Who gets posterized more this year, Wemby or Chet? John Wick-like bounties on both their heads.

this post wont get upvotes cuz marvin bagley but great dunk on an already legit defender. love to highlights from anyone, as long as the highlights are good.

The dunk wasn't that impressive. It's a nice dunk but what is impressive is the mobility and fluidity with the ball in his hands from Bagley. That's what he's capable of, being a mismatch guy who can beat most bigs off the bounce with his quickness. There's still promise in him. Never know whether this may be the year he realizes it.

Honestly, I felt the opposite. For a guy whose only real strengths are explosiveness and going left, that was shockingly slow and clunky.

I don't think he's ever been tremendously bursty. He's more fluid and mobile than bursty.

Chet will be good, but he’s going to be manhandled on defense a lot by anyone with real size.

[–] Friendly-Thought-973@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

He literally clamped Duren most of the game lol

[–] The_Sign_of_Zeta@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And he’s going to be able to be manhandled at times by experienced players, at least for now. That’s not uncommon for a rookie. It’s not uncommon.

[–] Friendly-Thought-973@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Oh yeah probably I agree.

Was just confused why this was pointed since all Bagley did in this clip was get the step on him

[–] New_Essay_4869@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I still believe Bagley can be a solid NBA player

Never not going left lol

three highlights on the hot page relating to chet either getting a block or getting dunked on. love to see that he's gonna be a jarrett allen / giannis type player who's not afraid to get posterized and tries to contest as many dunks as he possibly can
