Wemby is done for the night: 40 PTS, 12 REB, 2 STL, 1 BLK on 13-20 FG in 26 MIN!

Had to get 40 before subbing out
Should’ve let him play out the first quarter and then sit out the last three then.
Not worth it we have another game tomorrow lol
Against more plumbers
Easily could’ve gotten 50 but he’s a team first guy and isn’t in the business of jacking up shots and letting his teammates stand in the corner
This guy is a top tier rage baiter. Does enough to piss off Lakers fans but not enough to get banned lol
Ethical baiting
A master baiter
Would you say he is a master baiter?
I mean most of his posts are sad more than anything
You gotta admire the dedication to karma and hate farm
Yeah he kept passing alot instead of spamming shots
Also, after seeing Castle go down, I don’t think Mitch wanted to play with fire like that.
We would be watching a 70 point game if he pulled a david robinson
Who he play?
I have the script
Lakers go on 27-5 run to start 4th quarter led by Dalton Knecht 5 threes
To cut the lead to 30 yes
Kennard hit a huge 3 to cut it to 95-66 with 18:34 to play a few minutes ago, a few more of those, and they’ll be within 25.
I never saw him miss a 3 in garbage time
Just absurd
Out: Victor Wembanyama (garbage time)
V. Wembanyama - Out (bored)
V. Wembanyama - Out (of this world)
V. Wembanyama - Out (had something better to do)
Fuck man imagine his final form, I’m salivating.
We wanted proof of wilt and god said “fuck you”
I want the full load
This is just what happens when teams single guard him like the Mavs did opening night
Triple teaming him and letting everyone else try and beat you is mandatory tbh. Especially as short handed as the Lakers were idk why they left Jake Laravia on an island with him
If 2 of Castle/Fox/Harper can become above average perimeter shooters, it’s over.
Fox is kind of there. When he is having a good night he can hit from anywhere but then he will go cold for 2 games. I have high hopes for Harper because he has decent spot up numbers he just has issues off the dribble
Blonde hair with blue eyes and yellow aura
Idk why you’re getting downvoted, this is clearly a DBZ super saiyan joke
Cell saga theme plays
Imagine if he gets smaller but stronger like Frieza
40 points in 26 minutes is just insane stuff lol
Klay had 37 in 10 minutes
Glad you could make this about yourself again
Right but that was an abnormality. Not sure how many times Jordan or Kobe scored 40 in 26 because they seldom only played 26m. We’re in a new world and Wemby is a cheat code
Aight man we don’t need to invalidate Wemby’s achievement, it’s still nuts he achieved that much in so little time.
points per second wise if you look at wemby’s 25 per 8 mins (it was (?)) they aren’t too far off which is impressive when you consider klay was on a heater as a top 2 shooter ever.
Now let’s look at Klays defense… oh my… to shreds you say…
as much as I want to see him see the game out and break Wilt’s record, I think of Rose and accept the reality of things
There’s no world where he was getting 100
Yes yes “he had 25 in 7 so if you extrapolate..” could do this for so many games. If 100 was that easy we’d have seen it. It’s bonkers and will never happen
Kobe’s 81 is the realistic one
It’s more Klay’s 37 that was very breakable that was the annoying part
Yeah 81 and 100 involve a concerted intentional effort by the team.
Record for a quarter - nothing wrong with feeding the hot hand for 12 minutes.
Also relies on the other team since the game needs to be competitive
I still can’t believe that really happened, the splash bro’s in their prime were unreal
There is a possibility of a 100-ball if the Lakers actually made it a game at the offensive end.
This is the real problem, a player scoring that many points and the game being close enough for them to stay in is almost unimaginable. Like we’ve seen a few 70 point performances the last few years, you still need to score 45% more points to hit 100 at that mark. It would be fucking insane.
Indeed so. It would have to be a weird performance where the Spurs defence went to sleep for that to occur.
So the possibility is there, but so remote its unlikely to happen.
That would break the code right? :-)
But seriously it’s like running up the score on steroids if you’re winning so easily you feed the hot hand til they get 100. Very disrespectful.
To be fair think the Lakers would be fouling Wemby so hard if he was even remotely close to Kobe’s 81 scoring mark.
Embiid had 70 in 37, Klay had 37 in 12. It’s possible.
I scored 4 points in one minute at my local gym. Therefore, I’m on pace for 192 points if I play the whole game.
This is why the record will probably never be broken in the modern era. Not because it can’t be physically done. But because pretty much any game where a player is dominating that much is going to be such a blowout that he’ll just be made to sit for half the game.
Doubly so for Wemby who carries an entire franchise’s future on his back and will never play a minute more than absolutely necessary in the regular season. Unfortunate but it is the way things are.
Yup. This is the learned answer
Yeah games like Wilt’s 100 or Kobe’s 81 were close games not 30 point blowouts
P much
What record?
You’ve never heard of Wilt Chamberlain’s 100 point game? The most points ever scored by a single guy in a single game! It’s the most legendary record in basketball history!
I wasn’t watching any of the game, I didn’t realize that was a conversation being had. And considering wilt has a jillion records I figured it was a valid question.
Fair enough, I just mean if we’re talking about scoring and how fast then there’s one record that obviously stands out. Just from the context of the post and the other comments. But youre right, with Wilt it could be anything haha they call him “The Record Book” for a reason!
Ehh let him try. That body ain’t lasting 12 years regardless of how cautious you guys are.
Tied his season-high
Impressive as hell but look at his competition too lol
Yeah LA has like no one playing tonight lol
JJ almost went out
He was just fucking around at the end lol.
lol
going to the bench with 16:13 left is diabolical work
Diabolical, so overused
Is it tho. I feel like it happens quite often these days 🤷
Glad they got him out, he was playing sloppy after halftime and we already lost Castle to injury in this game so no reason to take any more risks.
There is nothing more I hate than someone going off and not feeding the hot hand. I guess Im supporting the wrong team.
Fr though, I wanted to see Wemby bury us even more, at least it’s entertaining. Let the man show out a little.
If only Lakers had a center who was #1 pick
Ayton didn’t play.
Neither did luka, lebron, or austin.
Here comes the elite 2 way gameplay. GG
Teammate ignoring him in the second half was bizarre.
Sure, he was playing against scrubs but if I’m a Lakers fan what the fuck is this roster then? Y’all constructed a first or second round exit squad lmao.
A Bull’s flair talking about roster construction is hilarious.
Not really. How much lower can the Bulls get? We’re at rock bottom. Come join hell with us for all I care LOL
“Y’all” or fried ass Rob Pelinka?
True. Fire Pelinka
Speechless. This man is 1 of 1.
Fuck that man. Let him get 50 if only for the DoorDash promo 😭
You’re welcome basketball fans. Lakers intentionally did this to showcase the league’s one and only alien unicorn.
Should have had 60
But the record books!!!!
2k type shit
Cowards should have let him go for Wilts record.
fuckin hell
This is why 2024 was so important for me because Wemby is gonna be somehow even more ridiculous in short order. I’m just happy the Jays secured a title before then.
Wait, that’s not 181..
Context, it’s against the Lakers benching half their guys but the player only fans don’t care
Be honest, if it was SGA would you have said the same ?
No cause the Lakers defense sucks
Good thing for opposing teams this will be short lived. Those knees disintegrating with that body type and consistent workload.
