I was just watching some highlights and I was thinking wow he’s like a super Saiayn version of Tim Duncan. Fitting for the spurs.

God these nickname posts are so fucking corny

[–] whammykerfuffle@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

How about Tall Millsap? That rhymes with someone he plays nothing like too

[–] dkdoki@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Cool nickname except for the fact wemby does not play like duncan. At all.

[–] Dramatic_Green7163@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

More like Slim Tebow same hype as Tebow

[–] DrixxYBoat@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Having another players name in your nickname prolly isn't a good idea.

Kobe was Jordan 2.0, but we don't call him Jordan Killer

That's already Evan Mobley's nickname. Along with Darius Garland being 'Sleeve Nash'.

[–] koenigsaurus@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have never heard a single person call either of those guys either of those names.

Check the Cavs' subreddit.

[–] JKaro@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Eating disorders are no laughing matter.

bulimic brigadier general

[–] Fat-Villante@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

At least this one is kinda funny

[–] arcelios@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Are you dense?? Wemby is literally the complete opposite of Duncan. Duncan was the most old-school type player. Fundamentals. He was just elite at what he did.

Wemby is the new generation. Seems like he's the REAL "heir" to LeBron's throne. Mans a 7'5 guard with elite shot blocking ability because he has a 8 foot wingspan and high BBIQ. But his mental game and maturity reminds me of 18 y/o Bron. That's super rare, especially at that age. Most impressive

It's already established that he will be known as the French Tickler.

Victor the Inflictor.

Le grande churros

Have you no shame

[–] LordHussyPants@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

terrible because it assumes he's a version of someone rather than his own man

[–] frostfeint3@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Only similarity with Duncan and Wemby is that they play for the same franchise.

[–] igby1@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Funny how often people call him “Wemby” in a post about what his nickname should be.

It’s right there in front of us. The people have spoken.

Wemby’s nickname is Wemby.

[–] eeveeritt15@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

but when oscar wembanyama makes it to the league in like 4 years, we're gonna have to update the nickname

[–] igby1@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Don’t borrow trouble! We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.

Who the fuck let bro cook

[–] natural_lawg@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The letter V or the French freak.

[–] natural_lawg@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Like V for vendetta.

[–] DigOlBick99@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Since their games and demeanor are almost identical—quite terrible, actually

[–] Fat-Villante@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago
[–] jumboponcho@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Wemby is fine

[–] LogicisGone@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Sure and let's nickname Luka "Big Bird" because he's thiccer, white and plays nothing like Larry Bird.
