He looked like a completely different player last night, offensively. Poise, control, strength. Everything he has needed was all there. Just utterly dominant, and against a very good defensive front court too. If this is truly who he is, the Spurs will be contenders very soon..

If that was who he truly is the Spurs are winning 65+ and ringing this year. There is not a team in the league that could have survived last night from Wemby.

It's crazy to think that in all likelihood this won't even be the best game we see from him this season. Dude really is an alien

Agreed. You can sense some headroom left, wemby is just getting started. I know he has reduced his 3pt attempts but they still look pretty good going up. If he starts hitting those in higher volume it's going to be some crazy numbers. At the same time, I figure Fox will eat into some of his share so he won't have to shoulder too much hopefully.
 
Well since we're starting the topic of censorship and limiting free speech Im gonna stop being silent about the constant use God, Jesus Christ, jfc, etc...all yall crying about defending a word that represents sinful life choice (or for the secular-perversion of law of nature) that winds people up in a bad place if they dont turn away while not defending blashpeming the name of God (2nd Commandment) ...its not even proper english...its a name, THE name...its not an expletive. Like the person who said its easily avoidable u could put kfc, geeze, gosh or any other random name as it makes no sense. So gonna defend one defend it all or be a hypocrite
Think I saw one of u virtue signalers use term jeebotards not long after crying like a woman about the use of said word...pot meet kettle
Yall want absence of religion that should include offending faith/religion cause realize it or not you're using it n it will be accounted for

No one is starting this topic the topic of censorship or limiting free speech.

I'll refer you to our Community Ground Rules: https://baselinebums.com/threads/forum-behaviour-ground-rules.119/#post-8368

Thanks for stopping by.

I’d buy Wemby grew he’s got to be at least 7’-4.449” as he dunks without really jumping now.

Dallas officially measured Lively at 7’3”, having grown 2”. Having seen Victor matching up with him, take that for what you will, but Victor isn’t 7’4”, not even 7’5”. I’m starting to believe the rumblings that he could be 7’6” or 7’7”.

There’s a thread outlining what is and isn’t acceptable. Your personal preferences don’t enter into the equation, either way.

It’s also not a first amendment issue,because the government didn’t put you in jail. That’s what the 1A is, protection from the government. This is a space set up and managed by private citizens who are free to implement speech limitations.

You will either decided that the rules are ones you can live with, or not, but your screed won’t change them. You know where the Wild West forum is. If your preference is shit posting in a slow, ghost town forum with a two page game thread on opening night, knock yourself out. We’re here to talk Spurs Hoops.

There's like 2 words you can't use, which you can't use in most other forums (basketball or otherwise) and you wouldn't say face to face to a stranger if you didn't want to risk getting smacked in the face. Jeez.

I mean sure, he doesn't have to jump as high as a guard, but what are the commentators and other people watching? He gets higher than Jokic or TD did on a lot of his dunks and people hardly ever mentioned them not jumping very high. On that reverse ally oop, he did jump quite high to catch and reverse it. Why are people always banging on about him not jumping when dunking. He is getting up there a bit on some of his dunks.

nobody is questioning his athleticism ... but I remember that put back dunk from the preseason where it looks like you hardly can put a newspaper under his feet

Show me proven, testable, falsifiable evidence for any existence of any god.

You can't. It doesn't exist. It's a belief you and many others have without any shred of evidence whatsoever.

Yet you are here demanding respect for your fabricated beliefs while simultaneously insulting a group of people that exist in our population.

That's shameful. Be better.

It's not the issue of he can't jump that's intriguing. It's that he doesn't have to most of the time. That's something new we just don't see anywhere else.

Guys, let’s move on and talk hoops. This will only spiral into a back and forth, adding no value to the forum. Thanks!

Also he only played 30 minutes. What would his statline have looked like with 40?

That and the 0 turnovers are the most impressive aspect to me.

We can’t even keep Fox for 4 years. Wemby starts getting paid in 20 months, likely at 30% of the cap. Our two young guards follow in 12 month intervals. The best thing would be to get a better option than Barnes on a less than MLE deal for 3 years. Even then,if CB develops,he gets paid at the same time as Harper.

You can’t count can you? Last time that I checked Harper and Bryant are on rookie deals for 4 years, which means we can in fact keep Fox for 4 years. And for those 4 years we need a starting PF because we still got enough money. Olynyk and Barnes make 32 million combined. We just can’t afford a Lauri Markkanen, but a 20-30 million dollar guy fits into our cap without a problem

Just look at Scott’s cap and trade asset thread. In three years, Wemby, Fox, and Castle will all be getting paid, and Harper will be on deck. You want to trade Fox before you get in the crunch, and teams know you need to.
 
^We're winning the chip within this timeframe, and everyone will be taking a discount to stick together. It has been written.

What about prior to Harper market value deal, Fox extends for less per year to stay with Spurs?
