He has been shooting himself out of that slump and getting into a good rythem the last 2 games. It happens to every player. They get in a slump and have a few bad shooting games( His d has been solid those 4 games) then they recover.

I expect the hawks to make a run in the 2nd half. We have to withstand their run and win this one.

For the thousandth time, it's never about Wiggins being in a shooting slump. Well, at least it's never been about that for me. It's about what shots he's taking and whether or not he's settling. In those first four games, he was absolutely settling. He wasn't looking to attack, which frustrates the hell out of me when it comes to players that have natural, physical advantages over the opposition. Guess what he's done in the last 1.5 games? Attacked.

It really just comes down to that, whether or not we get the hungry, ready-to-attack version of Wiggins. It's a treat to watch and it makes him a completely different player.

If they can hold the Hawks to 42 in the 2nd half they only need 11 points for the win!!

Or if they score 60, we only need 31. Crazy.

But I'm still worried.....

Cam, Wig was still getting to the line at a good rate those first 4 games. He has the most ft's on the team, he wasn't just settling all the time like you make him out to be. He was just missing almost every shot not near the basket. The mid range game has always been part of wig's offense.

What is Sam saying in the locker room? Are they just watching first half highlights together?

Not able to watch the game but I hope it's as awesome as the score is telling me it is. What are the chances everyones just enjoying it and not focusing on the I told ya so side of it?

Rubio is shooting 50%, just sayin!

WIG SMASH!

Let's see if the Bucks will take Wiggins off our hands for GA. Stupid shit.
