People HATE This About Victor Wembanyama
Переглядів 2,7 тис.14 днів тому
Victor Wembanyama is one of the most gifted players the NBA has ever seen due to his insane combination of size, fluidity, and overall offensive and defensive versatility. However, the biggest criticism of him is that, given his 7'4 "frame, he should be operating much closer to the basket. Is this a valid criticism?

Zach Edey Is Much Better Than You Think
I remember in the before 2021 draft OCK offered shai for the 1st pick and Detroit hung up the phone.
To my memory, those were rumors. People thought that a 23 year old SGA was “too old” for OKC’s timeline lol. Love Cade, but that would have been a fleece.
No way we actually did that surely not
KD is telling the truth about his height. Look at those players draft profiles
What about Bryce James apparently 6’7 but he 6’3 😂
great video bro
Appreciate it. Thanks for tuning in!
Bron was on that juice
I was meausured as 6.1 but i am 7.4
This is bad.. Ivey is getting better, duren is getting better, cade is getting better.. the team was just starting to gel..
Duren?!?!?
@@scottwickett1273 he talking about his strengths lol. JD just reminds me of andre drummond all over again
@@easymoneyroute1 Yes that's my fear too.
Heart breaking, this post just came out right after Ivey's injury. We were balling. We lost our draft pick if it isn't top 10, so maybe it is a blessing? I don't know, i'm conflicted. Sasser is going to ball out, and maybe he balls out into we can trade him into some higher pick and end up in the lottery, but we are kind of stuck in no mans land but next season I think we will go over .500 regardless.
The Pistons keep their pick if it is 13 or better, not 10.
@ thanks. I thought it was top 10 protected. I still think the Pistons could end up as high as the 6 seed. Hard to say with the Ivey injury.
@@TenThumbsProductions Langdon is not gonna let that happen, he's not THAT dumb, Lol.
Former Polish Center Marcin Gortat was listed in the NBA at 6'11" 240lbs while irl he said that his entire career he was 7'0" 265lbs.
Monty made it his mission to stall our team. IMO this is what we should’ve been doing last year. We’re a year behind thanks to him. Cade trying to make up for lost time
Long term damage. Detroit has always been able to, when they became good they were great at the guard/forward position. Especially at guard. These to will bring them back to that
Cade is 6'7and the Pistons are a mid market team. We're were top 12 in viewership in 2021
Casey wasn't fired. He was promoted. Complete opposite. Hopefully Ivey can get back and better to start the next season
You jinxed ivy!!
My heart aches for him. He and the Pistons actually looked promising. The future is still bright and I wish him a speedy recovery. 🙏🏾
Aaand we can't have nice things. Ivey out 6-8 weeks minimum for a broken fibula.
Damn. He was playing so well too. Wish for a speedy recovery 🙏🏾
You just learned this 😂 they do that all the time 🤦🏽♂️ they been doing that as long as I've been watching basketball.
Lebron was over weight his last year in miami
The new meta is high 3 point percentage or a dunk. There is little reason to shoot hard 2 pointers.
That Kevin Durant picture might be a bit deceptive. We’re talking about a difference of 1 or 2 inches which means perspective in an image can make them look smaller depending on the angle
shoot 35% from 3 at 7"4 at that much attempt is outstanding. people always focus only on % but almost forget his height
WEMBY can do what he wants green light by pops
Ive been a $pur$ fan since 1977 ,I've seen alot of rosters for yrs putting up 3s is where the game is at now so we just gotta deal with it. wait for the future
Just trust the process... Maybe in 1-2 years his body will fill up nicely without losing much speed, agility and shooting touch. Imagine a 7'5" David Robinson body with Sabonis well rounded game, shooting touch of Ray Allen and hyper competitive like Jordan.
Saying he should bang more inside is such a smooth brain, casual take. Bigs shorten their career because they bang down low. Wemby is developing his shot while making sure he grows into his body so he can have a long career.
People? Speak for yourself, snowflake.
Spurs fan here. Yea it's annoying to me sometimes but I sure as hell don't complain when he gets in that zone where he can't miss from the 3. Plus I know that he is being allowed to do it. There is a purpose behind it. There is no better time to use for "practice" than actual live game minutes. Spurs are not winning a championship this year. We know that. This is all part of his learning process, fan approval be damned.
Sure better would be him playing inside and being injured like Embiid Zion..... Wemby is so versatile he is a mismatch anywhere. If he wants to shoot threes so be it!!
