And you'll see Wemby take a contested three in a moment, or a heat-checked kind of turnaround, and that opens the door going the other way a little bit.
And Ant did the same thing all the time.
You could always tell, this one's going up for three.
A step-back three is coming because he senses that moment.
And I think in Game 1...
Wemby sort of punched himself out early because he wanted to just absolutely dominate the game, and he didn't have quite enough gas in the fourth quarter.
I wonder if coming into Game 5, he is going to be so motivated to atone for what happened in Game 4 that maybe he's almost too amped up.
That's really the only hope that the Wolves have because if he's locked in and just ready to play, I mean, he's an—
absolute monster that i don't know that anyone can do anything with and so uh if he's under control it's hard to see the wolves figuring a way out of this if he is just sort of caught up in the emotion of it and wanting to deliver a statement and is a little too wild then maybe that that that uh kind of opens the door for the wolves to to make a move and steal this thing
Yeah, let's start with the Shea part.
I mean, it's a history-making week in the NBA in a lot of ways, and this was an untouchable record until suddenly it wasn't.
And I think I was left kind of thinking about what are the things that Shea does better at this point than anybody else in the world.
I think we've gotten used to just saying, oh, he's the best one-on-one scorer, but within that...
Obviously, the best mid-range shooter in the game right now, the best driver in the game right now, the best crunch time score increasingly is apparent.
But he also has the best body control of anyone in the league, also has like the best change of pace of anybody in the league.
I think the ways in which he's becoming unimpeachable in all of those different respects.
Yeah, they feed off of each other, but just like it's the portrait of an all-time player.
like being drawn in real time and being able to see that in this kind of fashion with that sort of consistency.
I mean, it's a fucking privilege.
Let's just call it what it is.
