This. Well, at least in 2014.

LeBron's shooting has dropped off this season and last season, but he was a pretty decent shooter in Miami.



To be fair, I was saying that in how early (Pretty much 6/7 years in Cleveland) he was pretty belowaverage-average. Went to Miami, had above average couple of years, and now is back to that below-average spot.

Still dominated.

I don't see why it'll take simmons a while when he plays into the flow of the game like LeBron. Wiggins is going to end up 2nd fiddle to KAT, but he's improved from 1->2 pretty quickly and Simmons is arguably the better prospect and complete player.

I don't think Simmons is a better prospect than Wiggins.

To me, Wiggins doesn't do enough in other areas to have him higher than Simmons.

He's 20 months older, and I think by the time Simmons is Wigggins' current age, he will have improved his shot enough to become one of the better all-around young players in the league.

I think they both might end up the second best player in their respective draft classes, tho.

He hasn't?

yes. he has not. hes a top 5 player in the NBA and is the #1 player on the spurs right now. he wasnt back in 2014. that team really didnt have a main player and relied on the group much like the 2004 pistons

define #1 player.

Andrew Wiggins is a good young player, he's not the Canadian LeBron, but he's good.

Looks like the Rockets are all the way done with Lawson
