Re: Wembanyama. I'm concerned
All this being said, I'm not concerned about VW, I'm more concerned about Pop if anything and his ability go coach this team.
I see some people stating that the Spurs are tanking or giving their players free reign to develop. If you have zero direction or no generational talents on your team (like the Raptors for the past several years), them I think this is a plausible strategy. In fact, I wanted the Raptors to tank for VW.
But now that the Spurs have their guy, they should try to build a culture of winning and build good habits. I think building a culture of losing/dysfunction can have direction effects in years to come.

If I am complaining about Bornstellar being annoying, doesn't that make him the aggressor?
Why are the mods so one sided?
Who is the top mod and how can I message him?
You can PM him, their username is bigboi

He doesnt get fouls because he never reaches or swings his arm forward on blocks. That's whats really terrifying, he already knows how to get a high volume of blocks without hacking.
Yeah, he learned pretty fast about jumping around too much and how to use his length to contest. It's kind of insane how much verticality he has while his feet are nailed flat to the ground.

Sorry but the potential GOAT talk has to simmer down now. None of the GOATs had this bad of a first season on a team level

The way he is playing, the moment the minute restriction is OFF, SAS will have to be inventive to keep the tank going, maybe play Collins as PG?! This man (Wemby) will win games by himself sooner than later.

He's one of a kind like how Shaq first came into the league. He'll be fine and fun to watch for years to come.

This kid is a legit All Star-level player already.
Best rookie I've seen in quite some time.
Already dominant on defense and can score in just about every way imaginable on offense.

Re: Wembanyama. I'm concerned
LOL. Every time this thread is upped I go to check the Spurs box score to check out Wemby's latest masterpiece. This guy is so unbelievable, and only 20 years old. Yeesh.
