Wemby is on a tear to start this season but Ware seems to be the Anti-Wemby when we play against them. Hopefully that keeps up and he’s engaged, it’s not that crazy to say Wemby is already top 5, we’re witnessing a player with potential to surpass LeBron as the GOAT.

Crazy but true fact, the Spurs have never started a season 5-0. If they beat us it would be the 1st time in franchise history.

With that build, Wemby will never stay healthy consistently enough or for enough years to surpass Lebron, let alone MJ. Lets see if he can chase down Kareem ... or Tim Duncan or David Robinson.

Yep, that’s pretty much the only question mark. If he stays healthy it’s pretty much set in stone that he’s going to be an all time great, we’ll see how that body holds up. Iirc he does some pretty crazy stuff to keep his body and joints in top shape but I’m sure that only goes so far. He had the blood clot scare last year too which could easily come back

I hope he can. Hes like 7'7" and has a good head on his shoulders. I want to see him succeed.

Hope Ware busts his ass this matchup though.

Wemby is probably the most flexible guy at that size, maybe ever. So he has that going for him.

Yes. Wemby has done what it takes to succeed in regards to his physical health. He knows he has to be very detailed with a once in a millenia chance at success.

Any news on my boy Jakucionis? I know that groin injuries are very delicate to deal with, since its a body part thats always in motion, but some type of timetable would be nice.

Powell is doubtful, Jovic is questionable

Jovic just might be one of those guys that is rarely healthy for extended periods.

Let's see if a team like the Spurs will put a serious game plan for the Heat. It's unusual to see serious game plans for an opponent to this early

Well considering Don Quixote de La Mancha was Spanish by literature, the more accurate nickname would be Pancho Villa.
As far as Fontecchio, costa nostra ( our thing or ours ) fits, I like “Mamma Mia” personally, especially when making those 3s.
For Wiggins, more like “lil spiders on me” the way he plays at times.
