Parker and Randle studs. Wiggins Meh.

Wiggins = Demar derozan

Whew let's hope that's not at all he is.

Already looks to be a better athlete.

Looks? This wiggins overhype is crazy. Derozan is one of the most athletic players in the nba.

They share similiar bodies, game (more drive and finish vs shooting) , athletic/quick and passive at times

Wiggins is not Lebron is not Jordan.

I wasn't aware Randle could pass the ball or run the break in a Webber-like fashion.

He was pretty good at getting the ball to other players in the MSU game. Unfortunately, it was to the Spartans players.

I think he´s properly rated. It seems many fans have (sub-conciously) caught up with the fact that NBA scouts like to overrate athleticism, and developed some kind of reversed bias when it comes to these kind of talents.

The thing is, Wiggins isn´t just your typical "once-per-draft" overhyped athletic specimen with attitude problems. The kid can ball, and seems to have a good head on his shoulders, too.

Yes and Jeff Green is a top 5 SF...

Nah, I don't agree.  He alreayd looks to be a better athlete.  DeRozan is a great leaper but his first step is not as quick and he isn't as blinding fast in the open court.  Wiggins is like Rose fast in the open court and he's bigger.

This guy is going to be one of the VERY best athletes in the NBA as soon as he gets drafted.

Well put.  I agree there is suddenly some disbelief that Wiggins is a great prospect amongst some.

Great article on this by SBN's Tom Ziller:

Right now, Wiggins' mediocre at best handle puts him out of reach of McGrady and Wade comparisons.  The handle and passing ability enabled both guys to double as points.  I'm not sure Wiggins is ever going to have that ability.

He's been compared to Paul George and I like this comparison the best.  They have similar size and if Wiggins can improve his shooting and handle like George has and play to his defensive potential, I think he can be that kind of player.  The way George has played this season, that's not a knock at all.

Randle = Chris Webber
Parker = Carmelo Anthony
Wiggins = bigger Dwayne Wade
