Wtf is wrong with everyone on this “employee getting fired” nonsense? We all know that isn’t what he said, why are you trolling so hard?

I’m aware, I too can read his stat line. Are you following the point of this whole thought exercise? If he changed teams to the Spurs, he wouldn’t shoot as well…that’s the whole point here….
Wrong on all accounts, Wemby’s verticality is inhuman, the plays he makes around the rim when guys just throw it up there are insane. And his hands are so big he can just catch the ball with one have like it’s a softball almost.
He takes so many moving, step in 3’s, out of rhythm 3’s…he has the shooting mechanics, he would be a league average shooter at least if he was in a lower volume role getting all his 3’s off the catch. He also obviously wouldn’t be playing the same style or role on the Thunder, so he wouldn’t be iso’ing…that’s the whole point of this post.
The gap wouldn’t be nearly as drastic, he might be a few percent points better if they swapped teams. Wemby probably being a league average mid 30’s guy and Chet dropping slightly below 40%
Better, you lose some shooting efficiency but you gain a better vertical threat, all the crazy disruption he causes on defense and you allow him to play in a much more simplified way which cuts out so much of the awkwardness we see with him on the Spurs.
Unless the Thunder are that dependent on having their 5 be a plus shooter that it would outweigh all the crazy benefits that Wemby brings, then it should be Wemby. I think Wemby is a mid 30’s 3 point shooter in a similar role fyi, not elite like Chet has been but certainly a lot better than his percentages on the Spurs would suggest.
I think it’s close though, even with my argument the Thunder would be better, it would be marginal…whereas the Spurs would be a lot worse with Chet instead of Wemby. Chet would be asked to do a lot more and wouldn’t have everything served up to him by great guards and facilitators anymore.
With Ivey starting and Duran back, the Pistons resemble a more competent team…so I’d lean them.
I’m not sure why anyone should value you’re casual ass opinion. Blame yourself if you had unrealistic expectations, it’s pretty easy to watch the team play, watch how many difficult situations they are immediately putting him in and see how good he already is doing.
So many lazy, ignorant takes when it comes to Wemby.
Scoot is really bad so far, not an NBA level point guard yet…only reason he is getting minutes is due to the investment.
Skylar Mays is 10x the point guard Scoot is.
Lol you are such a hater in all these rookie posts
Guys Sengun is not actually Jokic’s offspring…thanks for clarifying!
