Let’s dig into Wiggins:

He is 19th out of 19 on Wolves (of players who have played a game this season) with Offensive Win Shares with a -0.6 compared to KAT being best with 5.3
***Win Shares are easily the best metric for evaluating the offensive play of a single player because it accounts for almost everything and scales the result so that one OWS is actually equal to one win added to the team's cause.

He is 12th out of 19 in Win Shares at .5 compared to KAT’s 8.0

Win Shares Per 48 he is 15th out of 19 with 0.014 compared to KAT at .203 (League average is .100)

VORP he is 19th out of 19 with -0.5 compared to KAT at 4.2 so he is below replacement level player

He is 13th out of 19 in PER with 12.1 compared to KAT 25.6

He is 13th out of 19 in True Shooting % with .481 compared to KAT .616

Shooting Stats:
*He is 12th on team in shooting % from 3 point line (28.1% of his shots come from here)
*He is 14th on team in shooting % from 16 feet to 3pt line (17.6% of his shots come from here)
*He is 12th on team in shooting % from 10 feet to 16 feet (14% of his shots come from here)
*He is 8th on team in shooting % from 3 feet to 10 feet (14.9% of his shots come from here)
*He is 13th on team in shooting % from rim to 3 feet (25.3% of his shots come from here)

For a max player he looks everything like a replacement level player

wiggins wasn't shit tonight - 6 rebounds, 2 steals, 2 blocks - that kind of stuff helps the team. but what he was was completely pedestrian. he's a crappy shooter who takes too many shots. the team (ryan!) needs to start treating him like just any other player on the roster. we can't compound the problem of paying him too much money by thinking "well, he's been PAID a lot so he has to SHOOT a lot". no. just no. he's just another guy on the roster at this point. as a player, andrew reminds me a bit of a less fired up, worse three point shooting j.r. smith. and, like was the case with j.r., he should just be another rotational guy who often spends time on the bench. AW's career mpg is 36 - J.R's was 27. that's where we should be heading with andrew.

We can get his exact production from someone else. He hurts this organization by playing every game.

except, as i pointed out in an earlier post, we inexplicably have a better winning percentage when andrew shoots like crap - and a worse winning percentage when he shoots well. them's the numbers - i know, it's weird.

I see dumb and dumber are in the thread talking nonsense again. I literally don't understand the logic. Serious question to Unfadeable and Jodaman, are you guys mentally challenged? It's a serious question because I don't like making fun of the challenged at all, but if you're just dumb I'll go right on with it.

At this point, I think it has to be a bit. Right? I mean, no one can seriously watch him throw up brick after brick, be a non-factor 95% of the game, play like the laziest person ever, and think that he's a good player. So yes, it has to be a bit with those two. If it isn't and they are dead serious, then holy shit.

I will continue to bash him when I see fit, as I would with KAT or any other Wolves player.

Right now I am taking a wait and see approach because I am hoping for good things out of him and KAT along with Saunders. I want this current group to succeed (we haven’t even seen the current full team healthy together under Saunders). I love that Taylor is still pushing the playoffs, although the Wolves are going to need some players in LA and Sac to get hurt for that to happen.

I find it easier to be positive by having some hope of making the playoffs. So sitting and ranting about Wiggins and reading about Wiggins in every thread is just counterproductive and stupid to me right now. You don’t think they have tried to trade him??!! They have listened to offers and the offers are ass rape. He’s not going anywhere, along with the fact they don’t have a better option to take his spot - that is the reality.......choke on it.

In the words of a Great Great man: “Just Win and the rest will take care of itself.”

That man is Tom Thibodeau. An idol and messiah to many followers here. :bow:

We won the game, we are on a 3 game win streak.

Karl Towns wants Wigs here, Ryan does too. Wigs wants to be in Minnesota yet so many of you still are crying and complaining.

This is why I win every time.

Just watching last night's game now against the Knicks. Andrew is seriously stupid. Everything he does is the wrong decision. Just garbage. The worst part is listening to the announcers talk about how he sucks for 3/4 of the game because he sucks.

I would take any player on the Knicks over him. Dotson is already better.

It's because the whole "Butt cancer" thing.

Joda is all in on the Wolves winning because he said they would be better without Thibs and Butler.

He's "All in" on that take. He will call me a thibolyte or whatever the fuck, when I didn't like Thibs or Butler.

There is no doubting this team sucks more ass without them though.

No. I value the 1st more than KLove at almost 31. Probably in the minority though.

To get rid of Wiggins you need to attach a first. Getting Love back would be interesting.

It’s not a terrible idea by any means but I’m still a no. We need cheap players that are cost controlled going forward.

So do the metrics that says he's a below replacement level player. Never mind those though.

Alright, I'm done. This shit is too stupid for me anymore. Go ahead and keep blowing an average at best player. You'll get no more argument from me.
