If you're not going anywhere any way and you know the poorer you play the better it helps your odds for next years draft... Why not?
Embiid and Noel sounds like the Baby Bulls Eddy Curry and Tyson Chandler. They didn't do anything til they left the Bulls.
Dude, I'm not saying it makes sense, and it's not the way I would do things, but it's not like Wiggins went 11-26 or something. He got 5 shots and scored 8 points.
noel is not from this draft class, but yeah 14/10/2 with 3 blocks and a steal its gonna be hard to get a feel how noel is playing from box scores though, philly is so bad that he is going to get numbers regardless. i mean tony wroten can look like an mvp with some of his lines, but he is garbage
Wolves lead Bulls by 1 and Wiggins fouls Butler with 0.2 left. I've never seen a more stupid play. What a bust.
Do you not remember Roy fouling Yao on a turnaround baseline 20'-footer, up one, with .7 seconds left?

If Wiggins doesn't foul, Butler doesn't get the shot off in time. There was only 0.2 left and the ball was still in his hands.
making a game-winner or not, it was an incredibly stupid play. One you can understand from a rookie in his 3rd game after 1 year in college. Not so much in an All-Star with 4 years at UW.
Looked at it again. Butler had just fallen over. Wiggins was standing right there. There is no way Butler will make a shot there if Wiggins doesn't buy the fake.
