Is Wemby overrated?

Compared to last year

Compared to last year

Just not impressive. I also don't think he is that great of a defender unless you are big stats guy and only care about blocked shots

He just isn't doing it for me yet and would be better off playing closer to the basket

I’d prefer the next century

Just so hard to judge at this point. He is being asked to do so much because they are bad.

Only 2 teams in the East over .500 (obviously early)

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Damn.

11 teams in the EC are under .500.....while there are only 4 below the even mark in the WC.

But it's just week 3.
Long way to go yet.

Year 2 regression but really for being so tall and lanky he didn't shoot great last season and this year he is shooting awful. Taking too many 3's. I get developing your shot but 7 a game at 23% is just stubborn imo. Still extremely young but Pop needs to whip him in shape. I guess he is just letting him figure things out. His defense is very good though

It comes down to Wemby getting stronger. He is built like Giannis except more skinny and more lanky. Giannis wasn't the prospect Wemby was so it took him to about year 3 or year 4 to make that big jump. I think Wemby is just too weak so he is settling for shots. This isn't international ball anymore kid.

I try to ask myself how he would look if he and Chet reversed teams. Chet can excel because he can be Chet on the defensive end and just let the offense come to him. Wemby doesn’t have that luxury but I think it’s time for a coach to step in and give him a little more of that.

They’re gonna have some serious assets going forward so they can get him help

Vessel and keldon are role players

They need more creation

Yeah like I said the eye test says Pop is just letting him play. Maybe he is doing that so they can tank but I doubt it lol. He needs to improve all parts of his game and stop shooting so many 3's. Chet already had a better jumpshot and more game. Not sure either is a #1 right now but Chet would be more set up for it right now. Wemby has the skills to become that guy but not now and he needs to be coached up. They will continue to be bad. CP3 and Barnes are veterans but nothing special at this point
