After the draft, I was arguing with some Warriors Fans that Toppin is a better pick then Wiseman, but Fans were like “No Wise is much better”. After these years,I think it is proven that Toppin is just much better as a ball player. And these Warriors fans are like “well…any player is better than Wiseman”. Damn. It is like “Head I win, Tail you lose.” with these ppl.

Ableism is normalized and disability and disabled people are freely used as a punchline. Like this is literally a fucking slur.

It’s not like obi toppin has shown anything either. The knicks traded him away.

Topping is actually gonna stick around in the league for a little longer (hopefully more than a little), Wiseman probably won't. But in terms of the draft both teams made horrible mistakes lol

Obi Toppin is garbage

[–] richonarampage@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Damn people harsh in here. I’m rooting for Toppin. He plays with joy. He was never going to properly develop behind Randle. Playing in Indy and especially playing with Haliburton is gonna get this man paid. Though their skill sets are different I could see his career arc being similar to his now teammate Bruce Brown.

Obi Wan's force projection > Wiseman

It's like me going out and saying "I knew Stanley Johnson would be better than okafor" and expecting people to applaud. I've seen grade schoolers with more sense than this

Hey me too. Let's applaud each other

The fact that you're making a whole ass post about this just tells everyone that you're not right that often so this is a special occasion for you lol

Obi Toppin is going to have a big season.

That’s you’re pre-draft flex? That you called out one bust by predicting another guy who busted a little less would be better?

How much scouting were you able to really do on wiseman? He didn’t have a lot of footage. I’m assuming you saw some highlights and just decided you didn’t like his game, which is fine, however he wasn’t drafted based on what he could do, but rather what he was projected to be able to do in the future.

Toppin is 25 and wiseman is 22, so that’s still a thing as well.

The smartest 2020 draft outlook was pretty much “this is really difficult because a worldwide pandemic shut down the most important part of the year. I have no clue how these guys will pan out. Especially wiseman and lamelo since we hardly have real footage on them”
