Yeah I agree. He comes from a tight knit family in the Toronto area. I think he is struggling with something personal

maybe that is really not his kid

@@seanjjpaul If he's got a tight knit family in Toronto, would a move to the Raptors help or screw him up more given more time and proximity?

@@Bobsyagod honestly not sure but I would only assume it would help. Especially the issues with his father which I think are health related.

it's not mental --- Grandma's Wiggs was exactly like this (but not as bad; yikes!) when he played for the Minneapolis Labradors

and because of that, the Jazz is on HOT STREAK!!! Their players figuring it out so fast tbh its great to watch.

And he’s shooting 39% from three

Yeah…using a two month old headline for the video and ignoring what has happened between them and now was atypically lazy for Casey! John Collins has been the perfect fit alongside Markkanen since that time!

No he's not

This is true. Now that he's shifted to center instead of power forward he's everything the Jazz hoped hed be when they traded for him

@@prodmoira You're basically saying that you've never seen a Jazz game this season.

@KingOfTheOdds I've seen almost every jazz game brother

Thats basically what he said minus the last sentence.

😂😂😂 top tier

Apparently someone thought that they were worth it at some point. Maybe nba teams start thinking about players character before handing out max money but I doubt it. Look up how much money Zuon Williamson makes.

the system is good enough right now, it's designed to protect players by having most of their money guranteed while allowing the teams as much freedom on how they want to pay the player, the problem you have exists but it's not the system's fault, its the teams giving out these ridiculous contracts on players that are obviously not worth it because not giving them what they want results in them just losing the player's outright, a good example of this thing done right was deandre ayton on the suns, guy was asking for max money but the team refused, they know whats up so they just flip him for whatever they can get instead of losing him for nothing, they get one of the best fit bigman in the league for their team and no horrible contract in sight, blazers fucked up though they just gave him the contract and is now regretting it

it's called TV money; the league & each NBA team are swimming in billions, so they can afford to give scrubs like Punching Bag Poole tons of undeserved salary

@@raeserec535 Yeah i prefer the NBA's system a lot more than the NFL's system since the players actually get compensated well and the bad contracts are never the players fault but rather the teams. It also stops teams from screwing over their players with unguaranteed money and all that like what happens at times in the NFL. This obviously helps every player but I would argue that it helps the mediocre role players the most since if they sign a 4 year 40 mil deal they are guaranteed that money no matter what even if they get an unlucky injury or something like that.

Owners don't have to offer it.

Is my music decent?

@@Ravon_Regular NO

People kept talking about a kid is not his.

It's only in the last 2 mins of a quarter where the clock stops

Haha, his words right?

I mean Doc is right about Ben Simmons not being motivated to play basketball.

@@emilfrederiksen.1622 Yeah, i mean I'm not trying to get Simmons off the hook, I just think it was a bit hypocritical for Doc to make that comment given his own track record, lol.

I might be remembering wrong but I think there was a time when he coached an East All-star team he benched the Miami big 3 and played all 5 Boston starters.

@@bard1847 I dont think there was ever once when all of the starting 5 of a team were voted into the all star game? The closest was the pistons with rip, billups, sheed and big ben? I mean imagine having perkins in the all star game lol.

Stop capping

Is my music decent?

Bruh STOP THE CAP

We should all report him

I DON’T GET IT

LMAO Goat comment

👀

me too

they would be kinda fine I guess. The Suns would be screwed though because they would not have Grayson Allen, Nurkic or Little. Their Starting Center would be Drew Eubanks and they would be outside they playoff picture by now

@@hualchr6697 yeah the Pacers game wise would be fine but that money would severely limit the future options

Nah

He has shown improvement lately, but still pretty far to living up to his contract. Maybe not bad enough to feature on this list, but a bad contract nonetheless.

