First 3 seasons (22-24 yrs old) he played 72, 82, and 80 games. Which means he was sturdier and structurally better than someone like Embiid.

I just hate how we used him on offense; he was a finesse player that we tried to make into a physical, back-to-the-basket guy. It's why i say keep Wemby in the mid-range (that KG, Dirk, Shai ish) or catching lobs but he don't need to be trying to methodically bang in the paint. Especially back then where we had too many clumsy idiots falling down in the paint area.

And still couldn’t beat the Black man overall

He was to too big and strong to not use that to his advantage.

He was too skinny for that to be a good long term idea... and surprise surprise it wasn't a good idea

He was more like Dirk, excellent jump shooting big who could post up. Doesn't mean you restrict him to that. Yet we had him playing like it was game 7 grind it out mode in December, bc our coach was elite defensively but incompetent offensively.

Yeah I thought this was well known but it was kinda like that movie Twins with Arnold

They literally bred him to be build into an nba player
