It doesn't matter how much they were back then, it matters how much they are right now.

If Wemby becomes the best player since LeBron (better than KD, Steph, Jokic and Giannis), his current prices are a steal. Hype has gone down a bit.

I don’t think hypes gone anywhere, I just don’t see anyone’s base prizm holding at 100 plus raw when mass product is released.

Oh absolutely, volume is too high for that to happen nowadays.

50? If we have more games like today's, it's a real possibility.

Yeah I’d guess 50ish in a couple weeks when you see retail everywhere, have a feeling it’ll dry up a lot sooner this year though.

ESPN app froze midway through the game. He put up a ton of numbers later

You are correct! Above is what espn shows. Thought that was really off. I guess we need to check NBA.com vs espn. Thanks

100% agree.

Silver is actually the new base.

Spurs would be a better team if Wemby stopping trying to hit 3's...it's almost like they are trying to lose on purpose...

Wembys only playing 20 mins a game not like they’re trying to win this year

He’s on a point per minute run right now over the last 200 or so minutes but that first half was horrendous by everyone. Straight cheeks. If Devin shows up for either of the last two games they may have gotten one. He’s been off and they need him to lead.

Got to see this one in person and dude is impressive. Limited minutes and still has an impact. Just watching the Hawks go to their 2nd/3rd options just because he’s close. Then those moments when he had the Hawks fans turning to me and saying yeah he’s nice

Pop told him to shoot them because it's a development year

Delete - not worth it ( not because of your comment here mbrahv1984 …. because of what’s coming )

That’s not how it works. Wouldn’t expect you to know that, tho

What the hell’s wrong with you? ( my guess is, a lot )

[spurs50fan]

It's hard to convince anyone that the roster is severely flawed. It's basketball and if the "GOAT" has taught you anything...you need players around you. Players don't complement, you change 'em like underwear.

They were down 35 and cut it to 6 by starting Barlow, Champagnie and Wesley in the second half. Wrap your mind around the fact these are actual rotational players for the Spurs. Add to that Keldon and Devin went a combined 3-22. They still cut it to 6 because those guys brought effort and Wemby went off.

Throughout the chaos of the first half, getting benched and ultimately losing a winnable game he comes out and says he welcomes the criticism/benching and challenge from Pop? Now with all the diva-like attitudes in the leagues today, some people still have a problem with this guy? Puts in the work, says all the right things and is putting up numbers WHILE on minutes restrictions.

Truth is, no matter what he does positive, they'll be sucking lemons lmao

You’re not on RealGM, an elite fraternity of basketball savants where you only gain access through a rigorous process over the course of months, carefully vetted.

Well, my wife just signed up there and is already posting.

Amen to that (some members have been incredibly quiet this past week or so...)

Listen, gents, we need to poo-poo Wemby to kill some hype and lower prices so we can stock up!

I don't even think it comes to that. Some here said that he would fail from the beginning because he would get crushed by the Embiids, Giannises and Zions, and they don't want to concede that they were plain wrong (and no, I did not just write that he had become the GOAT...)

Unironically this

The post count to basketball minutes watched ratio here is at least 1000:1.

It’s such a mind numbingly dumb thought that rookie prospects should be efficient on volume from day 1.

The greatest prospect ever, LeBron, didn’t even shoot 42% from the floor and 29% from 3 in year 1. One of the greatest scorers of all time, KD, 43% from the floor and 29% from 3… Embiid (after 2 years in the NBA albeit injured) 47% from the floor.

He’s shooting 52% from the field over the last 10 games after a really slow start but it doesn’t even matter.

Yes, but he's very tall and therefore he should have a 128% FG percentage.

[oldgoldy97]

The NBA should get rid of the rule that you have to be behind the line for FTs. I’d like to see Wemby dunk each one (Giannis, too).
