    I really hope we can get this guy. Just keep him away from cocaine and we'll be good. What could've been if his pops wasn't busted...

    Well it looks like Andrew Wiggins status may be reclassified making him eligible for the 2013 draft.... That would mean there are 3 potential franchise players in the 2013 NBA draft ....looking at statistics this may be our best time to tank.

    I am sorry, I had a brain fart. I mean't to say Wiggins may graduate high school in 2013 and not 2014. He would probably spend a year at Kentucky.

    My thought exactly. "His name is really Andrew Wiggins?"

    The enemy's gate is down!

    Mix tapes highlights don't generally impress me, but two things I like about what I say was his handles look elite and he is able to shoot off the dribble. If he is able to do that he is going to be special.

    However, it still appears that his mind moves faster than his body, he always appears to be out of control.

    Yeah yeah Clutch...... Man I had not idea this was Mitchell Wiggins son. When I heard the last name Wiggins, Mitch Wiggins was the first thing that pop into my mind. And yes he and Lewis Lloyd we busted for cocaine. Both were Rockets. Man oh man Lewis Lloyd was almost unstoppable going coast to coast with the ball in his hands even on drugs.

    I also remember the days of Dallas with with the cry baby dude (Mark Aguirre), then Adrian Dantley with the high floater killed us all the time it seems like. And Dallas with Roy Tarpley. wow lots of history.

    Hakeem Olajuwon punching guard Robert Reid in the face in practice one day for spreading roomers that he was taking and using drugs.

    Robert Reid used to have a night club over on Richmond street just west of Chimney rock back in the day (west of Rick's Boat). I digress.

    Wiggins will be a fantastic scorer, but I don't think he will be half the defender and playmaker Pippen was. With that footwork he already possess, a Kobe comparison is justified, so I'll go with that.

    I think shabazz is a much better prospect than this guy and is in a higher athletic class than wiggins. This kids obviously got pretty good shot though!
