Is it Me? Or did the Wemby Hype & Novelty Come & Go Already

I think people underestimate when they hear "best players in the world". Like these guys are simply that good at what they do. Dude is finding that out right now it ain't going to be simply handed over to him just because he's taller than everyone else.

What makes these players special at what they do is they made adjustments at every level. Now it's time for the kid to prove it as well or be another "could've been" story.

How isn't someone who never played a single nba minute not a rookie tf

Access to NBA training/strength and conditioning goes a long way, just look at his body now compared to what it was in 2021-22. You're out of your mind if you think he would've been putting up these same numbers as a raw rookie.

Considering he had a foot injury and was immobile much of the year he lost out on an whole offseason worth of training/conditioning. As an nba team you'd rather your player have zero foot injuries. He was taking standstill shots until like late march

I mean, the spurs are trash atm.

What does tanking has to do with him under performing?

He's not underperforming.

The team is just ass.

19 points, 9.7 rebounds. 2.5 assists. 1.3 steals, and 2.6 blocks for a team where he's not even the main focus of the offense is not bad.

43% FG can 100% be better though.

At 19. These guys are crazy.

shyt is goofy. You got Vassel, Sochan, and even Keldon Johnson being more of an offensive focus than Wemby

Surprised he's putting up the numbers he is.

At least he has a dog attitude. Thought he was gonna be one of those passive talented cats.

He's gonna be alright, but they need to make him the focus and have everyone play off of him instead of vice versa right now.

took a rec league team to the playoffs his rookie year with as his coach

About the last time The Kings made the playoffs before stepped in

Spurs needed CP3 on that team...a real point would help him immensely and feed him constantly.

 

[tremonthustler1]

in terms of finding a superstar talent, sure. but the spurs don't need that

if they're looking for a PG, he's already on the roster. They just don't use him.

Man I was rooting for that Kings team to win against Kobe, Bibby and the boys were fkn robbed by the refs in that series

 

[duncanthetall]

KAT had that nikka mostly locked up last night whenever his teammates did look for him. But the team around him, outside of Vassell, is underwhelming as hell.

 

[UpAndComing]

What does tanking has to do with him under performing?

People are too scared to walk back the "He'll be better than Jordan, Kareem, and Lebron" idiotic comments

So they have to make excuses

I was actually thinking the other day CP3 or even a dude like tj mcconnell would help tremendously

I was about to say that a 7 footer shooting under 50 percent from the field is ridiculous. Then I looked up Embiid's numbers for context and saw that he has shot under 50 percent for most of his career. SMH these dudes are big for nothing...
