Parker was as expected offensively. He's just one of those hard to find three-level scorers. He is so fun to watch offensively. Body-wise, I think Pierce is the only apt comparison because like Pierce, he has a dumpy looking body which is very unusual for an elite NBA wing. I mean, the only other great NBA wing that I can remember having a Pierce-type body was Mark Aguirre.
The willingness to shoot puts Parker more along the lines of Carmelo than Pierce for. I always thought Pierce could get gun shy or turn off the tap, whereas Carmelo could fire away with no conscience. Parker's more along that spectrum with hopefully fewer long-twos.
Defensively, I don't see how Parker's going to be a good individual defender. Unlike Pierce whose lateral quickness belied his physical appearance, Parker's lateral quickness looks legitimately below-average. Regardless, he looks to have the activity level and smarts to be a good team defender.
One thing I've been really impressed with Wiggins thus far in his extremely short college career is his defensive potential. He contains dribble penetration extremely well and the great quick hops he shows on dunks, he employs to contest shots. It's great to see. If only he was a little more skilled he'd be a can't miss player.
