Of course you didn't, why would an article say someone was somebody they weren't? and I agree, he's a helluva player, but the best since LeBron?? time will tell...Laley23;1574297 wrote:I never saw an article saying Wiggins was LeBron.

CBF likes to say a lot of shit that isn't true. He only does it when people take shots at OSU. Strawman fallacy at it's finest. Deflects on the actual argument to take shots at the opposition's team/players even though it's not even true lolLaley23;1574297 wrote:I never saw an article saying Wiggins was LeBron.

One week ago...3pts, 2rbs vs Okl. State. Kid is super talented. Still questions about consistant effort and long stretches of MIA during games. And yes, comparisons.Try google..its really an amazing thing.Laley23;1574297 wrote:I never saw an article saying Wiggins was LeBron. I saw a lot that said he was the best HS player since LeBron.

I'm so glad he's back on this forum...OSU athletics is 100% flawless when he's here.
From an SB Nation article. THAT is exactly why the entire world hates Aaron Craft and calls him overrated.Ohio State senior point guard/leader/Wooden Award Nominee/Guy Who Just Plays To Win The Game And Does Things That Doesn't Show Up On The Stat Sheet/Guy Who Should Be The No. 1 Overall Pick per Dan Dakich, Aaron Craft
LOL you pick ONE game and call it effort? They won didn't they? The other week Craft had 7 pts and 5 turnovers in a LOSING effort to Minnesota. KU beat a top 25 team, though Wiggins was a non-factor.centralbucksfan;1574303 wrote:One week ago...3pts, 2rbs vs Okl. State. Kid is super talented.

Just did. 1st page has 10 results. None of them compare the two as equals. I have no desire to continue onto page 2.centralbucksfan;1574303 wrote:One week ago...3pts, 2rbs vs Okl. State.

No equals but lots of talk.

I read it. It basically mentions all the great HS players over the last 10 years (since Lebron) and talks about Wiggins game. They compare his length to McGrady, demeonor to Melo, potential to LeBron (in terms of being an NBA AS), etc. They actually mention they are not near the same player, and LeBron threw his 240 frame around in HS where Wiggins is 200 and plays more like a fluid, no contact player.Automatik;1574326 wrote:I'd like to read the GQ one, but don't have the time right now. No doubting he's been mentioned in the same breathe though....but like I said no equal comparison at a quick glance.

They dont say he is the next LeBron or anything. They basically say that these are the reasons why he will be #1 pick and why teams want him more than anyone since LeBron.
Most people are smart enough to know its retarded to ever say someone will be LeBron before they truly get to that point.
This is spot on.Heretic;1574312 wrote:My only real problem with Craft is the way the fanbase goes out of its way to make excuses for him when he's playing bad. He's a very good defensive player who is really limited offensively. Or maybe inconsistent is the better word, as he has shown the ability to have 20-point games, but shown an equal ability to be invisible.
But he can have a game where he is solid on defense and horrible on offense with more TOs than assists or steals and the main thing you'll hear is how he's a great guy doing everything he can and it's not his fault that everyone else sucks.
Right now, the team as a whole sucks. That includes him.
