Preface:
If it backfires, it is believed that Heaven must have arranged something else; all that is lost will return in another way. In the eighth year of the league's roundabouts, Wiggins finally found his own sense of belonging in the Warriors, and also found his own position from the lost, and now his goal is: through his own efforts, he hopes to leave a trace of the championship on the top basketball stage of the NBA!
With the Western Conference Finals about to begin and the West Finals with the Lone Rangers about to begin, Andrew Wiggins has become a crucial role on the defensive end, he will take on the warriors' responsibility of defending Doncic, and the start of this showdown also marks The first time Wiggins has reached the division finals, upgrading his career to a new height.
Wiggins also said he cherished the opportunity, saying: "I've never played this step before, so it's a very special opportunity, and as the game progresses, you'll see me smile more. Wiggins' achievements in the Warriors today are like Vincent Peele's saying: "Change your mind, you change your world." ”
The Warriors have the hope of winning the championship if they have Wiggins
The Warriors are back in the Western Conference Finals after 3 years, and winning the championship is not out of reach for them. It is worth mentioning that Wiggins, who came to the Warriors' third season, directly created a career record this time, which is the change of Wiggins. The Warriors' 4-2 elimination of the Grizzlies, his performance is also the key to the Warriors to win the game, this person is Wiggins, he is indispensable. Thompson put it bluntly that the Warriors wouldn't be in this position without Wiggins.
Curry, on the other hand, expressed his appreciation for Wiggins: "We know very well what he [Wiggins] is capable of, we know what he's been through, the former champion, he's played some nice stats in Minnesota, and there's not much chance to show off here, but we understand he can influence the win." We all appreciate him and we know it makes us better. "Sometimes it's only a moment that determines a person's life, and the whole destiny. All the luck that seems to come from perseverance.
There is a daigo-inspiring quote in Teacher Luo Xiang's golden quotations, saying: "Be cautious about what can be controlled, and be optimistic about what is uncontrollable." Looking back at Wiggins' NBA career, this proud man was very sad at the beginning of his NBA career. Wiggins was picked by the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2014 as a first-hand pick, and on the first day after being selected, Wiggins was sent to the Timberwolves as a bargaining chip for Lefort.
Later, during the Timberwolves' performance, in addition to a warm and innocent smile, Wiggins failed to meet the expectations of fans. Since 18 years, Wiggins has been jokingly called "Goji Spokesperson" by fans, a soul-level fishing leader. At this point, the one who was complained that after playing a game, he did not necessarily sweat, put down the thermos cup to play the star performance, and was considered by the media from all walks of life to be a Wiggins who could not grow into a good star, but he held the title of the champion, took the top salary contract, and finally achieved almost nothing in the Timberwolves. Fans agreed that the once Wiggins was increasingly mediocre, willing to be mediocre, and would continue to be mediocre.
When you are at a low point, it is often the beginning of getting better, as long as you are willing to go forward, how to go is to go up. Time can pass are all people who are willing to cross themselves, no one's life is smooth, and the suffering of the trough is to accumulate strength. Before the 2020 All-Star Game, the Timberwolves made a deal with the Warriors, and Wiggins replaced Russell. After Splash was sidelined due to injury and Durant left Brooklyn, Wiggins came to the post-dynasty Warriors, and all this naturally became the beginning of his change.
Until this season, the Warriors were fully restored and the lineup was neat. Not only did Curry continue to maintain his peak form, other players gradually played, Kerr's passing tactics shone again, and the Warriors' system was just right for Wiggins, after Curry and Poole attracted most of the firepower, Wiggins easily got the opportunity to cut, so he gave fans the perfect performance of his easy to soar. Fight a protracted battle in your favorite field, because you have a dream, so you fight for yourself. I think that's the most apt idea for Wiggins at this stage.
Talent also requires hard work
A person's success is not only based on talent, and the efforts of the day after tomorrow are also quite important. As Mendeleev said, "Without doubling down on diligence, there is neither talent nor genius." "The boy does not show his ambition, and he is born with an eight-foot body. This sentence is the best interpretation of Wiggins after his debut. Wiggins entered the league as a draft pick and won best rookie in his first year. It can be seen how high Wiggins's starting point is, which is enough to prove that he is talented. While 6 feet 8 tall, 7 feet of arm span, 2.72 meters of standing touch height. Andrew Wiggins not only has a perfect three-position body, but also claims to be the most physically perfect forward player after James. And his legendary 45-inch fantasy bounce puts him on par with many NBA superstars.
