  1. Excellent decision by the Spurs if he would’ve dropped 27 in his first game that would’ve been his last game. 40 to 45 maybe 50 games max his rookie season. Let him work on his body his second year will be his actual rookie year

  2. Saying "Popovich doesn't embrace the 3" is flatout wrong. His Spurs teams in the early 2010s moved the ball almost exactly like the Warriors do and looked a lot for open 3s, it just didn't devolve into the high volume 3 points offense of the Warriors because instead of Steph and Klay, 2 of the 5 greatest shooters ever, and later KD, arguably another top10 shooter, as your main players their best players were a classical big in Duncan and an attack the basket PG in Parker. And after that iteration of the Spurs he was left with Kawhi, who is an excellent 3p shooter, and Aldridge, basically another classic big, to then swap Kawhi for DeMar, a guy that simply can't shoot 3s. It's pretty hard to "embrace the 3" when your main stars are not 3 points shooters or, at the very least, extremely ball dominant guys that constantly drive to the basket and pass the ball outside.

  3. Colin you should start talking about the European football too specifically the English Premier League

  4. Wemby getting “randomly” selected by THE load management/foreign player hub of the NBA is the biggest conspiracy theory clue of the NBA being rigged no one is talking about.

  5. Load management is only okay when the media agrees with it lmao clowns if you’re gonna criticize load management then criticize everyone that does it otherwise stop complaining about it.

  6. Guess what? Wemby's average is 21 ppg. He averaged 18 ppg in summer league, playing under IMMENSE pressure. If you called Wemby a bust after 1 SL game, you know nothing about basketball.

  7. How on earth are young athletes not supposed to play at a professional level? This is why no one takes this era seriously.

  8. This is a dumb take. If you have to load manage your 19 year old rookie because you’re afraid of him getting hurt you shouldn’t have picked him first.

  9. It was because they where OLD doofus. They weren’t in they prime like these dudes nowadays that’s literally called rest not load management

  10. Kid is 2 years away… He is not in nba shape.. but will show flashes.. but will struggle against more physical bigs… And will get his ball stole from smaller players..

  11. A healthy Wemby should be playing 70-75 games. Hell all 82 if able. "Load management" is not even proven to work. Its corny

  12. Wemby haters gonna be punching the air when the kid is out there only during the playoffs to murder their hopes and dreams🤣

  13. As long as Ohtani doesn't end up with the Wankees. If he goes there I'll stop watching baseball.
