Yeah I'm hoping some team can take a chance on the "change of scenery" argument. Popovich?

Maybe he and Tim Hardaway Jr can get together and figure that out. Just bizzare for both guys who are not particularly efficient but yikes bad this year.

One thing that may help with Wiggins contract is he is making money based on this year's cap. Money is gonna keep going up and some teams have to weigh paying Wiggins a bunch of money or the next Lavine Hardaway Bantum etc.



Tim Hardaway, despite the poor shooting, actually grades out as a much better offensive player than Andrew Wiggins. While both grade poorly on defense... Hardaway is abysmal.

In any event, for the 4th straight season, Hardaway will finish with a + VORP. Wiggins has yet to do that in his career.


I'm only taking about shooting percentages. Both guys are shooting ridiculous career lows from all kinds of spots. Look it up its bizzare. I've said before I wouldn't be surprised if Hardaway ends up being much more effective for Dallas than he was anywhere else.

Yes. Hardaway's overall fg% is a terrible 38.8%.

But he is 85.4% from the line (2nd highest of career) and 34.7% behind the arc, which is a tick above his career average.

To be fair, Wiggins is also slightly above career averages on three pointers (33.2% vs. 33.0%)

Apparently Wiggins had a good game last night. I'm gonna bump this thread just to ensure everybody know Wiggins still sucks.

It seems like KG and Wiggins have a great relationship including KG being able to call him out. I didn't sense Wiggins being insulted at all, seemed like friendly banter. You calling someone a bitch on the internet repeatedly comes across a little more creepy to me.

Weird reply, but that's okay. Took it as KG calling him out saying he still needs a fire lit under his ass [again]... since he can't do it himself. And yeah, those three have good relationships, but you can easily sense the disappointment from KG.

No doubt that kg is a disappointed, but that also means he sees something there.
