This game would be a good answer for his 'Welcome to the NBA moment'

Pop made a deal with the devil decades ago by suffering from eternal grumpiness but he will always get a generational player.

If this kid stays healthy he's going to be absolutely incredible.

Wemby is the man. So excited for him and Chet. I wish my Raptors would embrace a true rebuild because our play style is dog poo.

It’s true though. KD is so polished and refined. That one highlight of KD going at Wemby, then jabbing at the block and then pulling out a fade away jumper… it was not just a pretty shot. It was a move KD has refined where he can manipulate the timing and tempo of those movements to throw off his defenders. It felt like Wemby never stood a chance on that iso.

This is an underrated part of what made him such a compelling prospect. He genuinely loves the game and learns from every single game. Along with being a freak of nature if he can learn and improve with the mindset he puts forward in interviews he’ll be a star.

The league is so fucked in 2-3 years. Like he's already the real deal, but if he doesn't get injured, with his talent, mentality, and Spurs knack for development he's going to be a superstar sooner rather than later.
