Area51_Spurs | Spurs

59 | 14 hours ago

He also played in the Olympics and has been playing pro since he was 16 years old.

This narrative that he’s going to suddenly shrink in the playoffs is hilarious cope to me.

The Pistons were absolutely beating the fuck out of him and he still manhandled them. Everyone brings their A-game every time they play him. And Castle won a title with UCONN. It’s not like these guys have never played big games before.

Ok-Topic-6095 | Spurs

The more legit concern IMO is this a 90’s Spurs pre-Duncan team where playoff teams triple team Wemby and the role players shrink.

SkyCrossSteel

11 | 13 hours ago

The team has too many good slashers and passers to not find some decent or better offense from that. If you just project fine shooting that’s scary given the quality looks to their better shooters.

kawhi21 | NBA

Having three guards who are good at attacking the paint will mitigate that. Spurs won’t be relying on shooters or wings that can’t dribble all game. Fox, Castle, Harper, and Wemby can go to work inside the arc if shots aren’t falling

he changed his game the past few weeks playing with a more offensive edge. he’s never been this aggressive

Maybe he’s reacting to the chatter about him, or maybe it was planned practice to ramp up for the playoffs. The timing fits.

I’m sorry bro, but Wemby is more entertaining and it ain’t close. All Steph does are 3 pointers and difficult shots. Wemby makes those AND crazy ass dunks AND crazy ass blocks. I’ve never seen Steph do something that’s not been done before. I’m talking about single plays, not cumulative records. Wemby does at least one thing in each game that I have never seen. Often times multiple things. And I’ve played basket-ball for 15 years, coached it for 5 years and watched the NBA for 30 years. It’s Wemby.

Those plays when he drives then clutches up to dunk on his way to the rim and those plays when they just throw the ball at the rim hoping he can yam it in are absolutely comical. I just hope he can bulk up a bit and stay healthy because watching him reminds me of the good ol’ days of destroying my kids on the playskool hoop.

Oh wow.

Wemby will be a favorite to win MVP next season (2027).

Giannis, Jokic, and SGA (once he win his 2nd MVP this 2026) might be all hurt by voter fatigue.

It will be between Wemby and Luka. And I think Wemby have better chance. Reputation wise, and team situation wise.

If he continues on his current form, voter fatigue won’t be a factor. He’s already playing like the best player out there right now. Do it for a full season and there’s no debate.

It’s so funny seeing people legit argue that the Spurs winning most games so easily the last few months that their starters will be well rested and fresh from all averaging 31 minutes a game or less on the season is a bad thing for them

jrlandry | Celtics