Yeah like why not mention Tobias Harris like he's making slightly more money than Collins has, I mean he ain't bad but he ain't worth 30 to 32 million

@@konzza I agree that he's probably overpaid, but there are 2 main reasons it doesn't bother me: 1. It's not hurting the Jazz at all right now. They have a lot of value contracts throughout their roster, and they need to spend above the lower threshold in order to not be penalized so overpaying a player here or there isn't a big deal. 2. The contract gets less bad over time since the salary cap generally increases each year especially with new CBA. The last year of his contract his $26M will be more similar to an $18-$20 M contract this year.

@@phillipwitt4433 This is we where both do agree wholeheartedly 👍🏼 On several forums i have said the same thing in defence of Collins, that in Jazz's current roster salary situation his contract isn't least bit of an issue as one of the cheapest rosters in the league and meeting salary floor more of an issue than hitting the salary ceiling. It was somewhat weird seeing Jazz to stockpile PF position with Markkanen, Hendricks as their first pick and then taking Collins. My initial thoughs we're Ainge angling to trade Markkanen away, but not so sure about it anymore, as Collins is doing OK as a center and Lauri being as good as SF than PF. In their current form and seeing these rotations work in practise resulting into winning basketball, the current roster set-up finally makes sense even for a random couch potato like me 😃. Yes. Collins is overpaid. But as you said it wouldn't be a major issue for Jazz even without their upturn as a team.

True but elite players will continue to be elite because they will play for there next contract and are just naturally competitive if you gave Luka a 400 million 6 year deal he wouldn't stop being elite.

You are right, but like I said, only a slim percentage of players show or possess that competitive "top dog" mentality.@@emilfrederiksen.1622

Wiggs was only playing for the contract/money. Perfect timing with that chip GS won. He said it himself "We about to get a baggg" Too bad, Wiggins coulda been a star. He doesn't love basketball. All the talent in the world but he lacks the passion.

@@Trevor_Schindler Maybe. If he gets past his off court issues, he might/should improve his on court play.

@@Trevor_Schindler I doubt that's it, he was playing well after getting the bag but before he took time off for personal issues. Since then he's a shell of himself, playing with no rhythm, can barely muster basic skills. You can even see him in some games he'll be vacant and a step behind the play, then seems to muster up the will power to put in and you see flashes of what he was before he loses the spark again. His mind just can't stay focused. If he can deal with whatever off court thing is dogging him I'm sure he can come back, but until then he's borderline unplayable

he won't --- Grandma's Wiggs has always been like this

His dad died allegedly.

Given thay Aaron Gordon is paid 21,3m, it doesn't look they expected him to become new Aaron Gordon, but like 1/3rd of him.

I agree i don't know what the Nuggets where thinking his obviously not worth that he is a G league player.

He's apparently been killing it with his recent contributions. Good stuff.

Shooting 38,5% from 3 this season so far, a bit better than that during the last stretch.

I’ve heard about that

U don’t know him lil bro

@@successfulmen2414 he is very well known in Ontario so stfu I’m sure he does. I worked with a few people who went to his high school lil bro

@@seanjjpaul why are lying on the internet bro

@@successfulmen2414 why are you a loser?

Yess...... listen, you are 7ft, you are young and athletic and number one pick, you need to be aggressive dude

Yeah, no. Victor's wanted to be a Spur since he was a kid and is talking about how he wants Pop to hold him accountable and send him to the G-League if he ever plays bad enough. He's very clearly in it for the long haul - the bad AND the good.

Ben Simmons is actually nice on 2K lol.

Nahh..... if you can walk you can play. I saw Kobe a couple of times 25 points with that finger. Just bandage it and we are good to go. If it was some if his toes and he can't even run because of that, that's another thing

Nah the Average person has WAY more pressure. Yeah getting yelled at by huge crowds and having people shit on you on live television isn't great. But the Millions and the guaranteed contracts more than make up for it. They don't have to deal with the Financial stress of worrying about not having to pay Bills/rent/food or getting fired constantly. Any normal person would love to have a guaranteed contract that makes them impossible to fire for years at a time

Wiggins showed up in the playoffs and won a title. Embiid... not so much.
