I give you that, but Shaq can hold his position for a full shotclock. He is not dependent on 4 chris pauls.
I don't see it. Giannis was always a perimeter player, he played there since he was a kid. He has always had perimeter player handles. Wemby has always been a bigman. He has good handles for a bigman, not for a full-time perimeter player.

seems like there was a fairly dependent player named Shaq who went to get a le with a couple of teams. I suppose that it could have just been Kobe and Wade that were responsible for those though.
He can't play much inside when he is pushed off by likes of Fox
Dude is super weak what I have been saying. He might act tough but without actual strength he willbe unable to stabilize positions inside
He may not be strong but he definitely deters players from even trying shots at the rim when he's around
Unlike Collins who gets eaten alive and there's zero fear of him doing anything. He gets manhandled and treated like trash so he acts out and yet no opponent cares about his antics
This team would be better off with Collins or better yet Barlow hanging out as the help guy on the perimeter where maybe their length will do some good. Because Collins at the rim is a disaster.
Teams usually can dictate where they want the opposition to be on the court.
wemby can't even made 10feet jumper
Butter smooth, tbh.
A fine pair of accountants.
He’s starting at center today.
sochan, branham, Vassell, keldon, wemby starting
Step in the right direction![]()
Just had to start tre instead of branham…
Can't expect too much from Pop sadly
We're getting closer.
Immediately makes history.![]()
3 games as a center and the difference is night and day. He looks like a veteran that plays with a purpose and knows what to do out there, instead of a kid on a playground trying to figure things out. The best thing is that playing as a center doesn't take away from the rest of his game, he can still shoot 3's, bring the ball up and create off the dribble. He's just doing it more efficiently and at his own pace now.

Good call by OP but he’s still Argentinian sadly

It’s not hard, is it?
Great video explaining how Wemby improved with his move to center.
Thinking having Wemby doing crossovers in the perimeter and shooting tough fadeaways was the way to go.![]()
gotta give DAF86 his props on this one
also, the simulation is real
this video also came out within the last day... near identical le
i mean it's always been a case of his endurance and whether he can be a full time center. He could hit a new rookie wall or become fatigued. If wemby is this good and won't fade then all power to him. But it was a known question in the off season whether he'd stand up to the grind.
one of the easier ways for him to help endurance wise, aside from just naturally growing into his body, is to make his jump shot a more consistent weapon. not having to dive toward the rim and soar for a dunk on every possession, or put some post moves, spin, hang before shooting, will help. if he can take a couple of possessions "off" while still being a scoring threat, would go a long way toward preserving him. right now, his jumper isnt good enough to support that.
another thought is that maybe his best usage will be high intensity bursts... so while im not suggesting staying at a 24-25 minute limit, maybe he should mostly be playing around 30-31 minutes where he can feel free to expend more energy and be active without worrying about getting gassed. jokic/embiid are very high usage guys that usually play around 33 minutes. OTOH anthony davis pushes 35-37 minutes per game most years
that does mean we need capable backups to hold the fort though. , lends credence to the idea of drafting Sarr, not necessarily with the intention of a 2-big lineup (didnt work with wemby at the 4, and sarr is less capable a perimeter player than he is), but to both keep them fresh and flying around, basically having one of them on the floor at all times
