He's not Lebron James. He won't make an impact immediately.

"Sure things" in a super hyped draft like Wiggins, Jabari have higher expectations.
Guys like LBJ, Durant, griffin etc were ripping the league from day 1
If you watched him in college, you'd realize he was very raw and was being drafted on potential. To expect him to drop 20 in his first game is just setting yourself up for disappointment.

It's one game. Literally one game. It's okay to make constructive criticisms of their games and what they need to work on...but in the grand scheme of things this game will not matter. At all. And if not a few years, at least give them a few months. You don't just "snap" into being an all-star player right out of college. Not everyone is Lebron James or Tim Duncan.

NBA lottery pick
Re: Wiggins is out here looking like he never played basketball before
That's what happens when
1. His coach plays him for 18 minutes...(yes he was in foul trouble for a little bit, but he could've played way more)
2. He touches the ball like 6 times all game - literally. The rest of the team played the first half like he didn't exist...

Durant scored 18 points on 7-22 shooting in his first game. I don't know if I'd call that "ripping it."
And, Wiggins was never going to be that kind of offensive player right out of the gates. Even his biggest fans never intimated such a thing. It shouldn't be a newsflash to anyone whose studied these guys that Wiggins was the rawest of the guys at the top of the 2014 draft class.

Re: Wiggins is out here looking like he never played basketball before
This is why Cleveland does that trade 10 out of 10 times. You know Kevin Love is a star. We have no idea what Wiggins will be yet.
People bashing the Cavs for making the trade like Wiggins is the next Jordan.

None of the rookies so far have had great games. Even "NBA ready" Jabari Parker only had 8 points on 3/9.

Marcus Smart and McDermott have been the best so far.
