Osyris All those comments about Wiggins potential on defense were based on his size, athleticism, length and stuff like that. We watched his high school mixtape when he was block the hell outta people shots and people assumed that he was the next great two-way player like Kobe, LeBron or Jordan... Scouts usually label people as great potential defenders based on their measurements which makes sense but if you don’t really put a lot of effort into defending it really doesn’t matter whether you have a the longest wingspan. Look at Butler, dude got T-Rex arms but he’s always a potential all-defense team because of how much effort he put into it.

Even the T'wolves are ranked 7th (higher than thunder and blazers) in rating and we just saw the problem between wiggins and towns. Sooooo...=/ might wanna rethink your assessment.

I was at that Wolves/Sixers game. Butler, Gibson and Teague carried that team to overtime. The Wolves would have the same record if you replaced KAT and Wiggins with two league average hustle players. At this point, Butler plays a similar style offensive game to Wiggins but with better efficiency and results anyway. Why not replace Wiggins with a defender in the starting lineup? Embiid would agree with the assessment of KAT's defense, I think.

I watch these clips (and game-play I've watched) and see Jimmy doing his best with what he's faced with on defense. Watching his teammates break down on D must be so frustrating for someone with his defensive prowess. He's communicating, helping, shifting and seemingly managing the wing as one of the best. Sadly at times I see his defense suffer from what must be either or a combination of physical and mental exhaustion. Coach Tibbs might have a stroke if he has to keep fighting this. I hope they sort it out before this roster looses a lot of talent. #SaltyBullsFan

Andrew Wiggins is easily the most disappointing number one overall pick in recent history. I can't believe he was the most hyped up draft prospect since LeBron. He's lucky to be good as Demar at this rate(This is coming from a Raptors fan). UPDATE: Wiggins is an awful playmaker(Averages more turnovers than assists), doesn't grab rebounds, and is a horrible defender). All he does is score, and he's meh at it(His Per, Box Plus, VORP, Win shares, Ts% are all mediocre). Demar was like that earlier in his career as well. He won't good as prime T-Mac or Kobe at all. That's why I said he's lucky to be good as Demar. Also 2013 draft didn't have prospects that was hyped up as Wiggins(Stop with the Anthony Bennett comments). Wiggins was viewed as a CAN'T MISS PROSPECT coming out of high school.

Harden doesn't put effort in on defense bc he's too damn tired,carrying the offense and he isn't the most athletic guy on the court. Harden is average on D this season, and Ik those are excuses but Harden needs an MVP he's been robbed. I'm a Thunder fan but even though I think Russ deserves his MVP just off the story alone,you can't deny that Russ has all the tools to be one of the greatest perimeter defenders EVER and is average. He doesn't have harden's problem of not having a good enough motor,or Harden's excuse of not being athletic enough, yet I don't see anyone bashing Russ for his poor defensive awareness.

He’s still not good, but he’s not in the bottom third of the league anymore. He’s actually a solid post defender too. Again, not anywhere “above average” but when he’s doing things on offense that only he and Cousins have been doing the last four years, average or slightly below average is tolerable. I hate Steph so it kills me to say it but he’s made improvements recently as well.

Wiggins also for a 6 8" athletic freak is doing bad on rebounds which is also underwhelming, to be fair they're both 22 and developing I see them getting better later on next season with the help of jimmy.

Jesse Alcantar You can't just say "they're old" as if they aren't effective. I agree they're old to the extent that we aren't guarding three pointers very well but Tom's defensive strategies are adopted by so many coaches in the nba now. He's not an amazing coach but he isn't as bad as people make him seem. The defensive problems shown in the video don't look entirely like a coaching problem but more of an effort and fundamentals problem. Advice from their teammates will be more valuable.

Points that a player directly gives up should count against their scored points. This would promote defense. Do this for a season to teach how important defense is. Players getting the supermax for scoring 25-30 when they give up 40 on the other end should be criminal but is happening all over the league

KAT thinks putting up both hands = defended, and Wiggins move like he's 35 years old. These are the bad habits developed during the tanking period that will haunt the team for years.

The part about the weird sliding with his hands above his head. I thought coaches wanted players to not get their hands in the cookie jar and use their chest to bump defenders and just contest the shot without fouling?

Coach, how do you gather film for this stuff? Do you get an idea for a video, then go look through games to support your video, or do you watch the games and then get ideas for your videos?

Wiggins is too overrated, he's a inefficient shooter and ,as you can see in the video, one of the worst defender in the league. If you replace Wiggins with Hayward the T-wolves will be 5th seed, at least

Sliding with the hands up for Towns is something that Garnett used to do a lot, so maybe that's why he does it. However he doesn't yet have the strength and tenacity that Garnett had, so he struggles to do this partiuclarly effectively, and his attitude to defence is not what it should be

Wiggins, to my eye, has played better individual defense this season than in years past. He definitely needs to give more effort though. It might sound weird, but I think sometimes he and KAT think too much rather than play.

i gotta agree - there are some terrible, don't care about defense-ass duos in the NBA but KAT + AW's ineptitude is rare. KAT looks lost on some of the most basic basketball plays, he's often lost on entire possessions, and doesn't have the athleticism to recover. it's why joel embiid's burn on him a few weeks back was so lethal, he really doesn't know how to play defense. still a great player otherwise, though.

guys it' s pretty obvious: The NBA wants to sell tickets and merchandise and THAT you do with great offfensive plays. Only in the POs defense skills (such as anticipation, effort, dedication, movement...etc) come into play. We all know the saying as it goes: offensive wins games (fans) and defense wins championships.

Wiggins boggles my mind. With him it looks 100% like a lack of effort and intelligence. You can make up for one or the other but not both. He was highly touted because of his defensive potential while being productive on offense. His offense has basically been the same or worse since year two while his defense has clearly gotten worse since he’s come into the league. That’s on coaching and what I’m guessing is a poor work ethic. You don’t get worse defensively when you’re not hurt unless you’re not putting in the time to actually learn the principles. Cleveland won the shit out of that trade. They had the better of the two in year one, and the gap has gotten wider every year since.

I’m gonna have to say pretty definitively the worst defensive duo is Harden and Westbrook who now play on the Rockets in 2019. Watching the games is extremely brutal their defense is so bad. Every game is like watching a bloopers tape it’s so horrific this year. I wouldn’t believe their defense could even possibly be that bad if I was not seeing it every night. If this keeps up the team I’d think will set the record for worst defense ever by probably all known slightly relevant metrics. It’s a complete disaster.
