Hot take, Wiseman is going to be really good

I think everyone may have overthought this. he’s a fucking freak of nature, you don’t need game-tape to show that.

Good call. Lots of Giannis comps on this thread, but that’s not quite it. I mentioned Orlando Shaq, but this is maybe even better

Warriors drafted Curry after the Timberwolves passed up on him (twice).

Warriors drafted Wiseman after the Timberwolves passed up on him.

There might be a trend here.

That’s my future MVP

Imagine thinking Anthony Edwards is better than this guy

“DeAndre Jordan with a slightly better jumper”

My favorite is the guys mocking the Deandre Jordan and Javale comps. Wiseman isn’t even as good as those guys. What a bust

    DeAndre Jordan with a slightly better jumper cracked me up. What does that mean when DeAndre’s jumper is non-existent?

    Wiseman was the number 1 recruit in the country, played 3 games in college and averaged 21, 10, and 3 blocks, and was 7’1 250 pounds. 7’4 wingspan, and could run and jump and shoot.

    Please stop with him being a shitty draft pick. Hindsight is 20/20, but he was the consensus number 1 pick before Anthony Edwards broke out.

    If you actually want the details and data it was easy to see why they liked him. Everyone still asks “Why don’t the Warriors get a big? Or Are the Warriors to small to win the title?”

    Jeez

    Everyone and especially the oldheads I hear talk ball, are really hype around a bigman with lots of potential with zero consideration on the downsides of having them.

    In 2022, Magic Johnson was even hyping up Wiseman, who has shown nothing and said he’ll contribute a lot to winning a chip for the Warriors. Spoiler alert, they didn’t need him.

    TBF, maybe Wiseman is never going to be that good. But he isn’t a “bust” fool. The Warriors are the WORST team right now for the younger players to develop and shine. Jordan Poole was the best player on the GSW for a long time, and he also won them a game in the NBA Finals… quite single handedly.

    Then Everyone witnessed what Draymond did with Jordan Poole. Especially those younger players… They witnessed it firsthand. Imagine the toxic cesspool environment. And Draymond is not Jordan or LeBron. There’s no excuse

    GSW handicap (and even ostracize) the younger players, just to favor that “core Trio”. Even when the core Trio is playing like shit. Steve Kerr coddles that TRIO like they’re babies… Draymond also played a big role in KD leaving.

    No wonder Bob Myers left. He just didn’t have the guts to make the right decision

    Wait… He only played 3 games in college?

    (Warriors fan) Yea that was one of the big questions about him. If he had the chance to show his game more would have undoubtedly been the 1st pick.

    OP, claiming to be a fan of the Warriors, shitting on a former player like this, is fucking stupid.

    Just goes to show how most guys here don’t know what they’re talking about and just parrot what’s popular.
