Andrew Wiggins is not a bad basketball player. Andrew Wiggins may have fell short thus far of #1 pick expectations, but saying he is “bad” must come from the mouth of a helpless prisoner of the moment or someone who is rewarded for poking the hornets nest at the expense of another man’s livelihood.

Nick Wright is both of those, and Matt Barnes is the Queen Bee.

After the Golden State Warriors traded Bad Fit And Reformed Snitch D’Angelo Russell to the Timberwolves in exchange for Andrew Wiggins, a protected 2021 first-round pick and a 2021 second-round pick, Nick Wright shoveled dirt on Steph Curry’s career by confusing Andrew Wiggins with Javaris Crittenton.

Will anyone with a blue check mark take the bait? Of course they will. This is the internet.

The fact that Nick Wright thinks NBA players are just 100x better at basketball than him tells you everything you need to know about the dude.

Matt Barnes is just getting started. In a couple tweets, he’s going to threaten Nick’s life. Stay tuned.

How do you know where he lives, Matt? Was your ex-wife banging him?

Ok, that was mean. I take that back.

Uh oh. Nick Wright has made another enemy in Kendrick Perkins.

You gotta death wish, Bobby?

Matt’s love of writing was born during a sixth grade assembly when it was announced that his essay titled “Why Drugs Are Bad” had taken first prize in D.A.R.E.’s grade-wide contest. The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
