Wemby gets the board and goes behind the back for his second straight dime.

It's crazy how Wemby has become must see TV all of a sudden for me.

Always been extremely talented of course, all star level last year but still, I was kinda "meh" about some of his decision making that lead to bad shots (waaaaaaaayyyy too many 3s) or bad turnovers, his reluctance at times to use his height to do damage in the post, not playing as physical as I'd have liked him to be etc

This Wemby though....different story.
Basically erased all the "bad" and plays a dominant brand of ball I didn't expect so soon.

2 pieces* honestly. Our 3 and 4 positions both need significant upgrades. You’re not going to make deep Playoff pushes with Julian Champagnie and the corpse of Harrison Barnes in your starting lineup (or playing as many minutes as they do in general). Those guys are bench players/depth pieces for any team that is seriously contending.

We have Kelly Olynyk coming back (along with Fox obv) so we’ll see what he looks like. He may be an upgrade over Barnes at the 4 if he plays well. But at almost 35 years old, he’s a short term solution at best, not a long one.

Wemby is a AI robot. You can't convince me otherwise.

Trae Young will shoot his team right out of a lead.

Why wouldn't the Spurs want to go all in on Walker Kessler, Imagine them having Kessler/Wemby frontcourt?

How did Dallas manage to get 5 straight home games to start the season? Heck their first road game is in Mexico City.
