2 years ago when they forced him to be an All Star, they were spamming the shit out of the “2-way Wigs” nickname. It was the first words out of every player and coach’s mouth.

Why don’t they just scream this propaganda again and make him good?

    There’s a certain level of play where nicknames don’t stick around anymore and Wiggins already exceeded that.

    Also Wiggins had way cooler nicknames, come on man.

    Not to mention there’s a whole fanbase that envies his success.

    Man this is kind of irrelevant but this reminded me that I’m kinda glad the Warriors are falling off because they are easily collectively the corniest organisation in the league. From Steph’s stupid little dances whenever he makes a layup to Draymond and to just small annoying stuff like this. Yes I’m a hater. To answer your question it’s bc Wiggins sucks ass now

      I’ll enjoy watching your irrelevant organization continue to waste Luka until he moves on to somewhere he has an actual chance of winning a championship

      People on here love to hate Steph for some reason, he is one of the most entertaining players of the past decade. He is good and has fun playing the game

      I get hating Draymond and Warriors fans, but only after he retires will some of you learn to appreciate Steph

        That’s all on the marketing department, baby. The actual fanbase is too busy eating crow about the roster and praying on the downfall of the Bucks.

      You hate them because they completely dominated your team dude, not because of whatever made up reason. You’re saying they’re more corny than Ja Morant’s grizzlies or Tatum’s celtics? Bruh.

    Two Way Wiggins sounds like a nickname somebody comes up with in a thread titled, “We need to come up with a nickname for Andrew Wiggins!”

    And since we are on the subject: why don’t we call this subreddit r/nbacirclejerk anymore? In my pc it reads r/nba, but this is clearly shitposting.

    Wiggins won a chip and got his third contract.

    He doesn’t care anymore. This is how he looked before he got traded the first time.

      You mean back we was averaging 20+ on average-above average efficiency?? This is not that Wiggins.

        Well he gets less shots now because he’s not being shoe-horned into being a top offensive option for the team (that honor goes to Klay)

        and Wiggins definitely never had above-average efficiency when he was in Minnesota

      I ate crow when he was such a valuable piece of that title team. After watching him in minny for years I just didn’t think he could be a valuable contributor to any serious team. He just didn’t do enough things during a game.

      So ya, totally agree this is the Wiggins we saw. Floats around, very few effort plays, still a few highlights from his athleticism but ultimately just doesn’t really seem to care enough to really impact winning.

    To all the Warriors fans who thought Wolves cannot develop players - THIS is how he looked before the trade, and that’s why Wolves had to attach 1st round pick to get rid of Wiggins and acquire Dlo. The difference is he was giving you 40 points once in a month and you thought we might have finally unlocked him and win it all.

      This is lies lol. He was averaging 20+ on average to above average effenciency. But not playing hard or smart beyond that.

      This year, right now Wiggs is playing hard and good defense (Warriors have a top 10 defense) but he can’t make a shot.

        Nah that other comment is what I saw too. Could fill up points on a stats sheet but never made winning plays and zero effort doing anything else. He had people fooled for a while (including you still, I guess)

      The wolves have a new owner. So of course they are different now. The previous owner was bad and it permeated through the organisation. Even the warriors were lucky that Larry Ellison did not get ownership of the warriors.

    Is it possible he’s phoning the season in to keep himself healthy for Team Canada?

    It’s not worth it, Wiggins. You and the rest of the world are going to get trounced by the LeVengers.

    I hate to burst the Warriors hate bubble but we’re still at the stage of the season where random variation in 3 point shooting matters a lot.

    • Klay — 34% on 7.5 attempts
    • CP3 — 16% on 3.4 attempts
    • Wiggins — 15% on 2.4 attempts
    • Kuminga — 18% on 2.2 attempts

    They definitely need a legit 2nd option to contend and maybe not all of these guys reach their prior heights but things aren’t gonna stay like this for them.