Just hating because a player with his height can shoot. Just short dudes whining because it’s unfair so they make up reasons why he shouldn’t take 3’s. Just jealousy 😂😂😂
Wemby could actually average 30 rn if he just took 4 less 3s per game and put those shots inside the paint or midrange
Victor is an Alien who is just starting to scratch the surface and figuring out what he can do on the court he is prolly 3 years away from his prime. Let him develop on his own terms. He going to be Steph, LeBron IQ, KD mid range, his own post player all in one. Think about it, no cry’s Steph is taking to many 3’s they did early in his career then they accepted who he was and he change the game. Wemby going to change the game. Logo 3’s going to be the Wemby shot. I also predict Wemby will become hated just like people hated LeBron. It’s going to be the best for NBA and the face of the league. Wemby already is bringing the best out of NBA players when they play
its not that he shoots too many 3s, but he misses the first quarter of 3s because he hasn't warmed up properly for the game... imagine if he started out the 1st quarter making 50% of 3s or higher instead of missing and warming up....?? They need another "tall" to be on the court in this game, especially when vw is shooting away from the basket. o'nail said vw needed to develop a close in game when his 3s are not falling, also probably useful... also, give Bol a couple million and see if he can be trained to do some of the same roles as vw, worth a year but running out of time for that to occur.
If he wants, he can win all contests of the all star weekend, dunk, 3 pt and skills
Theres too many eyes and minds to put their 2 cents in. He's going to do what's best for him, not for you. Deal with it, whoever it is. He's unique, so no one knows better than he does, and his people around him.
100% all these “fans” who dont know ball
I realize though, he could have had a 60 pt game on christmas if he traded half of those missed threes for dunk and layups, and some more freethrows
Too many threes? But he's making them? His 3pt percentage has risen to 36 from 22 early season, and he's over 40 in the last month. Let him keep firing and expand his game.
I prefer him shooting a lot in his early twenties than he reach his prime without 3pts shooting skills like Giannis who now has to put triple the work to improve his 3pts skills... Everything you put the work in your early career is binufied in you later career and at your peak
Yeah exactly, I know Giannis wishes he had a reliable jump shot, he's gone so far as to reduced his attempts from 3 every year for the last few years
Guys I know you wished Wemby would just focus on scoring in the paint where he is nearly unstoppable and ultimately win every game . I also wished the same so that Spurs nation will celebrate every game. He's not the usual big we are accustomed to who just dominates the inside. He's still young and wants to develop where he is lacking. Let us wait because he will dominate sooner than later.
He play like he want. He knows himself better than anyone so I hope he doesn't care people's opinion
I loved it. Better in the perimeter to avoid injuries. Injuries takes an amazing player weak after injury.
When he will find himself with 3 points trhows, Wemby will score 60 points fingers in the nose. Mark my words guys. It's gonna be unexpected right to our noses. Go spurs go. Build the team. The alien's coming
Like it or not, people need to realize that the game has evolved. He is still in his second year and trying to figure out what he can and can't do (and developing). He had a slow start to the season, but he is hitting 40% of his threes in his last 15 games, which is a stretch that includes 1/9, 2/9, and 1/7 games. In spite of all of that, he's clearly improving, and is nearing the league average despite that slow start and high volume. Just imagine when his shot is perfected - he's still excellent at it, don't get me wrong - but having all of those options with consistency? Jeez. That coupled with him (already!) being one of the most ridiculous defenders we have ever seen, and it may be lights out for the rest of the league. Back to matters at hand. Others want him to just attack the paint, ignoring that the amount of muscle required to do that on a consistent basis would put him out of the league in a matter of a couple of years, especially when you consider his height - Giannis and Embiid are examples of more injury prone players. He could probably gain a few pounds, but for his longevity, he shouldn't be someone who just attacks the paint.
He wanna be a threat from all sides of the court, he'll expand his game. RN he's working on the 3's, next season will be midrange, etc. Headaches for coaches to guard this guy.
Completely agree. I think he’s getting graded too harshly given he’s not even halfway through year two and has already established himself as one of the best players in the league. Based off his progression and the organization in question, he’ll be better each season.
He's a genius and one of a kind player this kid is special still young and he'll grow and will master the game and he'll be the GOAT one day
Exactly! He is more of perimeter player. As his body develops he will get more inside game developed. It’s not like he not shooting mid ranges or scoring in the post. Because he is. Also, he shooting 41% from 3 of the last 15 games. And if people watch the game they are open 3’s tell defense to guard it. When he is mid range or post he is doubled and tripled
If LeBron was 270 in Miami Shaq easy 400lbs
Bros ark is so flat that even Joahkim Noah would be impressed. 😂
They’ve always done this.
The original one who claimed to be shorter than he actually was is Kevin Garnett. He was measured bare footed, while everybody else getting measured in literal high heels. He wanted to avoid being listed as center. He still went down to 6'11" though he was literally as tall as Shaq. The guy was legit 7'1"
Garnett 7'1
PLENTY of 6 footers in the NBA are lying about being 6 foot 1, or 6 foot 2, just cause they want to seem like a proper point guard height. As a 6 foot 3 dude i immediately recognize the 6 footers that are lying about their height.
Kd lied about his height so they wouldn't make him play like bigman. I thought beal was 6'3 for the longest i had no clue they said 6'6. Trae listed at 6'1 but hes probably 5'11. Curry listed at 6'3 but he's probably 6'2 at most
They measure players barefoot now
