Some Robins become Batmans, but I don't think Wiggs was in a good spot to do that in Minnesota. Jimmy Butler really exposed that franchise.

KAT also kind of peaked early.

I think Wiggins is best suited to be a Robin if winning titles is the goal.

Jimmy Butler is a good comp. But Jimmy is a much better facilitator. Both not great outside shooters.

I think Wiggins is a lot more likely to play hard and work hard in a winning environment. In a spot like Minnesota it's tough to play hard night in and night out on a mediocre team. The change of scenery was great for him.

I think Kerr has played an enormous role Wiggins’ evolution. Much like HCBS Kerr is good at defining players’ roles and getting the best out of the team. Remember when he put Igoudala on the bench during the first championship run? Wiggs may have finally found his “fit”

This is a rough finals for Wolves fans.

They took both Rick Rubio and Johnny Flynn over Steph Curry. That's worse in hindsight, but still.

Effectively traded Wiggs and Kuminga for D'Lo Russell. lol.

Just got to the bay and to some big urban commercial district. Lots of TVs and jazzed up dubs fans.

I keep asking “if they win it is this place gonna be a Mass St party all night?”, but I don’t think anything compares.

Either way, fun to be in an amped up fan atmosphere!

Putting iguodala on the bench had nothing to do with iguodala. He was trying to get some confidence for Harrison Barnes and get him going. That was who replace iguodala

Is there a good player with worse handles than Jaylen Brown? Good God, he needs to figure out how to dribble a basketball near other players.

Wiggins LOCKED down Tatum.
Headlines in Boston will be about Tatums lack of fire when it counts.

Warriors get another.
I think they have the horses to do it again but they gotta figure out a way to keep Wiggs.
