  1. Even though my Warriors got their butts kicked earlier at least I can go to bed at least somewhat happy tonight with Wemby doing his thing and seeing the Spurs get a W. Spurs fans y'all should be blessed that y'all have a very talented player like Wemby because players like him are very rare to find.

  2. Like Jokic in Denver, every single play should go through Wemby. Barring a fast break or something there should never be a play that doesn't have him touching it. Man, he's gonna get better and better

  3. Last year spurs won 22 games without Wemby with the same roster this year they are on pace to win 25 games with him.

    Now before the season started you people who are so obsessed with th Wemby and his stats told us he would go to the play in and win 35-40 games this season. You said that because spurs won 22 games without him and you expected them to win 10-15 games with him since you projected him to be so unbelievable.

    Now you said this and not me so don’t come and give me excuses on why they not gonna win 30 games or even 25 games when you expected them to win 35. Don’t attack me don’t call me a hater you clowns said that and expected that not me.

    They have won 13 games so far 13 games Pistons are on 9 and again I’m quoting you casuals you called them the worst team in the NBA and yet they are 4 games worst than Spurs. Hornets are on 15 games this season they played majority of games without Lamelo now no Washington they didn’t have Bridges and they have two more.

    Again I’m just wondering how do you guys go from expecting someone to go to the play in and even make playoffs and have such unrealistic expectations to now when they are not making those you still keep going on about them I don’t get it how is this impressive when he didn’t do what you guys told us he gonna do lol

    On the other side a guy nobody is talking about nobody expected him to be where he is Chet. Last year OKC were 42-40 this year they already have 41 wins and they only added Chet. They are projected to win 55 games this season that means 15/20 games they are better than last year with Chet. While Spurs are same or worst with Wemby. I don’t get the biased towards Chet and all these narratives about having SGA when he is putting up almost same numbers as last year. Media is doing everything they can do discredit Chet and elevate Wemby it’s sad because I think if the shoe were on the other foot Chet would win more games with Spurs than Wemby be more efficient have better numbers. While Wemby would play for OKC with two more good players and have to be a role player third option and less touches and I guarantee you they wouldn’t be as good as they are with Chet.

    Like I said playing in a system being a third option having a specific role with having to take 9-11 shots a game that’s it and being the only big man rim protector and only one that plays defence in the paint and having all that responsibility is different than a guy who takes 17 shots a game and 5 threes a game averages 3.5TO a game to get 20ppg is horrible efficiency. Than people say well he is being guarded by everyone yeh I watch games that’s not true he just takes tougher iso shots and takes fade ways and tough contested threes that’s why is is inefficient because of his shot selection.

    Anyway im not impressed with Wemby or what he is doing I expected Spurs to be better than they are I don’t think they have a bad team they have Vessell who is a great 20 ppg player Johnson as well can get you buckets and they have Sochan and Wemby it’s a nice little team with Pop as a coach I expected them to win at least 25 games that was my projection anything less than that is a failure.

    Rant over

  4. I remember there was that report before the draft about NBA executives believing he could be both the best offensive and defensive player in the league by his third season (along with saying he's the best prospect since Kareem).
    That ain't looking so crazy atm…

  5. Bro just the play with keldon having the ball in the corner, victor sees no one in the paint, now victors in paint fukn easy lob to him. Hes insane
