Wiggins only compares to LeBron in athleticism, but people read that as: "wiggins is the next LeBron"
As such, there is no way he lives up to the hype. Especially because he went through high school relying solely on his athleticism and not understanding the finer points of the game. He can't just power through people in college. As such, he will struggle until he figures it out. Everyone like him does.
I would be shocked if Randle doesn't get taken first. Randle is the best Freshman since Davis. Wiggins is young though, so there is that.Last edited by ChalkyDog; 11-12-13, 03:17 PM.Comment -

He won't even average 25 a game like he did.
Maybe another Darius Miles/Stromile Swift in the making. You never.
But I guess when you end up on a bad team and get minutes you'll put up "numbers"Comment -

#6Durant was the best prospect since LeBron. Davis was the best prospect since Durant.

I highly doubt Lebron had the all-around game when he came out of highschool that Wiggins already has. Only problem is the IQ and the demeanor, and there James beats him by a large margin, so does Jabari and Randle (the demeanor part at least).Comment -

#9Are you trolling ? (honest question) Or are you actually mistaking Randle for Wiggins?

The only Caveat to Randle's game is his age. Meaning his dominance is slightly misleading considering he is older than most Sophomores. Whereas Wiggins is young, even by Freshman standards. He came into last season as a High School Junior and reclassified.
Without reclassification Wiggins would still be a senior in High School.Comment -

#13Wiggins not really that impressive so far.
There was this guys on Sportsnet Canada tv talk show basically deepthroating Wiggins for like an hour saying how we'll be blown away and this and that when he plays at Kansas.
Still waiting.
I'd bet a million dollars he won't put Durant Numbers in 1st year college...Comment -

#16I believe Wiggins is the best player in the college game right now. Let's not fixated on his PPG......both himself and Bill Self said he wouldn't have gaudy numbers. He's a team guy, and wants to win. A lo of talent around him.Comment -

#23If Wiggins doesn't go #1 that GM will be fired in 3 years.
Randle, Gordon, Parker, Smart all gonna be Very Good/Great NBA Players.
Randle is the best player in the college game however, 3 college bigs can't stop him from at least getting to the line. Make the defense gameplan nearly impossible.Comment
