    Best thing so far Wemby is doing is showing something he learned from Silas, clapping his hands

    If this is a foul, these people need to be shot.

    Holy ****. This really the guy scouts and analysts creaming all over themselves prior to the draft?

    Can't believe people were saying he is a better prospect than Lebron James.

    To me the most worrying thing is I'm not seeing the strength, explosiveness and quickness people claimed he had. Like look at him move vs Chet, Chet is clearly a lot faster and more athletic.

    Boringyama is going to a boring franchise with a boring coach in a boring city with fat women. [​IMG]

    That’s why they rigged him to them. That franchise otherwise would cease to exist (or move to Austin)

    Portland trying to lose another game at the buzzer. Or the NBA trying to give the game-winning shot to Wembanyama.

    He's going to be an all-star, hell, since its fan vote he might even get in this year on hype alone, and he's going to be good but generational? I don't know about that.

    Wemby takes a horrible shot and Doris and crew starts slurping..."THIS IS PART OF THE ARESENAL!"

    Why can’t Wemby just play bad? It’s messing with me pretending Amen/Bari/Tari are going to be HOFs based off Summer League games.

    He's still totally a bust, guys. Don't give up the dream. He proved it conclusively in that first game. Doesn't really matter what he does the rest of his career, tbh.

    The generational tag has to be earned with him and unlike with Lebron, he does not automatically have most of the American fans behind him.

    Agree that the tag has to be earned, but North America is the melting pot for a reason and has many diff nationalities within the 48/50 Union States, the motto ''out of many nations, one''....... Is used for a reason

    But he will definitely have the millions of Franco-Americans in the USA supporting him, and of course the Spurs/TX base and the country of France

    His game on the court will determine the rest, we shall see

    I agree that he would be a monster in this era defensively but I would be concerned about his Offense.

    He does not strike me as the 28-33 ppg type of scorer that it would need to carve out a career in the Top 12 of All Time type of dude.

    Be Well.
