i think wiggins is what he is. his scoring numbers can improve but thats it. been saying that for a while now. they'll need a player better than him to play second fiddle to kat
I think he should not try to have his scoring numbers improved and let KAT carry them offensively instead of what happened the last two games. Seems like he uses too much energy on the offensive side, instead he could average 21ish and be a good ass two way player, cuz he can defend when he wants.

for sure. kat needs to be the guy. wiggins can be the secondary guy, just needs to start playing smarter and on both sides. he still has untapped potential. i just dont see him reaching it.

But someone who can actually pass the ball if he's not scoring

is this the same Suns team that everyone was calling OKC out for because they barely beat them?

Turns out that Andrew Bogut was really the unanimous mvp

okc was at home

And to quote KG, KD is "cancerous to his team and our league"

I just don't see how Draymond Green is going to last on this team. His personality won't allow him to be content with such a small role.

That was my thought too if they were gonna have issues.
Of course i thought kd would fit seamlessly but if you had to pick a reason if they didnt...

They're a great team, they'll win this game and a lot more. 
 
Draymond will be happy at first, but I just can't see him being okay with this in the long haul. He's not a match up nightmare if he doesn't have a large role. The problem he posses for opposing teams is he can take your PF/C off the dribble, passing ability off PnR. Doesn't really matter if he doesn't get the ball.

They dont have depth and the bench anymore, thats what made em so good. Will still have a good rs but in the playoffs theyll struggle

Should trade klay for a rim protector and bench scorer

To add to your point cheato, then dray can go back to being the third guy and with enough scoring from KD n curry , theyd be fine without klay imo. Draymonds game and what he does defensively is hard to replace

Yea I don't think they'd trade Klay over Draymond. Interesting thought, but doesn't seem like a move they'd make.
 
They may not even trade Draymond down the line, he just doesn't strike me as a guy who will be fine with being just another guy, because that's really all he can be with this team now.
