The Warriors did play a role in activating Wiggins, but Wiggins' abilities were fundamental. Some people say that Wiggins' level simply can't get into the All-Star starter. If it's just one season and averages just 18 points per game, then such a player certainly doesn't deserve an All-Star spot. But Wiggins has maintained it for many seasons, and this ability to continue may be what the league wants to see. And this stable and lasting ability is not honed in the Warriors.
Before that, we used a profession to describe Wiggins, which was civil servant. Wiggins does have a civil servant mentality, and he rarely takes the initiative to choose overtime. As long as your performance is not lost, that is enough. So since he got the big contract, Wiggins has maintained this performance. You say he can't score points, right? Occasional outbreaks can also occur. You say he scores a lot, right? He stopped playing once or twice. This is the most confusing place.
What was Wiggins' talent? Some say it's the body! That's for sure. Wiggins has the best physical talent in league history, at least in the first gear. With a vertical bounce height of more than a meter, Wiggins' flexibility, resistance ability, are top notch. So in the early days of entering the league, Wiggins can still stage a ferocious dunk from time to time. If he encounters an old owner, Wiggins can even break the thermos directly. This athletic ability ensures that Wiggins will always have good basic data as long as he is not injured. It is precisely because of this factor that Wiggins can successfully get a big contract.
Before entering the league, Wiggins' scouting report was actually full of all the values. His athleticism and potential are all perfect, and his size and speed are close to full marks. The only thing that is slightly deficient in this report is Wiggins' mentality. Scouts who have tracked Wiggins all have a common discovery that Wiggins never shows a strong desire to fight. Even if the team has been provoked by the opponent before the start of the game, Wiggins can still do it without panic!
This trait has a similar object in the history of the League: the Stone Buddha Duncan from the Holy City. At that time, Duncan could also do not panic, and Duncan's report was almost full of points. So why didn't Wiggins show a tendency to move closer to the Duncan level? Because Duncan still has fighting spirit, and Wiggins is still in a mess. One is to understand the provocation of the opponent and not to be moved, and the other is to hang high without caring about oneself, and the two are still very different.
And this ability, which was not cultivated by the Warriors, has already appeared in previous seasons. Therefore, this ability to maintain health is not a disaster caused by warriors. So see here everyone should understand that the Warriors for Wiggins, the opportunity is not big. No matter which team Wiggins went to, the treatment was similar and the performance was not bad. That's what Wiggins really did.
Did the Warriors increase their grip on Wiggins? Yes! The Warriors taught Wiggins, to some extent, how to make better use of his strengths. So you can clearly feel that Wiggins is more at ease in the Warriors' game. Of course, this is definitely because of the help of all-star teammates, but it is more of a positive help that this atmosphere has produced for Wiggins.
Coming to the Warriors, what abilities did Wiggins evolve? First, defensive efficiency. Wiggins' defensive advantage has not been well played, although the Timberwolves can also have a good defensive position, but at that stage, Wiggins needs to do more to assist in defense than to defend alone. The data does not show too obvious a role, although the actual performance is good, but the perception of the fans is a bit unremarkable. After coming to the Warriors, Wiggins needed to take charge of the defense of the outside. Many times Wiggins is a defensive opponent's offensive arrow, so since entering the Warriors, Wiggins has continued to contribute very unexpected defensive performances. Facing an interior player who is bigger than himself, Wiggins can also be fierce.
Now Wiggins has a little bit of Green's shadow on him, before it was the use of talent, now it is skill + talent. This is a rare point, and it is difficult for talent monsters to improve their skills by the tempering of the day after tomorrow, because their talents can bring them great help in the early stages. For example, Wei Shao, before playing games, was a body stream. Now the body is not good, the technology is not good, and the status has come down at once. Wiggins was different, and under Green's guidance, the defense improved a lot. His timing predictions are more precise, and statistics show that with Wiggins participating in the defensive round, the Warriors' defensive efficiency can be improved by 3-5 points. In the purely perimeter field, with Wiggins playing time, his defensive efficiency is the highest. These are the changes that the Warriors have brought to Wiggins!
So wiggins' offense, is it also brought up by the Warriors? Not all! The Warriors at most give Wiggins better offensive space, after all, with Curry around, Wiggins can have the biggest shot. Opponents have gone to defend Curry, and Wiggins is still not a problem as long as he is in normal condition. So the Warriors brought Wiggins an upper limit, not a simple lower bound problem.
Wiggins' own lower limit is actually not low, his shot type is still relatively normal, although the shooting rate is not up to the level of super shooters, but it is also above the average. Wiggins actually has a problem, his dribbling level is relatively average, which limits his ability to hold the ball. This is also a problem that has been criticized in the early days of the Warriors, the Warriors need to have enough ball points, after all, the Warriors' strongest no-ball tactics, the ultimate direction is Curry and Thompson. If Wiggins can have good ball-handling skills, then the Warriors' tactical system becomes very rich.
Wiggins' specific performance is that his left side offensive ability is very poor. As a wing player, These performances by Wiggins limited his offensive diversity. The opponent blocked the offensive area on the right side in advance, and Wiggins became very uncomfortable. In the past, Wiggins broke the game more simply, using an acceleration, even if the opponent blocked, it could open up the space. But with the escalation of the assisted defense tactics, Wiggins' strategies are useless and naturally easy to target.
Overall, Wiggins is a good jigsaw puzzle player. For the Warriors, to be able to raise Wiggins to the All-Star level, it is naturally a big profit. It's just that in this, Wiggins's basic talent accounts for most of it, and what the Warriors do is the so-called icing on the cake.
