NBA needs a proper injured reserve tbh

dont need Bassey on every injury report

[onechance87]

would like to see barlow show something especially on defence and rebounding

[John B]

Grizz currently at 6th place and the Raptors at 7th, about 3 games separate the two. If anything, it’s a motivation to beat the Grizz to help convey the TOR pick

Wemby needs to stay in the paint and deter Ja going in every time. Somebody else has to chase Jared around shooting 3, Barlow? Sochan is too short, Jared will just shoot over him

[John B]

I can’t wait for Wemby to block some of those Ja trips to the rim and deter him the rest of the night

[Pauleta14]

AGAIN I'm hoping to see the team leave Wemby take care of the rim and not over help / leave open 3s

as vain as ja is, you know he's hoping to poster Victor.

Bet on it. I'd be really surprised if he wasn't going out of his way to attempt multiple posters on Wemby.

Good. Wemby will be collecting block stats

Seriously we need a long-term category and a recent issue category good call

Wemby having a block party early

On cue

[spurraider21]

offense looks disjointed without a ball handler

recurring theme

couple of lobs to wemby though. one drew a foul, one was a dunk

[NASpurs]

Anyone else hear that heckler through the TV?

"Wemby you're not going to make it"

[spurraider21]

3 lobs to wemby now

2 for dunks, 1 drew a foul

[John B]

Griz fan heckling Jeremy at the ft

[spurraider21]

jesus christ jeremy

drives into all the traffic on offense instead of open space, then fouls morant for 3. luckily refs didnt call it a shooting foul

[LeBowen]

If not for Wemby, this would be the worst team in the history of the league.
Carrying them to 15 wins would be a monumental feat.

[John B]

Lob party

[John B]

Does Sochan has small hands? Always losing the ball

[InRareForm]

What's sochans fg % on those ugly fadeaways he does

[NASpurs]

How long before they start leaving Memphis open for 3s

[Pauleta14]

Sochan and Vassel ARE NOT Wemby compatible

trade them asap
