If you put him on an NBA roster today, you wouldn't be able to tell he was just 17 years old by the way he plays.

Honestly guys you I always hope days like yesterday would occur but often after a huge tournament the Canadians come up small ( like the rest of the world ) . It is an amazing thing that both Barrrett did and Canada and hope the media gives these guys the prop they deserve .

I mean, Wiggins is a good player. But he's nothing special.
Milos Raonic is another one. He's an AWFUL tennis player. An awful tennis player. Never won a Grand Slam in his career and i doubt he wins one. But the Canadian media talks about him like he's Roger Federer. Just ridiculous.

I think Wiggins could end up an elite player still. His offensive game has been more or less as advertised; his defense has been extremely disappointing, but now he's got one of the league's best defensive coaches as well as a stud in Butler to mentor him.
Great game by Canada today! Really like the way they keep pushing the tempo, even when being up big.
