Is it Me? Or did the Wemby Hype & Novelty Come & Go Already

[UpAndComing]

ESPN and Bleacher Report had be thinking he would ignite them to 60 wins right off. I was seeing them post these routine ass highlights but since he’s doing it at 7’4” it’s “ “ dude is looking like a more productive French Christian Wood. A 6’6” 230 guy is bodying him.

This is why the jury is still out on Wemby IMO

Summer League and the first 10 games of the season he was looking great because teams have not yet centered their defensive game plan against him

Teams already found 1 wrinkle. Put a Small Forward or a strong Guard on him to body him and be physical with him

Chet a year and half older and wemby been playing professional basketball for how long? So when one is 25 and the other is 27 we can say the same thing?

You’re underestimating being in a pro setting longer. Also having a top 5-7 player is huge

17 straight losses.

This man had a Good Morning America predraft special. They were getting him ready to be the face ASAP.

its crazy how literally nobody cares anymore.

As long as they are losing the hype won't be there, the same was true for your favorite..but when wemby gets the stats to take the ROY from Chet it will be deemed a success and the nba hype machine can build from there.

I forgot he was in the league

LeBron's first year they started 8-23... and LeBron was still one of the main topics of Sports all year.

Wemby's game is boring.. the novelty of him being 7'3 wore off fast.

its crazy how literally nobody cares anymore.

It's more crazy how people are pretending they didn't say that he will be just as good or better than Jordan, Kareem, and Lebron

 

[MoneyTron]

The hype is warranted. Guy is still doing ridiculous things and he's still a baby learning how to walk in NBA terms.

 

[UpAndComing]

Just saw him against the Celtics

I mean.... he's aight . He doesn't effect the game and it barely has any impact to make Spurs a winning team

 

[Osmar]

Right now he's not even the favorite for ROY because of Chet Holmgren

 

[NoMorePie]

You have this man starting with Justin champagn and malaki Graham crackers

 

[Stick Up Kid]

Dude legit became irrelevant. part of the NBA's problem. those "next guys" who were hyped up, fizzled out... Zion, Wemby.

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Wembly is gonna be a really good player but that “generational” stuff they pull should strictly be used for his size and nothing else. Dude plays like a French 7’5” Kyle Korver just shooting threes. They have zero rim protection when doing that.

Once again it proves that if they're not American they can never fit the market over here as a superstar. No matter how huge they may be in France or any other foreign country. Watch what happens if Cooper Flagg pans out and can dominate in the league. All that nba is dead talk will cease.
