Seriously??
Did he go training in the hyperbolic time chamber during the summer? How does he look like the best player in the world all of a sudden??

You're wondering why the biggest NBA talent ever looks like the biggest NBA talent ever, in his 3rd year in which most stars make their significant leaps? :)

That is my concern.
I feel like NAW was a good signing but also hyped up by many.

Feels like the latter. Very undisciplined. They are playing like they have never seen Wemby before in their lives.

Well it is the newest version of Wemby to be fair. Nobody's prepared.

The kid is unreal. Honestly there will never be a higher ceiling than what he has right now. The man is a comet you will likely never see again.

How is Wemby a real person? I have seen players dominate a game, but never like this.

This is what happens when you train against Luke Kornet every day.
