Oh I get it he is Giannis 2.0

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

Considering how few players, even those who make it to the NBA becomes stars, it's the weakest shit ever to call every prospect a bust. Yes, you're probably right. But that doesn't mean you know anything, you're just making the safest prediction possible to stoke your own ego when they bust. Well a majority of them bust so congratulations you bet on red and 75% of the numbers at the roulette table and won. Go you.

Spread the love! Hope big Jim develops. More good players is good for the league.

Kid’s 22, by all reports a decent hardworking person who just got fucked by injuries and is now sitting on the precipice of losing the dream he’s worked for his entire life, and OP’s out here digging up old threads of one of the few times he got to show what he could really do just to shit on him and call him a bust. Go touch grass, OP.

He was injured a couple times but he’s been healthy for a long time and shown almost no game awareness or ability to play any way except “give me the ball to go 1 on 1 or I’ll sulk”

He’s played 84 games in a 4 year career, including losing half his first year and his entire second year to injuries. Seriously, this kid is 22 years old. Spend your energy on something else.

Why are you online defending some scrub who is about to wash out of the league because he can’t win the backup center job on the worst team in the nba? Spend your energy on something relevant lol
