The hype for Wemby was ROY, All-Star and playoffs. He’s been fine, but def not living up to the hype. Especially WOJ telling us he’s the best prospect since Lebron every time he was on the TV.

Almost every piece of NBA content I listened to in the preseason had the Spurs as a bottom 3 team in the west.

If Wemby is just “fine” than 99.9% of rookies are terrible.

99.9% of rookies ARE terrible

Yes, but not terrible rookies. Wemby is an excellent rookie, especially for his age.

99.9% of rookies weren't billed as the best prospect since LeBron.

And this is why Wemby needs to play like an All-Star on Day One? Because the media said so?
