I was thinking the same thing. I only read it cause I wanted too not because bleed dictated me do it. Unless...bleed has me brainwashed. Wait are we part of a cult? I will not drink the Kool-aide. Now if it's the green Melon flavored Powerade I'm all in. I probably shouldn't have said that...

Having said all that it was an interesting read. I like and get a kick out of how Wiggins is clearly both positive about his and his team's abilities and competitive.

Sidenote: He said Dunn and Payne shocked people...

I am also a fan of Green Melon Powerade, and that was before Bleed told me to be.
Maybe AW was "Shocked" at how bad Payne was.

I prefer the lime/cucumber Gatorade! Sounds gross, tastes grrrrrreat!

The last question and answer were interesting given the rumors that Wig despised KG.

Reading or listening to a Wiggins interview is probably about as informative as talking to an empty chair. Same thing with KAT, although he's a bit more animated. You simply don't really know how they really feel about stuff....and that's probably OK. These guys are well trained on giving politically correct, watered down answers.

Oh, and they must also be sick and tired of the KG-as-mentor question. My god, every interview conducted with these guys for the past 9 months has had at least one or two questions about how its like to have KG on the team. So I can see why they have "stock" answers to such questions. I'd do the same thing.

To me, the part that is being glossed over by Wiggins is that there is a Lime and Cucumber flavored Gatorade. What else is he hiding?

Yes, these guys get asked questions that you know will not elicit a candid response. That was one of them. I'm not saying the rumors are true about Wig and KG, just that we may never know the truth.

And now it's Thibs turn for a Q&A. KAT, Wiggins and LaVine are mentioned again as the core, but Ricky and Dieng are thrown in, too. Most likely our starting lineup?
