With the NBA restarting next month, many teams have also launched reinforcement plans, and the Warriors have become one of the most scandalous teams in the trading market. The Warriors' trading target is undoubtedly the No. 2 pick this season, as well as the three major bargaining chips Wiggins and Green, especially Wiggins. From the moment the Warriors, Wiggins has not left the trading scandal.
Warriors really have no bottom on Wiggins?
Why did the Warriors trade Wiggins in the middle of the season? You must know that there were a lot of teams for Russell, including the 76ers. The 76ers even proposed to trade Simmons for Russell, but why did the Warriors insist on fulfilling it? Timberwolves, is it good to have friendship with Timberwolves? The answer is definitely no. You must know that in the early days of the trade, the Warriors management also went to watch a few Wiggins games.
What kind of player Wiggins is, wouldn't the Warriors know? If Wiggins is really worthless and the Warriors want to trade him away, then Simmons can be taken directly. The Warriors just bet Wiggins and let him play his talent on the team. If Wiggins cashes in on his talents, then he is definitely expected to become the top ten player in the league, so why can't Wiggins play in the six seasons of the Timberwolves?
Timberwolves’ positioning is vague.
Timberwolves traded to Wiggins before, mainly to develop him as a player like James, but you must know that although Wiggins has entered the league in technology, but not proficient. His shooting level and dribbling level are actually still a few grades different from top stars. The Timberwolves’ positioning is very vague. One will want to make him an all-around small forward, and then he will be regarded as the team’s number three, or even number four, plus Wiggins’ character. It also keeps Wiggins sinking.
Look at Ingram's several seasons with the Lakers, and then look at the performance of the Pelicans this season. In fact, the two have a lot of similarities. Although it is hailed as the core of the team, it is not the case in terms of tactical play.
Many people think that a top-ranked player like you should play like Durant and James, but they are all James, are they all Durant? Looking at the entire league, James has played for more than a dozen seasons. Now that player can take over his class, how many rookie models are James, but what is the final result?
The Warriors win in the 12 games of
in the Warriors, we clearly see one point, that is, Cole wants to transform Wiggins. You must know that when Wiggins came to the Warriors, Curry hadn't come back. He was the number one star with absolute shot rights, just like Russell before, but Wiggins did not. He averaged points per game. It's not even as good as the Timberwolves period, when the stadium is more of running, empty cuts, high positions, but the obvious point is that Wiggins's steals, blocks and other data are all career highs.
The Warriors also constantly emphasized Wiggins' defense during the offseason. Cole, Barbosa, and Livingston's management almost emphasized Wiggins' defense during interviews. Wiggins is a player with top defensive talents, and Wiggins’ growth path, we can refer to the current Clippers Leonard, the Warriors do not want him to become James, but hope he is the next A striker like Leonard.
The positioning of the Warriors for Wiggins is very clear, how Leonard got up, he was surrounded by GDP. With the accumulation of experience and the improvement of skills, gradually delegating power to allow Wiggins to participate in more singles, this is a generous avenue. Many people say that the Warriors are like the Spurs back then. Indeed, the Warriors are also following the Spurs' old path. And their GDP is still at its peak in a few years. The only thing the team lacks is Leonard's X factor.
So the Warriors will almost never trade Wiggins. If a transaction happens, it will be around the next season's All-Star Game. Unless Antetokounmpo decides to come to the Warriors, then it's another matter.
