Is Wemby...
I mean, there's the injury potential with him.
That's the only thing that scares me.
With good reason.
But I think he's in the area of MJ, LeBron, young LeBron, young Duncan, young Hakeem.
I have no problem including him in this conversation.
Ethan Jensen has a Wemby question.
My dream for the NBA is to turn Wemby into a villain.
I think he's the perfect future villain.
He's cocky, empowered, and French.
I'd like to start sooner than later.
I'm a jazz fan, but we'd love to everyone start hating Wemby and then we need Anthony Edwards to defeat him.
It's the most fun outcome for NBA fandom next 10 years.
Villain Wemby.
Who?
I know.
Maybe he wrote that under an assumed name.
I was thinking the WWE, this happened in the mid 90s when they were trying to make Bret Hart a good guy for a while.
And the fans weren't really responding.
And then they leaned into like, all right, we'll make him in the Hart Foundation villains.
