drop coverage good now
I guess he’s back on his meds. Lauding Wemby’s drop coverage after ripping Pop last week for running…checks notes…drop coverage with Wemby.![]()
yeah i mean, drop coverage isn't "bad" its a question of whether you have the personnel for it.
i've noticed quite a bit in recent games that collins has regularly been hedging hard on screens, whereas wemby typically drops. asking collins to play drop is pretty dumb. you need someone with legit length and timing. milwaukee ran it a lot with brook lopez to great success as well.
going away from Collins playing drop is the main reason our defense is better. Wemby can always play drop because of his length.
victor is in a very weird spot, in that he is so tall that many blocks can be classified as steals
I thought last season that they missed a cple blocks but actually preventing a block is indeed a steal (at 8' high) even if it looks like a bock.
I’ve seen enough of this season to say that Wemby’s game has regressed offensively.
I don’t know who decided to have him shoot 3s like he’s Dame or Steph but that’s not who he is or will ever be.
Meanwhile his attempts to play on the elbow or in the post look worse than ever.
He doesn’t seem to know where to be in the floor.
His PnR game remains weak.
His added weight seems to have slowed him down without gaining anything inside.
He’s building absolutely horrible habits and I don’t see a primary playmaker emerging.
His ceiling remains as high as anyone in the league but he desperately needs some hard coaching.
Part of it is also the way the Spurs run their offence. When you look at the shot chart, 45% of Wemby's FGs are threes! 7'4" and almost half of them are threes, but that really isn't that much of an anomaly on the Spurs, Collins is at 44%, Mamu at 50%. The Spurs seems to like their bigs shooting these threes at a high rate.
The bigger problem is that Wemby is shooting 13% of his FGA from 16 to 3pt line, which is the least desirable spot. #2 on the team behind CP3 who is at 15%. The difference is that CP3 is nailing it at a 56% clip, while Wemby is at 29%.
Wemby is also shooting an anemic 27% from 3-10, but he is shooting 83% at the 0-3 range, and 71% at the 10-16 range (on very low attempts).
Which goes to the point, Wemby should either post up or do pick and rolls with CP3 all game long, those are shots he almost can't miss. He should also operate at the high elbows and shoot over those midgets guarding him (well, midgets by his standards). There is a rather clear path for Wemby to dominate on offence, his skills and physique is a cheat code, and he is making it way too easy for defence to stop him. Stop those stupid 3s with 21 seconds left on the shot clock, stop driving into the teeth of the defence and get the ball stripped.
Not surprisingly, Wemby is at 0.0 OWS right now, just break even, ranking 6th on the team. And even less surprisingly, the one leading the Spurs in OWS is Chris Paul and Harrison Barnes. We need these vets to show the kids how to play smart, winning basketball. So Wemby,get over yourself and learn from these vets.
According to CP3, Pop told him to get Wemby the ball when he's facing the basket, and not on post ups.
And Wemby surely wouldn't be chucking a dozen 3pts if he wasn't instructed to do so.
His decision making obviously has to be better, but Wemby isn't a player who would go against the coach's wishes.
They obivously see something we don't, we'll see how things develop.
Worst case scenario, we get another top5 pick.
It’s easier to show a young player what not to do, let them learn, than to just tell them. We’re neither contenders or a playoff team. Dropping some games this year won’t matter.
"shooting 3s is part of my game and I will keep shooting and I will make them"
maybe his bbiq isn't very high
look at his first three of the game
he turned towards the stands and it reminds me of that Nick Young moment
he already has a reduced number of free throws
is it possible to be high effecient first option with 4 free throws per game?
Pfffttt. He'll be fine. Not worried one bit.
Man up, you pusillanimous lads.
He’s very soft right now. He’s shooting terribly and has no post moves or physicality whatsoever. He makes sochan look like prime Kevin McHale
He doesn’t need physicality or post moves. This isn’t 2003. He just needs to be more active, at the very least move without the ball and put pressure in the paint.
Frenchfred and Bruno (or any other french posters), can you hear the name of the french prospect the last french journalist ask Wemby about?
thx
Of course he will
Not a huge fan of is apparent satisfaction with his production tho
I'd have prefered to see him pissed tbh
he has quick spin, one dribble spin, face up, step through, drop step, fade away
Someday you guys will get over the fact that wemby is a perimeter player and that’s that….
They're talking about Maxime Raynaud who is currently playing in NCAA for Stanford.
KD, Shai and Kawhi are also perimeter players and they shoot a lot from midrange instead of throwing another brick form the logo every game
You're a ing re
