WHO CAN CHANGE THE LANDSCAPE OF THE LEAGUE. AND VICTOR WEMBANYAMA WHAT WAS YOUR BIGGEST TAKEAWAY FROM WATCHING WHAT THEY WERE BOTH ABLE TO DO TONIGHT? >> WELL, WUN BE TO ME. I’VE ONLY SEEN HIM PLAY 3 OR 4 TIMES, BUT TONIGHT WAS REALLY IMPRESSIVE BECAUSE HE WAS TRYING TO COMPETE WITH
GIANNIS AND YOU CAN SEE GIANNIS IS LIKE NO NO NO NO NOT YET YOUNG FELLA. SO THAT’S WHAT WAS REALLY IMPRESSIVE. AND WHAT WAS REALLY GOOD ABOUT IT ERNIE. THEY PLAYED AGAINST EACH OTHER A LOT. YOU KNOW ME AND KENNY WERE IN THE BACK LIKE OH MAN I WANT TO GUARD HIM
AND I WANT TO GUARD HIM. BUT FOR ME, THIS WAS WEMBLEY’S BEST GAME FROM A COMPETITOR STANDPOINT BECAUSE HE WAS REALLY COMPETING AGAINST GIANNIS AND I LOVE THAT ASPECT OF IT. BUT MAN, I TELL YOU WHAT THOUGH. OH LOOK AT THAT. THAT’S IMPRESSIVE. BUT I WILL TELL YOU MAN THE MILWAUKEE BUCKS
THEY GOT TO ADDRESS THEIR DEFENSIVE WOES BECAUSE EVERYBODY WAS SCORING AT WILL. AND YOU CAN ONLY EXPECT GIANNIS AND DAME. YOU ONLY CAN SPEAK SO MUCH OUT OF THOSE GUYS BECAUSE YOU’RE TRYING TO COMPETE. YOU’RE COMPETING. YOU’RE COMPETING TO WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP. AND IF YOU DON’T GET BETTER DEFENSIVELY YOU’RE NOT GOING
TO BEAT THE ELITE TEAMS. WELL QUIMBY JUST HAS TO CONTINUE TO GET BETTER. >> HIS ROOKIE SEASON. YOU KNOW WE KNOW YOU WERE THE NUMBER ONE PICK. WE KNOW YOU’RE GOING TO BE A PRETTY GOOD PLAYER. BUT YOU JUST HAVE TO CONTINUE. KEEP CONTINUING GETTING BETTER. AND THEN SOON YOU’RE GOING
TO TAKE THE CROWN FROM YONDER. SOON LEBRON AND BELIEVING IN THE LEAGUE TO BE YOURS. BUT YOU HAVE TO GET BETTER, GET BETTER, GET BETTER, STAY INJURY FREE AND JUST KEEP CONTINUING TO GET BETTER. AND I AGREE WITH, UH, COACH GRIFFIN, HE IS THE FUTURE OF THE LEAGUE. IF HE
CONTINUES TO GET BETTER AND YOU HEARD POP AND HIS IN-GAME INTERVIEW WITH THE JARED GREENBERG WHEN HE ASKED HIM IF HE EVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT IN THE THIRD QUARTER, WHAT HE WAS ABLE TO SEE FROM FROM WEMBY, AND HE JUST SAID NO. >> AND SO HE’S DOING A LOT
OF THINGS THAT YOU DO NOT SEE ON A, ON A DAY IN DAY OUT BASIS. >> YEAH. AND YOU KNOW, POP IS LEARNING WHAT HE’S ALREADY GREAT AT. LIKE THERE ARE CERTAIN THINGS WHEN YOU COME INTO THE LEAGUE YOU SAY, WELL, I’M GREAT AT THIS. I THINK POP IS STILL
LEARNING WHAT HE’S GREAT AT BECAUSE HE’S SO VERSATILE. SOMETIMES YOU KIND OF YOU PUTTING HIM IN TOO MANY PLACES INSTEAD OF THE PLACE HE NEEDS TO BE AT THIS EARLY STAGE. SECONDLY, THE SPURS EVENTUALLY ARE GOING TO NEED A PLAYMAKER IF YOU WATCH THE GAME, EVERYTHING IS ONE ON
ONE. HIS ABILITY TO GET IT, HE NEEDS SOMEONE TO GET HIM AN EASY BASKET THERE. YOU KNOW GIANNIS GETS EASY BASKETS PLAYING WITH DAME LILLARD. AND WHEN HE WAS WITH JRUE HOLIDAY PRIOR TO THIS HE GOT HE GOT EASY BASKETS LEBRON JAMES PLAYS WITH ANTHONY DAVIS. HE CAN GET EASY BASKETS BY CUTTING
TO THE RIM AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE. THE SHAQ PLAYED WITH KOBE. YOU PLAYED WITH KEVIN JOHNSON LIKE THERE’S NO EASY BASKET ON A NIGHTLY BASIS FOR WEMBY. THERE ARE OCCASIONALLY THREE BUT NOT ON NOT A STEADY DIET. I PLAYED WITH TWO GREAT POINT GUARDS, KEVIN JOHNSON AND ONE OUR MAURICE CHEEKS. THEY
ALWAYS GOT ME 6 TO 8 TO TEN, 12 POINTS A GAME. EASY BECAUSE NOBODY CAN LIVE ON CONTESTED. WHAT IF WEMBY PLAYED WITH A JASON KIDD? OH MY GOD, IT WOULDN’T BE FAIR, YOU KNOW. YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE JASON KIDD. IF HE PLAYED WITH A JASON KIDD OR
EVEN A MAURICE CHEEKS OR SOMEBODY LIKE A JOHN STOCKTON. YEAH. OH MY GOD, IT WOULDN’T EVEN BE FAIR. I MEAN, BUT BUT THE SPURS, LIKE, I SAY, POPOVICH COACH POPOVICH IS THE RIGHT COACH FOR THAT SITUATION BECAUSE YOU KNOW, WE LIVE IN IN THIS SOCIETY WHERE EVERYBODY WANTS EVERYTHING REALLY,
REALLY QUICK. THE SPURS ARE THEY’RE REBUILDING. THEY ARE THEY’RE LOOKING AT THE NEXT TEN YEARS NOT THE NEXT TWO YEARS. AND MAN IN THIS LEAGUE I WOULD SAY YOU HAVE TO BE IMPRESSED WITH WITH ME TONIGHT BECAUSE HE REALLY COMPETED AGAINST IN 26 MINUTES. IN 26 MINUTES. >> YEAH. 125 121 YOUR FINAL
SCORE. UM, MILWAUKEE NOW SEVEN AND TWO IN GAMES DECIDED BY FOUR POINTS OR LESS. MEANTIME TIME. THE SPURS HAVE LOST 13 IN A ROW IN SINGLE DIGIT GAMES OF. I’M A HITS. >> I’M GONNA HIT HIM WITH THAT STICK. >> WE’LL TAKE A LITTLE BREAK HERE ON INSIDE COMING BACK
