Effort wasnt his only problem. Youre not at the bottom of so many stats if its just effort.

He's not skilled or saavy at all.

He cant keep with the leagues skill/efficiency revolution.

Lets say youre trying to build a successful team.... he's undesirable in 9 out of 10 team build configurations... if im being naive and generous.
Yep, he's a throwback to the 90's. He'd be ballin' next to Stackhouse, Sprewell, Walker, Mercer, Francis, Mashburn, etc. Oh, wait, those guys were entertaining, nm.

Not sure why the discussion even continues in regards to Lazy Boy.....how he is now is how he will be. The Pups got Mungered with his contract and are stuck with him for the duration. Use your disdain elsewhere....you'll feel better!

it's like he hasn't heard about the step back three. how many times does he find an opening to shoot a foot inside the line, but doesn't have the wherewithal to step back and make it a three? christ, you see middling guys on college rosters doing the step back.

He’ll have a good performance sometime in March, and we’ll all be told to learn the game.

It’s been five years of the same predictable bs...

3s, cuts, on the break and straight line drives. It's not rocket science. Until someone can either convince him this is how he can be most effective or bench him when he doesn't listen Andrew is a lost cause.

Yep. Dude is a lazy ass fucker. Paid all that money and he stands around. What do you think about that fanboy Unfadeable?

I'd like to see the guy rack up 4 or 5 fouls a game on defense. At least he'd be getting active at something.

What, do you guys expect him to try the whole game? He needs to save that energy for his next big game in a few weeks so we can learn the game.

RT @thedailywolf: Wiggins reminds me of Wes Johnson in that some people called him Ghost Johnson because you almost didn't even know when he was on the court. Too many long stretches of nothingness.

40 minutes and zero assists. How is that even possible?

He was awful tonight... :thumbsdown:

Seriously how long did the good effort streak last 10ish games? And now a stretch of like 4 games since the OKC game that he is completely not trying his best...

He had a very poor shooting night but he got some tough rebounds in the final 5 mins and played some defense. He was a +7 in real plus minus, best on the team tonight.

He played poor, we need a lot more from him. Can't count on these Rose explosion games too much because he gets hurt after them.

wiggins problem is that he's just another guy on the team. he has some okay games. he has a lot of meh games. very rarely does he have a game where he is the difference maker to the wolves' benefit. all in all, it's just nowhere near what we should be getting out of a guy who's making $148M.

i can't help it, but when i watch him play - i'm often caught thinking "okay, i've been watching him lazily meander around doing nothing for X amount of minutes. and during that time he just made twice what i make in an entire year." it's hard to escape ill will in that situation - and, for me, at least it all stems from chronic lack of effort. i'd readily forgive 3 for 14 shooting nights if he just busted his ass out there. but he doesn't.

if doris burk comments on it, and jim pete comments on it, and the national media comment on it, and we all comment on it - it's got to also be something sitting squarely on the main plate as saunders deals with wiggins, don't you think? the elephant in the room. i wonder what is said between the coaching staff and wiggins concerning this.

hey - been skooching around some nba rumor sites, and saw this out of utah. they're looking for a back court mate for mitchell who can create his own shot - also looking for some way to move derrick favors. the only thing holding this back - other than willingness from either team, would (i think) be an okay from rose.

What is your problem/obsession? The way you cock off and tell everyone to learn the game when Andrew Wiggins has one decent game a month is pathetic, yet choose to ignore 95% of the rest of his games which he lays an egg. Andrew is a one-trick pony and hurts this team more than helps it. It's been this way for five years. Wake up.

I said he needs to play better no doubt. But he played defense and rebounded. Everyone always complains, if he’s not scoring, he needs to do something else.

He’s playing defense this year.

So shut your mouth and know your role.
