You guys serious? Anyone of you watched a Timberwolves game? Paul Pierce could score on him from his wheelchair.


Is IT a better defender though?

He's also shit. But Wiggins, if he's guarding you, you're making your shot no matter what.

Wiggins is a horrendous defender, horrendous rebounder, and horrendous passer.

He's literally just a volume scorer at this point, after 3 years. He is not developing into the player people expected him to be at this point.

Makes me feel a little bit better knowing someone is actually equal to IT on defense
A foot taller though :ROFL:

ESPN Sources: Derrick Rose completed approximate 3-hour meeting with Los Angeles Lakers. Both sides felt good about it. Deliberation time.

I want to throw up. Would really spoil what's been a great off season for the front office.

I'm probably overreacting to what would probably be our 4th guard but Rose is exactly the opposite of the kind of mentor/backup I would want for Lonzo. He's a ballstopper, can't shoot, shitty defensive player, chucker, can't play off-ball and has a ton of off-field issues.

Plus we saw last year how detrimental it was when the starters and 2nd until had completely different play styles. Give me Deron Williams(still an elite P&R player and spot up off-ball) or Ian Clark(good defender and great off-ball) over Rose every day of the week.
