I can't think of another player in team history that I despise as much of Wiggins. No matter what, there has never been anyone lazier and more carefree than Andrew.

I love this guy, but I'd rather have Mickael Gelabale than Wiggins...heck maybe even Tanguy Ngombo.

We could get the exact same production out of Bazz for about 1 millions dollars.

Both of those guys were decent NBA players.

I'll say Derrick Williams....eh shit, I don't even mean that.

Oh my there are so so many. Strolling through memory lane with all those that others have already mentioned. Olowokandi and McCants are the two that stick in my mind that let me down the most.

Kandi-man is a pretty good center comp to Wiggins. First pick, athletic, lazy, unskilled, with a low BBIQ. He also didn't seem to give a shit about being a NBA basketball player.

Luke got a bad rap during his time here by fans. Not his fault he was forced to play completely out of position due to necessity. He was a backup point guard playing who really wasn't widely viewed as even a combo guard playing the starting shooting guard role. It was never going to be pretty, but I think for the most part he made the most of his opportunity he was given here.

I like the idea of shved.

Maybe not, he makes Wiggins look like Steph Curry.

Agreed 100%.

He failed at what was asked of him, but it should have never been asked of him.

I'll never forget him having to try and guard Kobe Bryant.

1. These are players the Wolves drafted or traded for to be the center of their franchise
2. These are players who were projected to be All-Stars (DraftExpress gave the Celtics an A+ for Green)
3. These are players who didn't reach that expectation, thus they are "despised"
4. I only included their performances through year five (McCants only played four seasons)

Based on the evidence, I think the Wolves would be a better team if you plucked Brewer and Johnson in year five.
