‘We’ve NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE WEMBANYAMA!’ 🔥 – Greeny on Wemby vs. Chet Holmgren | Get Up

A bunch of good Hoops last night including the game that was here in New York last night guys Steph Curry 31 points Warriors beat the Knicks let’s talk about this from both sides Monica we start with golden state they’ve been better the last month or so are we

Buying them as a team that could make a run Monica uh they have won seven Road games I think they’re like 12 out of 15 in terms of wins I love Steph he’s very pragmatic in interviews and afterwards he said they still got some work to do

To make some movement in the standing so the answer is yes but it’s a lot to be seen still where are the warriors in all of this Allen as we look at that Murderers Row that is the Western Conference where do the Warriors we know where they literally stack up which is

You know down there in that playin area but where do they Stack Up amongst legitimate contenders team you don’t want to face in the first round for sure because of their experience they have now all of a sudden depth Chris Paul and Klay Thompson coming off the bench is a

Much different look than a lot of other teams will have so that’s to their favor to me what they lack which will keep them from being being a team that gets deeper maybe even to a final four is their size they’re just not big enough

Of a team last night they did an amazing job rebounding the basketball against a great rebounding Knicks team that is yes underman but they still get after it so they can rebound when they do it as a team but size-wise I think it’s what’s holding them back and let’s talk about

That number you see at the bottom right of your screen the Knicks three and eight in their last 11 bad sign bad stretch what are we looking at zolof is coming out all around New York anxiety is rising because right now this is that biggest concern is is was January the

Best we’ve seen of this Nick team will we ever get to see that team whole again and healthy again they are getting their guys back in the next couple of weeks but coming up greeny this is tough in the East because they’re facing all these teams now that have caught up to

Them in the standings and could push them down you’ve got Cleveland who’s killing everybody you’ve got Atlanta who’s hanging in there you’ve got Orlando that has beaten the next three times and then two games against Philadelphia before you go to West Coast trip tough stretch coming up right now

I’ve got clown up in in the locker do you need it mcnut or are you okay I’m a breathing exercise girl so we want bre yeah uh they’re going to be okay they’re going to be okay they got to get healthy that’s that you just cannot Escape that

Fact they have to get healthy there’s a ton of promise I don’t believe January is the best you’ve seen if they get healthy but everybody’s waiting and watching all right I open the show this morning showing you what LeBron James did last night 31 points in a Lakers

Overtime win over the Wizards including an unbelievable chase down block you’re going to see it right here in the OT against I mean this is is vintage vintage LeBron and I’ll remind you this is the second night of backto backs in which he led that Furious comeback against the Clippers the night before

I’ll underline they needed overtime to beat the Wizards at home last night so what they’re so dependent on LeBron at his age I’ll ask you the same question as I did about the Warriors when we look at the the Western conf I mean yeah the Lakers like where do they where do they

Figure into everything I think they figure a little bit closer because they have LeBron James they have with Anthony Davis I mean they have the experience of getting to a Conference finals last year with essentially this group now when I say the Warriors are too small the

Lakers are not deep enough that might be the thing that holds them back on a run because for LeBron James what you see out of him is that he can still get to a high level and that’s who he’s fourth quarter against the Clippers an unbelievable fourth quarter that he had

Where he got red hot and then you see him here also when it’s winning time he’s still there but Ken LeBron James played 24 minutes can he played 22 minutes in his second half of a playoff game night in night out because you’re going to need him to do that and I don’t

Know again 39 years old we keep waiting for it but it’s a lot to ask of him because they still rely on him so much I think right now the Lakers and Warriors would run into one another in the playin for the 10 and nine it would now yes

Yeah which is which is kind of crazy uh I’m inclined to agree with Han I like the size that the Lakers have to me and and it could be matchups right you could say Minnesota versus Golden State maybe the speed wins I will say last night watching The Warriors I understand why

Draymond was so confident to start the week but back to the Lakers to me their ability to defend makes them dangerous because of all of that size and then we nobody is counting LeBron James out even at this stage of his career because if you go by him getting you two Anthony

Davis gets you one your role players get you one you guys know the formula when it comes to Series so but they’ve got to get to a series and there’s a lot of work to be done in the meantime I want to show you something that you have

Literally never seen before in your life we’ll call it I candy this is Victor wanyama on Chad hren just look at that calm down DW calm down DW oh are you not entertained I I I swear I was looking at the Highlight on my phone I’m like if

This conversation comes up I’m I’m chiming in get me in here it’s two aliens out here like one’s like 72 and then another one 75 playing like point guards like this is crazy is there anything in the world of B and by the way for those of you not paying

Attention that’s one of 47 block shots that W banama had in the month of February which is as many as the Bulls and nicks had and more than five other teams combined in that month he just turned 20 years old can we just run a reel of wmi doing things that just don’t

Look normal because they’re not we’ve never seen anything like this guy before your thoughts he is going to be a guy that the whole league is now going to be relying on to take the mantle from LeBron James and Steph Curry there’s no other player in the league that has all

These things you need to be a face of the league he’s got it all including by the way great personality but the compelling stuff on the floor the size I mean that’s IM that’s that was Giannis by the way everybody that wasn’t just some bum he blocked Giannis going to the

