We had to watch a lot of bad basketball in order to prepare for the other end of this podcast.

Uh, but then all of a sudden you, you like pick up the box score or people are texting you.

He has a real like group chat MVP, small G, small C, not our group chat.

Of course, like you and your friends group chat.

You're like, you see what Wemby did?

Yeah.

The craziest thing, if you didn't watch the full game, I would go back and just pull up the highlight package because the first one of the reel that I saw was just like blow your wig back, like something that you just can't see elsewhere, which is that he catches it on the perimeter.

I believe Pajemski is trying to attempt to close out and Wemby does like the jab in the different direction, gets by him quickly, almost as if he is a 6'6 wing player and

And then gets in like drives to the basket on the left side.

He's dribbling with his left is suspended in midair, switches hands and then drills.

It gets an and one off of that.

And I'm just like, this guy is seven four.

He's literally one of the biggest players, not only in the league, but that we've seen play in the league.

And he's just doing things as if he had the mobility and athleticism of something like Steph.

And so I'm just like, he just, every single game, it's something I've never seen before.

And I have to imagine like, if we're talking about the big picture discussion about the league, about like, oh man, tanking, this is going wrong.

That is going wrong.

At the very least we have this.

And I wonder if, if like he is our shining beacon of hope of like, if people want to turn this thing around, like this might be the guy, if anything, it has to be the guy probably.

I want to get to that later because the France lineup, like who he's going to be playing with and like the types of player is actually pretty fascinating.
