    There are only two thoughts in my head watching Wembanyama: 1. No human being that tall has ever played NBA basketball without succumbing to crippling injuries 2. No human being that tall has ever moved so fluently.
    I really, really hope that point 2. prevails and he has the career we all want to see. It would be awesome. Something we could barely imagine. That we have KD being able to shoot and handle the way he does is freakish in itself.

    I look forward to seeing him match up against Giannis. What a thing to consider! This kid is like a mix of Giannis and Durant.

    It does make sense because what you don't see is that he will blow his knees out during his first season. No one can be that tall and that mobile and not get serious knee issues.

  • @ryanclegg55

    The way he moved on back pedal's in the older footage looked really clunky. His movement in the G League games is soooo much smoother

    Let's just hope he lives up the hype. No matter how good his skills are on paper, all of these don't matter in the NBA without great conditioning and mindset.
    Remember Zion? We all thought he'd be breaking boards, scoring records, dunk contests, blocks, etc. However, all that seems to be breaking are his hamstring, foot, shoes, and his will to get in shape.

    @KevanMajere33 2 роки тому +1

    Start at 9.40. Slow mo to 0.25x. Watch how easily he dunks. I honestly thinks he can jump his entire head above the rim if he trains and gain enough mass and strength.

  • @Jayson_Tatum
    @Jayson_Tatum 2 роки тому

    Once he adds some weight, he's gonna be even more lethal. Just like how Giannis became even better after putting on mass, except Wem already can shoot, whereas Giannis had to develop his shooting.

  • @iMacxXuserXx485
    @iMacxXuserXx485 2 роки тому +5

    Wonderful video! So much good analysis. Víctor has so much potential. Do you think he could one day build muscle and be as strong as Giannis or Gobert? Do you think he's too flimsy to be a rim protector?

    • @Byronic19134
      @Byronic19134 2 роки тому +2

      He should def be able to fill out like Gobert did, maybe not Giannis that dude filled out like his entire bone structure seemingly changed as well, but Gobert also took til he was like 25. I think he should aim for a Gobert, Pelicans AD type of build. And hell be a rim protector from day one just from his length alone like AD was but unlike AD i actually think his best position may be on the wing.

    • @Shamanteng
      @Shamanteng 2 роки тому

      Of course - all "skiny" or lean guys will get buff up after few seasons. I mean look at LeBron in his first 2 seasons : he was kinda thin. Then he built mass and looked the same ever since.

    I had a chance to stand and listen to MJ and Dr J chat one day before MJ had won an NBA title. I had been near NBA players before and it was obvious MJ just seemed to have a normal way of moving that other NBA players didn't, just fluid and not gawky for a tall man. This kid is the same but much bigger. I don't think he is going to be at the same physical risk as other brittle huge dudes. He moves like a normal man.

  • @AchillesxHeal

    Yes, he's tall, yes he's mobile, yes he can run the floor, yes, he can dribble but for those that know basketball, Ralph Sampson at 7'4" was doing all that from the 80's until he starting getting injuries.....the difference is that back in the 80's if you were a big your place was in the paint, so yes everything he's doing has been done before, but I will admit he's doing it a lil better and if he stays healthy, the young man could be listed as one of the best bigs' to play the game
