Terrible choke from the spurs tonight, wemby didn't have the best offensive game but had a monstrous 8 blocks, setting a new career high and tying the league high this season

Being 7’4 consistently putting up those shooting splits is crazy.

I told y’all he would get more than Chet in blocks. Not hating on Chet dudes a beast right now.

He's going to be a multiple time DPOY

[–] Camctrail@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

They really need to run plays for him. He's calling for the ball all. the. time. and yet, nothing. They can just throw it in the air and let him Randy Moss his matchup every time and 80% of the time it'll get them a bucket

His low shooting percentage is attributed to his poor shot selection. That issue can easily get fixed.

Why does he want to be KD instead of Kareem? It would be easier to be Kareem and Kareem is a far better player?

This guy is going to break 2k in ways no other player has.. fuck

It’s funny how in my head I still see this as a bad game for him despite 8 blocks as a rookie and 13 rebounds, shows just how talented he truly is.

Holmgren lite

Hassan Whiteside-esque

Once he gets strong enough to ride contact better his scoring will explode and he will draw so many more fouls

I hope one day nba public comes in terms with the fact that blocks, unless it leads to possesion for you team, is kinda meh impact wise. Good to look at though.

Wemby gonna be the first to get a quad double since akeem.

[–] Not_A_Bot_Am_Human@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

For anyone who didn’t watch the game, he played a lot more at the 5 tonight which led to a shit load of blocks. Interested to see if we’ll be getting more Wemby at the 5 mins going forward.

[–] Sternjunk@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Wemby need to stand by the restricted zone and just dunk the ball from there. He tryna play like KD when he doesn’t have to

Got to one of the 5 Chet threads ya goon

[–] KaptainZulu@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I guess he didnt like the 0 block in the last game

[–] deneuvig@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

First game people really went at him at the rim, 8 blocks. Only reason he doesn't average 4 bpg is that many teams avoid him all night long

[–] Undecided-@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

crazy how even if he's not as polished offensively, his floor as a defensive player is already all-nba. Insane
