Isiah Thomas: "In a game to win a championship... do you want to compete against SGA or Wemby?" Boogie Cousins: "I can dominate SGA." @ChandlerParsons: "I'd rather not face Wemby." Lou Williams: "I'd much rather play SGA." 😱🏆 @MichelleDBeadle | @boogiecousins | @TeamLou23

"The second-best defensive player is miles away from Victor Wembanyama. ... Is he already the most dominant defensive player that we have ever seen in the NBA?" —@BannedMacMahon on the debate around Victor Wembanyama 🍿

@bigdogpistons1 @KuKhahil @copie_je Nigga Amen has never made more than 2 threes in a game, and he talking about "less ass" 😂😂😂

@KuKhahil @copie_je Amen has never come close to that “hot streak” tho.

What is the basketball argument for Stephon Castle being a better player than Amen Thompson??

@NBA__Courtside Again, Nick Wright can't stop lying lol, Wemby said that there is a debate right now, but WANTS to make sure at the end there is none anymore.

Nick Wright thinks it’s interesting the media isn’t criticizing Wemby for campaigning his MVP case when they usually always do when a player talks that way about himself: “Most in the media hate stuff like that… Typically a 22 year old who’s never won anything explaining to everyone how he’s the best player and not why his team is the best, but why he is the best. Typically the media scolds that. Not with this guy who since he’s came in the league has been telling us how the spurs play basketball the right way. The is characteristics of Wemby’s overwhelming arrogance that most of the media tends to scold in athletes but with the 22 year old french kid, everybody applauds it” (Via @LeBatardShow)

@Marvingvng @WarriorsLens @Underdog @UnderdogNBA They are, especially the Spurs GM and front office. So in a redraft, the Spurs would take Harper 100 times out of 100

@RuubenYb @WarriorsLens @Underdog @UnderdogNBA Bro every GM is the league is takin VJ over Harper right now stop being delusional

2025 NBA Lottery Redraft

@Marvingvng @WarriorsLens @Underdog @UnderdogNBA Dawg a redraft means you are taking that player FOR THE FUTURE. Cool Kon and VJ have better stats rn but everyone knows that Harper is going to be better 2-3 years down the line

@WarriorsLens @Underdog @UnderdogNBA That’s not our problem we can’t put him above players like Flagg VJ and Kon right now

WATCH YOUR FUCKING HEAD OH MY FUCK

@KuKhahil Clearly better offensively and not to much worse on the defensive end

@DJ_B_RADICAL @Wemby_Muse Wdym with this year he had a blast lol?

@Wemby_Muse He said that rookie year and then this last year he had a blast.

@dllthinawa @Ball4Breakfast @PolymarketHoops It’s actually insane how they had one of the biggest if not the biggest play offs risers in NBA history and decided to not invest more into the team.

They got drunk off that 23 Cinderella run. Hell, let’s say it wasn’t a Cinderella run and they were a team with a 50+ win record. Do you really want to be a sacrificial lamb to whomever comes out of the west or do you want to win it all? That wasn’t happening without another superstar. The FO dropped the ball big time there

Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo reportedly had a rift due to Butler’s desire to leave the team. Jimmy felt the team and front office aren’t actively competing for championships. Now, Bam seems frustrated with the lack of direction. If Bam asks out, Miami risks losing both stars in two seasons 😬

@NBA__Courtside Even though I don’t like the expectation argument I do think if you use that logic to parade Brown being the MVP then by your own logic it should be Wemby

Paul Pierce on Victor Wembanyama case for winning MVP: “His impact on winning as compared to the other guys, I mean, it’s tough to deny. Defensively, offensively and this is what I go by like, what was expectations for OKC coming into the season. Oh, they will probably have the best record Shai will average 30. Like, even before we saw them play this year that’s what we would have said. I didn’t see San Antonio being a second seed. I had them probably being a play-in team in the west. Like, so their room from floor to the ceiling was a lot steeper than OKC was. So, I think you got to put that into play.” (Via @NFGShow)

@Ball4Breakfast @PolymarketHoops Dawg did you forget Jimmy dragged the Heat to the finals 2 times ? He is the definition of doing the most with the least. What’s crazy is seeing your star player do all that and still not invest more.

@PolymarketHoops Jimmy was right, but you have to work with what you got. The Captain can’t be saying that. He needs to say, this is what we have. Let’s go!

@Vz4OSU @vibzx00 @nylaabell Yk that nigga don’t think that. Shai said he doesn’t care about his 20pt game streak and a few nights later stayed in the 4th up 14 to get to 20 points after he was dogshit all night long. I don’t understand why ppl believe that the most competitive ppl don’t care abt accolades

@vibzx00 @nylaabell Here’s the real answer…

Love Wemby but him begging for the MVP is such a bad look. Generational superstars don’t get handed contenders by year 3, but he did. He will win plenty of awards in this league, but campaigning for it in year 3 is crazy work idc

Do not underestimate how Wemby’s offensive gravity changes the game

@CastleFor3 @stfukhi No need to hate twin, Amen a really good talent. Let’s hope he realizes that the Rockets will waste his potential and he joins us

@stfukhi stop gimmick

He’s touching a All Star team within the next 3 years I promise y’all

he was in the air for a minute LMAOOO goodness man

@DRPKING96 @LazFPS1 @NBA__Courtside It's alr buddy, Wemby just giving them other niggas a lil head start

@RuubenYb @LazFPS1 @NBA__Courtside ya he not winning lil bro

Brian Scalebrine says Wemby is his MVP this year: "Ever since I watched Wemby live, he is the most impactful player I have ever seen... Historically the MVP has always been the greatest on/off. When it was Jokic he won MVP, last year it was SGA. When he's on the floor one of the best in the NBA and when he is off the Spurs are like a lottery team. Wemby leads the league in on/off. Also, he is 4-1 against SGA"

@DRPKING96 @LazFPS1 @NBA__Courtside Cool he was wrong about 4-1 right about the rest

@LazFPS1 @NBA__Courtside yes but he still is wrong. How can you not get simple fact right. Takes 2 secs to look at

@pie_1414 @LegendOfWinning Thats a very convenient cuttoff lol, it so happened that just 11 years ago Steph won the MVP scoring 23 points...

@LegendOfWinning stop it, 24ppg is not gonna cut to be legit mvp. no one with less 25 has won it in the last 10yrs. The league avg ppg for teams has went up from 102 to 113-115 since then. anybody scoring below 27 shouldn’t even be in the convo tbh

Man I hate this overreacting/oversimplifying stance of the MVP race because it is clear that many of these "analysts" have only started watching "carefully" over the last month Reducing Wemby's offensive impact to just points and assists is lazy and misses the real value of Wemby

@LukeMichael3232 @KevinOConnor @DannyParkins Right now he is definitely used as a PG and runs the offense a lot (for some fans even too much) but I think it’s the spurs developing his offensive skills. I think those reps will be amazing for when they try to scheme against Harper in future playoffs runs with the 2 together

@KevinOConnor @DannyParkins Castle isn’t a point guard. Spurs need their point guard. Wemby needs a Robin. I don’t mind the question, I just think Dylan has shown enough and the Spurs had played well enough, that it was the right pick

Am I crazy for saying Kon Knueppel over Dylan Harper in a Spurs re-draft? “Yes. I think that’s crazy.”—@DannyParkins