A good family background gives Wiggins plenty of room and opportunity for trial and error. Wiggins comes from a sports family, the father of a former NBA elite starting quarterback, who averaged 15+4+1 per game in the peak season, and his mother is the Canadian women's 400m national record holder and holds two Olympic silver medals. Thanks to his parents, he has a sports talent that is envied by the world.
In 2013, Wiggins was hailed as the strongest high school player since James, and he reached number one in all the high school rankings, sweeping all major awards. Elected Mr. Basketball player of the Year in high school, he is already a super genius among players of his age, and he is well deserved to be hailed as the rising star of the NBA. Wiggins has a unique small forward figure, good bounce, agility, physical fitness, top athleticism, all conditions are perfect, full of potential to become a superstar. From the beginning of entering the league, Wiggins maintained an indisputable mentality. Just when everyone was expecting him to cash in on his talent, he found another way for himself with Buddhist play. But if you want to get the best thing in the world, you must first let the world see the best of you.
Now Wiggins has been perfectly integrated into the Warriors team, successfully transforming from an outside scoring core to a senior wing blue collar. However, he is also very satisfied with his current situation. Wiggins' low profile, easy-going, and willingness to accept any role Cole arranges eventually made him a reliable helper for Curry. Wiggins, who is now talented, is willing to work hard to win, focus on defending, and show his efficiency on the offensive end. Wiggins, who became serious, was praised by Curry, Tang Shen and other warriors. In fact, there is no need for chicken soup to work hard, after all, it is yourself who benefits, it is you who become stronger, and it is yourself who becomes better.
Join the Warriors Mouth Brother Metamorphosis
Salinger once said in The Catcher of the Rye: "Remember what you should remember, forget what you should forget." What can be changed can be changed, what is acceptable cannot be changed. "I think that's the best way to live in the moment. As we all know, from the layout of this year's Warriors, Thompson is no longer the defensive arrow in the team, and Wiggins takes on this role. As a result, Wiggins became the most aggressive player to defend each other in every game. Without Wiggins' contributions on the defensive end, the Warriors would have struggled to get to where they are today. In addition, Wiggins created too many second-run offensive opportunities for the Warriors in the rebounding battle in every game. It all shows that Wiggins is starting to get serious and work hard in the playoffs. Expect Wiggins to continue to move forward, swing the boat of life, do not have to cling to and anchor, the boat that breaks the waves will open all the way to the new flowers.
The point of effort is that when good luck comes, you feel worthy. After coming to the Warriors, Wiggins changed the way he played for the Timberwolves as the team's No. 2-3 scorer in order to adapt to the Warriors' system. Commenting on Wiggins' defensive prowess, Kerr said: "He's done a great job defending players in the same position. He's good at using his height and arm span, and Wiggins can defend any of the outside players when we perform a change tactic. Such a player means a lot to us, we already have Clay, Wiggins has the same function. ”
Commenting on Wiggins' performance with the Warriors, Kerr said: "It's clear that he [Wiggins] learns things very quickly. He had no problem remembering and discerning our tactics. Whenever we schedule tactics on timeout, he is always in the right position and understands the tactics being performed and what should be done on the pitch. ”
Epilogue:
Today, Wiggins is named an All-Star for the first time in his career and is a starting forward in the West. Defensive efficiency league first, three-point shooting rate, steals, true shooting rate are all career highs, entering the league for the first time to be selected as an All-Star starter, the team record ranked second in the West. This also proves that no one's success will be smooth, but no matter what dilemma they are in, they must be as stable as Mount Tai, as solid as a rock, and must always be consistent.
After the team reached the Western Conference Finals, Wiggins recreated the long-lost "New Year's mouth". Because of the Warriors, he regained his passion and fun with basketball, his smile re-bloomed with the warmth and innocence of his original, and he proved that he wanted to win too! Therefore, the withering and desolation of a flower cannot be the whole spring, and a setback cannot waste the whole life, in fact, we are like the trajectory of Wiggins, not bad at all, as long as you want to start, you can start at any time.
