patrick mahomes and sga are more comparable
but making wemby the face of the league (with his current antics) is like making draymond green the face of the league
being gifted isn’t the problem
Adam Best@Arrowhead_Adam
Hearing a bunch of podcasts talk about a large portion of sports fans turning on Victor Wembanyama. Look, as someone who’s watched every second of Mahomes for almost a decade, and the public fallout, this was inevitable. Someone that gifted takes a sport by storm and announces themselves as the new face of the league, modern society is gonna turn on that level of success every single time. It’s who we are. This is the era of haters. Misery loves company. We’re better at tearing down than we are at building up, unfortunately. This is especially true about the noise on social media. People are 10 times more likely to complain than give credit.

@gReenbean_26 @rclypoly Happened faster because of the hype he came with and the fact that he became the face of the league relatively quickly. It’s almost identical to LeBron
English
@rclypoly the same loop applies for like every star really everyone loves them on the rise then eventually people slowly turn against them, in wembys case it just happened so fast
English
unfortunately the consequence of 22 yo wemby being the face of a contending franchise and in the spotlight is that he’s gonna gain an infinite amount of haters
Smiley@30GotNext
Niggas did a full 180 switch on Wemby LMAO
English
@DamienPetersNBA No it’s not. This app isnt real life. And every one of those type of tweets is either a Knicks fan or Okc fan
English
Wemby’s PR is on life support right now.
Ross Barkan@RossBarkan
He'll never be an actual face of the NBA because he's deeply unlikeable. Kobe, LeBron, Jordan, and others could be tough personalities, bitter at times, but Wemby has, absolutely, the worst sportsmanship of any major player I've seen. Dirty and nasty player.
English
@KDotViewz Some people think wemby is soft, so let’s add an even softer big next to him. I’m good
English
Wemby wants to run the 4 spot, that’s the sentiment he has expressed and Jarrett Allen has been talked about amongst the Spurs brass
English
@WembyCentral It’s funny because if they would have lost before the finals. No one would be saying they’ll never get there
English
I said this before but I’m really not worried about the future of the Spurs. I have no doubts they’ll be back next year and the year after that. I think the 2026 Spurs have maybe the brightest future an NBA team has ever had.
This is just such an annoying, avoidable stain.
English
@ash4nd1021 If he’s back on first take full time. We might have another skip v LeBron situation on tv all over again.
English
Victim Wembanyama might be his best ever
Skip Bayless@RealSkipBayless
CONGRATS, NY! JALEN BRUNSON: Best Player in the NBA! WEMBY: Exposed!
English
So many people of victim of the moment…
D Fox didn’t play his best ball. But let’s not forget he was Clutch player of the year.
Victor is the face of the Spurs. No disrespect to anyone on the team.
He receives different defenses and whistles
Continue…

Victor Wembanyama immediately after the loss:
"This is the biggest learning moment of my life."
English
I don’t want to hear about no fuckin Wemby excursions this offseason. All the help and training he needs is already in the building. Tim, David, and Pop is worth wayyyyy more than some fuckin ninjas, underachiever Olajuwon, and backpack nutcase KG
English
@AndrewDBailey Jokic fans saying this is hilarious after what he just did against a undermanned Timberwolves team. We just watched jokic’s defense literally make Jaden McDaniels and ayo look like KD and kyrie.
English
I've seen a few people claiming Victor Wembanyama is the best player in the world in the wake of the Finals (I suppose that boosts a Knicks championship that doesn't need any boosting), but I don't know how you emerge from that series with that take. Top 3 or 4, sure. But best?
Wemby showed way too many weaknesses on offense (the more important half of basketball) to own that distinction.
English
@aiceberg23 @i_zzzzzz That’s great keep learning. And the next time a room full of cameras and reports are asking you questions with millions watching make sure to think about how every single word can be lost in translation
English
He’s not being rude, he’s simply using what he thinks is the English version of the poetic French term “À jamais”
SNY Knicks@sny_knicks
Victor Wembanyama at the end of his press conference: "Appreciate y'all. See you... never"😭
English
@MateoSays @i_zzzzzz He’s saying it to a bunch of American reporters obviously he’s not gonna say it in French
English
@i_zzzzzz You know, in America, we are always taught to respect and try to learn other people's culture, which I think is a good thing. However, people who move here have to do the same. If we believe he is not being rude (which I think he is, the track record is there)
English
Can’t even joke around after losing the finals without everyone getting on his ass
Hoop Central@TheHoopCentral
“Appreciate y’all. See y’all…never.” — Wemby at the end of his post-game press conference. (h/t @big_business_)
English
@ClosetNatashas @BronGotGame Yeah is that why Tom Brady himself has walked off multiple times without shaking the other QBs hands?
English
@_lm277 @BronGotGame Hockey. A real man's sport. Football they all greet each other peopel heading locker room
English
Wemby of course walks off the court and doesn’t shake hands, very bad look
English
just adding fuel to the slander this guy never makes it easy
Underdog NBA@UnderdogNBA
Wemby signs off his NBA Finals media responsibilities: "Appreciate ya'll. See ya'll ...... never."
English
@fireveach @hcf_m2h It’s a direct translation that’s being taken out of context
Brooks Otterlake@i_zzzzzz
He’s not being rude, he’s simply using what he thinks is the English version of the poetic French term “À jamais”

He’s 22 years old but maturity wise he isn’t

@whatsontapnba It’s funny I’m only seeing these tweets from wolves, Okc and Knicks fans. Funny how that works
