That Wiggins step-back is amazing. End all "Wiggins passive" talk forever, reinstate all "Self's system makes wings passive" talk.

Explaining to people how impossibly amazing it is for a freshman to average his numbers in KU's system is just lost on deaf ears.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
Dribbling looks like a major inconvenience to Wiggins. He's not bad at it, it just looks like the ball is behind him in time.

Reminds me of Paul George. Too tall to be effective at it.

He jumps like a young Nerlens Noel...wait

He didn't get a lot of driving chances at KU, so that's a skill he hasn't developed enough yet, but it's not like he was coached on it and it still didn't sink in.

He needs to get on Irving's handling drills stat and he'll be a super star.

Wiggins is faster than his handle. No reason he can't play off the ball 60% of the time

If he's a serviceable NBA player the Cavs are going to be really loving good next year. Incredible in 2-3 years.

He plays with a lot of energy and it doesn't look as hilariously inept when it actually goes in.
