He's the cause for why the Spurs had a 120.5 offensive rating with him on the court this year.
Only one point behind SGA, by the way, at 121.5.
And so I lean Wemby slightly over SGA, who is amazing in his own right.
I just think with Wemby, he just shaped the court and morphed both the defensive end and the offensive end.
It's just we only ever talk about the defense, but he did it on offense as well.
I mean, Kevin Durant played 600 more minutes than both SGA and Jokic.
KD was number two in the league in minutes.
It's not like the difference is top 10 in minutes for SGA to 130 minutes for Wemby, which he was.
I know it's a difference.
I think it's a very fair argument, but I don't think the difference is so overwhelming that I'm leaning SGA.
That's not a swing factor for me.
SGA played 68 games in the season.
Wemby played 65, including the NBA Cup game.
I'm not going to fault SGA for sitting 26 fourth quarters this year because OKC was smoking everybody in part of it because of him.
And I'm also not going to blame Wemby for the same thing.
I think it's close in terms of the minutes, not this overwhelming factor in terms of swinging the vote one way or the other.
I think it's more what's tangible about
