Nate on Yao vibes

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

Glad I didn’t have to scroll down too far for this comment.

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

This is like Nate Robinson blocking Yao Ming

[–] MinutesTaker@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (4 children)

The tallest 6’2” center in the league

[–] rfguevar@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (3 children)

Relax don’t give Kerr any ideas

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

Clearly you haven't been watching them play him at Center the last few years, including during their '22 finals run...

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

He’s unironically played at the 5 many times during his stints with the warriors

6’2 C vs a 7’4 G, modern nba in a nutshell

[–] BreadRponsible6595@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I'm bad at science.

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

Nice blocking

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

Smallest big man in the league (GPII, that is)

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

I swear he has springs in his legs.

I know we rarely get them, but GP2 highlights are some of my favorite. He's so fun to watch and such a good defender

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

Wemby has no hops. He starts at 7’4” and jumps to like 7’8”. Plenty of smaller nba player can jump that high, it just takes a millisecond longer to get there bc they have to fly.but if they time it right…

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

I mean on this specific kind of shot, at a certain point he’d just be moving the ball further and further away from the hoop and making it a more difficult and awkward shot the higher he goes.

If he jumped as high as he could and fully extended his arms, the ball would be like 12+ feet off the ground and he’d just have to awkwardly try to shoot the the ball downwards into the rim as opposed to using his normal/traditional shot mechanics.

[–] 415Legend@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Young Glove said get that out of here

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

James Wisemans career died for this

Absolutely disgusting block.

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

This is just another day for us Warrior fans, GP2 does this constantly

That's a bad man

[–] Losalou52@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Go Beavs

[–] Freemaxb1233@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Getting your shot blocked at that height is disgraceful

[–] Altruistic-Drawing25@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

GP2 has been jumping like this all season. Frequent flyer.

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

I was absolutely certain Wemby was going to pull some magic there, but great players make great plays.

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

Jesus christ he had like 15% momentum and he got UP

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

Is he looking for a foul? Lmao.

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

GET THE SUPERSONICS BACK IN SEATTLE AND MAKE GP2 THE FRANCHISE FACE

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

Nothing amazing about this plays, Centers block PF all the time.

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

Lmao at that fan's super serious face mutombo finger wag

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

Meanwhile, the confused little kid doing the "on his head" celebration almost ruined it for me

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

Can someone kindly calculate how high gp2's hand was at the apex? I'm bad at science.

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

Toradol gives you wings!!

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

Still amazing fluidity and coordination for Wemby

[–] Jimm120@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

nate robinson on Yao type moment. Nate's was bigger, but this is also a good underdog one

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

I hope GP2 wins some defensive awards in the nba. He definitely deserves it

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

Oof

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

Holy shit

Block of the year so far
