He seemed to be in tip top form at the Olympics. How out of shape can a 20 year old with almost zero body fat get in 10 weeks?
There are still coaches thinking a player can get conditioning just by playing his sport. It is not the case. If they knew he had problem there plus he is weak. It should to be addressed. He got bit stronger but not enough. Being stronger also gives you more conditioning. But you have to do it.
It is early in the season and he might be getting into refreshing stadium but tbh I do agree- they did not did a good job in that departement/ conditioning/

I wonder if between Olympics and start of season he was told to rest more than a typical offseason to decrease his overall load over the Summer. Has no one in the media asked him about his training during that timeline?
I get it, but disagree. Start of a new season, new rhythm, new players. Not to mention Olympics over the Summer and he’s in a sop re slump of overthinking.
Everyone calm down, he will work through his cardio and mental in due time.
Listen to this man.
Is there a way to get the data on the distance covered by a player/game?
Maybe there's an answer there... (just wondering)
In any case it can't be just that, I'm not defending him, I think he's still a kid in many aspects despite his precocity in others, but he's being put in terrible situations by his coach and teammates and they dgaf seing how happy they were after the game.
add to that that we are playing at a significantly slower pace. Last years team was running up and down the court a lot more.
That's just not a causation at all.
Try to find a lond summary of the last game and watch it X2 speed, Wemby is all over the place, up and down the 3pt line on D all the time. it's a game plan to tire him up and makes everything he does difficult by opp coaches.
AND HE GETS ZERO HELP FROM HIS OWN TEAM(MATES)
But ST prefers ting on him
It's not the offense that tires him up, that part frustrates him.
It's the defense and opp coaches game plan to tire him up as much as possible that kills him.
They make him purposely go baseline/3pts line as much as possible
Ime or Billups yesterday didn't hide it. ST just chooses to ignore it
Boo in hoo
And they are making Harden go right
Those coaches of other teams have gameplans! OMG how dare they?
Grant frickin touched his jersey and Wemby fell.
Showing weakness instead of strength
wemby was flopping and he managed to get a t on grant out of it. he has already become CP III's Padawan.
Not sure why you think I'm defending him in any way bro...
I'm just stating facts and a huge difference with last season where teams where discovering him, they have the blue-print now, of course he needs to adapt.
If we're analysing and trying to understand why he seems to often out of breath or having less juice, it's kind of a rational explanation to me. Among others.
That action was so embarassing tbh
Either he flopped or tried a charge, either way a stupid decision
he didn't try a charge. i was about twenty yards away from it. grant kept shoving him before the inbounds pass. when he would lean back on grant, grant would pull the chair. then they got chippy with each other but grant started to pull on his shoulder. that's when he got teed up. the ref had already warned the both of them.
Oh u were a the game...
Did you have a good view of the bench? Any body-language or interraction you noticed?
Dude I was 2 feet away looking at the tv
Grant fouled him later when he pushed him of the area. On perimeter that was illegal contact.
But those two times Wemby just threw himself on the floor? wtf? weak ass flop.
I think the blue-print was kinda obvious from the get go. At least since they saw him not standing his ground and float behind 3pt lane.
Preach!
i was behind the basket, about ten rows back. the portland bench was closest to the side i was on. when this happened, it was on my side of the court so that is why i had such a good view and could hear the ref warning wemby and grant to cut it out.
i've seen plenty of games on tv and plenty in person. it's a whole different perspective up front and live, and in three dimensions. it also helps to hear the players, refs and coaches. i've also seen a lot of flops over the years.
Maybe he is starting to like American women.
It actually wasn’t a T, it was a foul before the inbounds, which is one FT, dead ball, and possession of the ball.
What pissed me off was that they essentially gave him two warnings before calling a painfully obvious foul.
10 rows back yhm
Everybody watching tv saw a ref telling them to cut it out
well if that’s the case, wait til he makes the playoffs and teams put a real game plan together. He gon ask for sub 3 minutes into the first quarter![]()