Basket this guy’s got everything you need on the court he’s got the Charisma personality off the court you had to see him with the crowd last night in San Antonio it was unbelievable when he grabbed the mic and started talking to him but what’s missing Monica he’s got a

Win got a win he’s got win he just got here I mean is he starting to live up to the hype is he living up to the hype I guess from a realistic standpoint Monica yes absolutely you look at the numbers the historic five and five or five five

Five whatever game yeah however many there are got five everything what I think to me what is most intriguing I’ve had a chance to cover a couple of Spurs games in person and if you listen to Pop talk about him he’s just scratching the surface he’s still very much learning

How to play NBA back basketball so man this is going to be something to see he would he’s 20 years old we’re at the combine right now right we’re looking at football players tell give give me the breakdown on this guy this young fell 20

Years old 75 doing all of that yeah man I mean come on man like took logo three last night logo three Logo three yeah logo three we’ve never seen you’ve never seen I’m telling you you’ve never seen anything like it you see where the Lakers sit I mean they’re at 9 the

Warriors are at 10 but look how tightly packed everybody is I mean they like one week away from being out of the play in if things going to go their way so I guess look we are we are living in a world where LeBron James came from the

Playin last year and carried his team to the Western Conference Finals you look at this team that he has you look at the way they depend on him does he have that in him again this year yeah you you think he can right you think he can

Because anytime you say you anytime you bet against LeBron James you’re going to lose because he continues to prove that he is not something you can compare to anybody else in history not just the talent but also what he’s doing at the age of 39 and what we’re showing you

Here is in a backto back let’s not forget that winning situation chase down block the body’s not willing but the mind tells him to do it that three that’s a tough three late in the game with the minutes he’s playing and then the cut to the basket and a beautiful

Pass to ad as well just the little things that he’s doing that we take for granted so now the question is can he do this for 16 wins in the spring after a full season that’s going to take greeny 20 22 minutes in a second half of all

These games and that’s the question what did we talk about last year we went through this with him we got to the Conference Finals and I I likened it to the battery your phone battery that when it goes old it doesn’t charge fully anymore and it doesn’t hold the charge

And that’s the question about LeBron that we the only thing you can ask him the only human element that he has in his game is the age and can that battery charge every night to deliver what the Lakers need from him so if we stick with that analogy let’s not forget last year

He had the minor injury and we discussed whether or not ad would be able to step up for this Lakers Squad and by default the battery was being infinitely recharged just having the opportunity to rest and he missed like a month at the end of the season and then power into

That postseason it doesn’t look like a knock on wood you never want to see a guy get injured but just what kind of toll does playing the paces of a regular season and then going through they would need two wins in the playin right now

And then to a well keep in mind too they’re two games out of like the six spot that’s the point that’s true so if you can get out of that right so so he’s probably going to have to empty the tank just to see if they can get a top six

Spot and so you’re right about that again it’s the mileage it’s that no one’s questioning LeBron’s ability to do it it’s more or less physically can he do it because they rely on him so much in the meantime mcnet always gets mad at

Me when I do this but I like to live in this fantasy world where at some point LeBron and Steph are going to team up and so does Draymond Green so Draymond Green and Carmelo Anthony are on a podcast and they were talking about the trade that almost happened LeBron to the

Warriors and Carmelo talking about whether or not LeBron and Steph would win the championship if they were together take a listen Steph and LeBron I think that team win a championship no problem easy easy I don’t think so crazy I don’t think it what he I don’t think so

Because guess what LeBron is going to Golden State you got to build another another can’t go nowhere can’t goere can’t go nowhere talk to me mcnut Lebron and Steph first of all what what are you drinking what what what color is that it’s it’s beet juice it’s called a

Hangover hel I do not have a hangover at all but it’s juice it looks delicious it’s very delicious uh yeah okay anyway the point of it is LeBron’s probably drinking a lot of that to be doing what hey he’s heavy on the beet juice right now one way or another LeBron and Steph

You’re telling me that team doesn’t win a championship melo’s crazy come on those two guys melo’s my guy I think we need I need I think we need a longer clip I think we need a longer clip because I think his point is what is going to be around those two come on

Y’all like yes Steph LeBron together amazing but what’s going to don’t look at me like that Han what’s going to be around those Su that’s there’s a legit question there greedy I wanted this so badly come you heard the rumors legit question get these two together this would be unbelievable The Expendables

Five like get these two together and watch them work it would be the most Unstoppable pick and roll tandem that we have ever seen it and the knowledge that they have that they experience it would be such theater to have these two together we were robbed of it

Unfortunately thebr didn’t want to do it then let’s do this but how do they win come on let’s do this let’s do it then right give me the give me the starting five with those two together and who’s who’s going in the deal that’s what I’m

Saying to you you tell me well is it Wiggins kuminga was it was cl going it’s going cost all the people come on right is it going to cost some of that stuff pie you hold on the pods Moody let’s say you still got to have somebody

Left but these two guys together would be special and all you’d have to do is just have capable players around them and you would have a team that would be very hard to beat I I got you but let hard to beat being the keyw I don’t

Think you can roll over one of the other teams that would be in the west LeBron sta you me and Han could wind up making in the play right she can knock down thre few people by the way Carmela was my assistant coach and that when I was

Coaching the Celebrity Game and he was signing autographs the whole time when I needed a play Run so I’m still holding a Grudge
