Wemby's debut in Vegas tonight....O/U?

[samsncharge99]

I overall just think he's too skinny. Reminds me of Chet Holgrum who got season ending injury in pre season once he started playing with the big boys.

Wemby can't just chuck 3s all day in NBA and expect to be good. Defense much better and him being 7'3 he better be in the paint, but stronger players will be able to post up against him. He has to use his size for Block and rebounds.

Wemby isn’t going to sit outside and shoot 3’s all day. He will take catch and shoot ones off a screen but he will generally operate closer to the bucket

Doubt teams are going to post up on him though. NBA just doesn’t work that way anymore, and that just isn’t smart. Wemby will be a high impact defender right away.

He will probably gain 10-20 pounds or so, which is plenty. You have to be careful with that stuff

Sam scouting reports said you were too skinny to be the top car salesman in your area and look how you turned out.

I'm a rec league star, get outta here

 

[stormtrooper8]

tbh my handles are pretty bad though

I'm a shooter

 

[jjgold]

If he stays healthy he will gradually bulk up like all nba players do and be ok

Ohhhhh I beg to differ on this one JJ

I break ankles

Then we would form a nice duo

Once I get by by my man and pull your man and couple more off, I'll kick it out to you

In all fairness to Wemby, it was thought that Kevin Durant was too rail thin to succeed

Guy hasn't gained a pound and we know the rest of the story

Game is different now not much touching allowed and less banging inside so size & weight not as big a factor

Kevin Durant at 19 would‘ve scored 30 on that level of talent last night is the only difference.

Can't argue that, you are right

Durant shot 5/17 for 18 points, had 1 rebound, and 0 assists in his Summer League debut

Yes, I know we disagree on about everything in life in sports you name it. So why even talk to each other at this point waste of time.

Just pointing out the facts since it seems relevant to your claim

Point is no one should judge Wemby off last night. That’s just stupid

Durant has gained a little weight, but he did it the right way.

Wemby will do the same. He didn’t get drafted by Charlotte or Detroit…. he’s in one of the best organizations in professional sports

That's the dream

size doesn't matter in sales. I'm just outside top 100 right now, but having a strong month already, i'll be top 100 by next week. Ranked 105 now

NBA a cream puff league now. they aren't allowed to breath too hard on each other

It’s not the size of the salesman in the fight. It’s the fight in the salesman that matters…
