Superstar Showdown
One of my favorite parts of this season was every NBA superstar lining up against Wemby to test him out. Durant took him out on fadeaways, Jokic floated sweet middies over him, Giannis used his slash and speed, and here is Harden using his feints and counters. I don’t know if it’s available, but a compilation of 23-24 superstars vs. Wemby would be a great video.
Simplicity at Its Best
So simple but so good.
Defense in Question
I think the NBA has Wemby’s defense figured out. Just have James Harden’s handles.
In Defense of Harden
People’s takes about Harden are not based on reality, man. Some of the years he’s been blamed for the most, their odds were total shit, and they smashed their over/under because of his individual greatness and pretty much nothing else – normally overachieving gets rewarded with praise, but something about people’s desire to criticize this man in the history books… sheesh.
