Call me old school but Wemby needs to put the ball on the floor there. You pump fake at the three point line and get the defender out the way — you have a lane and you should drive.

Spoiler:
Im on the Wemby goat train but my god he plays like an absolute pussy on offense.

All those **** days spent with the monks at that shaolin temple re-enacting Drunken master and that Jet Li shaolin temple movie only to watch this **** dude who's 10'5 shoot threes.

He's a fraud Shaolin guy. Jackie Chan in drunken master would never ever be this much of a pussy on offense.



This is a vulgar post. Warned for language. Take the tone down, please. Thank you!

Wemby worrying me again. This is the third game in the row where he turns into Rudy Gobert on offense

Wemby’s recent struggles are based on frustrations with his teammates and him pressing. They just don’t care to get him places he is effective in and seem so focused on scoring themselves.

It’s reminding me of the beginning of last year and it seems like some players just want their numbers. If these players can’t see/make the passes to Wemby then maybe they aren’t the long term for the team needs

Wemby wants to be a guard so bad, self-nerfing his height advantage

That first game was just so good and different in the way he played that I really thought he came in with a completely different approach/mindset this year.
But he's still the same player really.

I don t think he ll ever be a consistent number one option on offense. Seems like his offensive game is predicated a lot on momentum. He can torch you if his jumper is falling but once good teams gameplan for him they can neutralize him on offense

Why on god's green earth is Wemby standing in the corner on offense?
