Are we just going off of game 4?
Klay was better than Wiggins in game 3.
Wiggins is a much better athlete rebounder and defender than klay. Wiggins is making an impact all over the court
Wiggins has been the 2nd best GS player in this Finals. His impact guarding Tatum has been huge.

Wiggins has absolutely been their 2nd best player in this series. Maybe/probably the entire playoffs.
But I still rank them
Steph
Klay
Dray
Wigs
Poole
Wiggins time is coming where he will jump Dray and eventually Klay. Wiggins benefits a lot from those guys (which isn't a knock). He is not capable of being a #1 on a championship team imo. But as a piece, in the right culture/environment, he's thriving in his role as defensive stopper.

Why? Because you are thinking of the player that Thompson used to be? Him and Green are aging and Wiggins is blossoming.
Wiggins is obviously the 2nd best player on this team and that gap will continue to grow moving forward

Klay is not nearly as washed up as you keep implying.
Since he returned he has games of: 41pts, 38pts, 37pts, 36pts, and 33pts 2x.

yea maybe.
I missed most of the game cuz I had to watch the goddamn beavs baseball instead.
Wiggs hit a shot and the announcers said, "that's the first time Wiggs attacked the basket this half."
but right on cue, Wiggs just attacked and scored again

Just unsure how 1 grown man watching a college baseball game prevents another grown man from watching the NBA finals.

LOL
I know you’ve been busy watching oregon state baseball but steph curry had 34pts in game 1, 29pts game 2, 31pts game 3, and 43pts in game 4.
There are only 2 possible MVPs in this series. Curry or Tatum.

Curry and Wiggins combined to shoot 0-15 from 3 and GS won by 10. Crazy

Wiggins outside shots and free throws seem like they hit the rim so hard. Not a very soft shooting touch.

Things seem to be peaking for KU in many ways. With the Elite pros we have and the recent ‘ship. Maybe we can rattle off few years of even greater success.
Hard to believe it’s possible after being a fan during the greatest period in our program’s history.
