The situation Pop has built is honestly malpractice for Wemby. Every other team in the top 5 would’ve given him proper guard support to get to spots that he could excel. The Sochan experience is a colossal failure and is depriving the fans of enjoying wembys rookie year.
Bron doubled the Cavs record from 18 to about 35 wins his rookie year, missed playoffs
Didnt make the playoffs till about 3 years later and we all know what happened there
Hahaha
I think Wemby should’ve been drafted by the Celtics
That you Bill?
This is obviously ridiculous, but at the same time I do remember that he was happy to not to be going to the Rockets, but they look a lot better
People are really overreacting to what, less than 20 games in a rookie year? People gave this guy lofty expectations and are surprised he’s not living up to them. If the guy doesn’t get injured, then I find it hard to believe that a 7’4 player who moves like a gazelle is going to be a bust because of the Spurs lack of a point guard. It’s a long season, way to early for all of this. Kobe first couple of years were fucking ugly but no one remembers those. Guys like Shaq or Lebron who come in and reshape a team by themselves are beyond rare and come along once in a generation.
No
Yes with all respect to Spurs fans. Vic is mostly an off-ball big on both ends of the floor, you need the right personnel for the specific talent.
Offensively, the Spurs have no guard to feed him nor do they have the spacing to open up rolls and punish teams who commit too hard.
Defensively, the Spurs don’t have a strong rim protector to allow him to roam effectively nor do they have the perimeter defense to keep him as the low man.
We’re low key tanking. We’re high key experimenting with everything. Trying out no boos, forcing a point forward, letting a 19yr old phenom have an abstract offense that supposedly runs thru him. Atleast we are somewhat competitive for a college aged team, But Pop is doing some odd stuff I wouldn’t have expected
