Our entire team might genuinely be braindead because wtf was that
Gafford’s shot was pure hubris
I guess Gafford had no choice coz of the shot clock but bro Wemby was fully draped all over him before he even went up 😂😂😂
At that point just chuck the ball straight up into the air and hope it doesn’t hit the scoreboard on the way up, and then pray it goes in.
Yeah that shot was definitely risky with Wemby guarding him.
That’s the shot of a man who doesn’t know Wemby is powered by the dems and the thems (ironically red Court not withstanding)
Ngl that retro spurs court slaps hard
if he endorses Melenchon it’s going to be really fucking tough not to root for the Spurs
both le pen and melenchon are legitimately horrible, just opposite ends of the spectrum. france is cooked.
He bumps elbows with billionaires and has kids in sweatshops make his shoes
So does every other athlete.
He was defending their honor
Does Wemby get that sort of block much (as opposed to the first 2)?
That’s his signature block, more often than any other type. It’s why he doesn’t get posted up as much as you’d expect.
you can’t just shoot perimeter shots the whole time. you need to go at him at some point
Yeah this effort may pay dividends later in the game. It just looks silly to us now.
Gotta jump into his chest tho, without getting into his body you don’t have much of a chance
Gafford went straight into his chest before going up and still got stuffed
Yeah it doesn’t work every time but it’s a significantly better chance.
Not everyone can yam it on him like Coby white
they’ve tried. morez johnson, pj washington, and gafford have all tried and missed their shots at the rim due to great contests
That was the T-Wolves playoff strategy last year. For a few games anyway.
This I actually kinda get, Wolves employed a similair strat game 1 of the West Semis and it worked fine. Go at Wemby repeatedly to tire him out and hopefully get him in foul trouble
Mf got 5 blocks and it’s not even halftime lmao
Plus 22/14/2/2 to go with them, in under 15 minutes. Ridiculous.
29/15/5 (blocks) at the half. I’m sorry but WTF
He’s playing on Rookie difficulty
And they still keep coming back for more lol.
Farmed 60% of them in like 5 seconds lmao
Best interior defender ever and best interior shot blocker ever. This dude isn’t from Earth and isn’t our kind.
He’s insane. Hoping he gets a quad double this game lol
His next evolution is blocking the ball to himself and gaining possession at a high rate. Dude is on another level.
Honestly he does it pretty often but occasionally he mixes in some disrespectful volleyball spikes
he has to send a message every now and then
What I’ve started doing when I block shots is to swat them towards the other basket. I find that they end up going in 92% of the time.
Flaggs was forgivable, Wemby has a hard time blocking floaters.
PJs shot might have been a good decision if he timed it right.
Gaffords attempt is downright foolish
Most impressed by Wemby BARELY moving from that Gafford shoulder, he’s very noticeably stronger.
League ain’t ready for Blue Texas Wemby
Nobody is ready for his transition….offense
Both the senator and gov are dem Spurs fans. He’s literally going to ascend into flowstate
Building a wall around the paint
DEI stands for Defense Incarnate
lol Wemby for president!!
That red paint needs a blue paint.
…dallas is in texas too
The governor is a Spurs fan
love the username lol
Unfortunately
wemby already figured out blocking
he’s so big he now knows he can literally just wait for players to commit to the shot/jumping then he just jumps late and he gets it every time lol
don’t think there’s anything you can do offensively in these situations besides some crazy circus shot, if he times this right floaters won’t even work cause he can just punch it out of the air
with his height it’s basically a cheat code because he can delay his jump and meet it at the apex anyway
being able to defend floaters at a decent level will be insanity lol
if the spurs guards and wings develop defensively it’s not gonna be any fun to play them at all
he’s also pioneered the method of getting two block attempts on one shot by swiping with one arm on the way up and then using the other arm at the top or on the way down
Who can shoot a floater to get over him even
Ihart is good at getting his floater off quickly before Wemby can block it
Id like to see the stats cuz every time i see it he misses
Only the Skyfucker, Stephen Curry
Especially when you can only call in your orbital strike 2-3 times per game. Devs need a balance patch asap.
Isaiah Hartenstein
Believe it or not Darryn Peterson did it a couple times last week
Brunson
We learned this the hard way
Surely at the third attempt you try and do something beyond the arc…or paint
Or 3 point line
GETTHATSHITOOOOUUUUTTTTTAAAAHEEEERRRREEEEEEE!!!!
Gafford are you outside of your mind trying that post-up
he thought he was going up against rookie wemby and wanted to bully him
He’s got 25/14/2/2/5 in 14 minutes… unreal production.
It’s okay tho because he got figured out
I love this dude.
wemby also is on 5x5 watch as well
The Mavs are stat padding Wemby? I don’t understand the plan.
Mavs gameplan was basically to go at the rim while the best Rim protector of all time is waiting down low. Great gameplan.
The defense is beyond anything I can remember watching. The offense has full flashes of “what the fuck is going on?”.
Even if his skills peak here, he’ll be one of the best 10 (?) players of all time.
Godlike player man lol
Wemby on a mission tonight. He’s absolutely obliterating them on both ends of the floor.
Wemby bricking all his 3s so far but hes 15-15 on his FTs tonight wtf
Alien behavior 👽
I think you mighta jinxed him a little bit on those free throws lol but all’s well that ends well.
He high pointed a floater from 12 feet out and he side armed it lol
I wonder if this is what watching Wilt was like
If at first you don’t succeed…try try on someone else
don’t forget that victor wembanyama is the greatest player to ever grace the court
Heard everyone talking shit about “no one is afraid of Wemby anymore”.
That was comical
something something insanity
Pretty sure he got yet another block in the last possession (as of writing this comment)
that’s f ridiculous
Are they stupid? I mean for real not jerking now