WITH MORE SO TAKE YOUR GLASSES OFF. >> I DON’T WANT TO HIT A MAN WEAR

The fact that the Spurs were in this game……😂😂
That block on Giannis was just great. What a rookie class. Wemby and Chet are generational talents, and behind them there are many extremely good guys like Jaquez Jr., Lively, Podz, the Thompsons, Miller, Scoot (he's getting better!)… Great class.
Gilbert Arenas said it best, nobody’s scared of the Bucks
Spurs are 5 – 29. I think coach pop is starting to get tired of being out thwre by now 😅. After losing a loved one and failing record every year now i think its time for him to slowly fade into retirement. I remember at one point in time the spirs were a 50 plus win team for what 19 years of tim duncan career. People talking about a rebuild. Yes, but they are trash now. That reign is over with now.
I LIKE THAT GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO#34(BEST PLAYER IN THE LEAGUE) .. AND VICTOR WEMBANYAMA#1(HIS HEIR APPARENT) .. WEREN'T BUDDY BUDDY AFTER THE GAME .. SHOULD BE A GREAT MATCHUP FOR YEARS TO COME ..
Unbelievable first matchup . And it's always going to live up to the hype every time they battle because they're in different conferences
Shaq definitely got mad😂😂😂
Not sure why Greg poppovich gets a pass for his bs 💩
This game watching live just felt like history. Wemby block at the end was everything to see from him, in two years he will have adjusted with the game and have enough to take that shot even tho the pass was the play to make. Catch it high n keep it high he will be scary. Them two will always be a battle from for the league mane
3:48 i love that u can see Giannis smiling after Wemby blocked him….. prob a unnatural feeling for Giannis 🤣
When he gets to play full minutes he going to be killing teams all night, hope he stays healthy!
Man I miss Chris Webber
The block Wemby had was incredible
I, like Charles, did not have volume control while watching this game.
D*mn Kenny the guy is 7"6. I would say majority of his baskets are easy.
Wemby WILL get the triple dub with blocks
Spurs fan here but I love Giannis and that Bucks team. I'm rooting for them or Jokic to win another championship this year.
Pop 🤣
Always great to see that Webber dunk on Shaq, one of my all time favourites
That block is better than any dunk of the night!
Pop lol
When is someone just gonna say it… Pops is and always has been an a$$hole.
The look on Giannis' face when Wemby blocked his shot is everything I love about Basketball.
Good game guy's 😮
Wemby vs Giannis ooooweeeee what a rivalry already 😅
While Popovich may be a good coach, why does he have to be a d!@% all the time
POP!!!! Still the best interview in the business 😂😂😂😂
Yakkity Yack
Shaq at the end: Say something! Say something!
spurs gonna be nice in the next couple yrs
Kenny need to go easy on that. Beard dye lol
Nobody is calling out the elephant in the room – Coach Pop has done a terrible job with Wemby and the Spurs this season
How about getting Kemba out of Europe to help Wemby out?
Looks like Wemby got lost, but made a very nice recovery on that backboard pass. And F Pop.
This Stream ( Inside The NBA ) is AMAZING!!!
Who got Pj Tucker number we need a pest on our team
I'm so tired of ernie and chuck and kenny…go retire already u bums.. get some new blood running this show
I think wemby has to “get better”
Shaq sounds like an idiot
2:06 “What the hell’s going on with his hair” 💀
Michael Jordan coulda won RoY and MVP if it wasn't such a "stay in your place rookie" league.
shaq is all bass😄
If the Spurs get CP3…… SMH
wendy need lonzo
Shaq really be getting paid millions to be up there to give his "expert analysis" that "Wemby just needs to get better every year"
Please watch Shane Gillis play basketball, please.
🗣️SGA for MVP
wemby is ridiculous bro 🤦🏽♀️ I wish the spurs won this game 😭
sochan is so lame bro such a hater I hope the spurs get rid of him
I don't watch basketball like that til playoff time but is that a typo or is SA really 5-29? It was all these talks about this Wemby guy before the season for them to be 5-29? Who is coaching? Lol
