The Official NBA Season Thread: Season Starts Now

[Maximus Meridius]

Shaq wasn't hitting 3s or free throws

So he gon avg more than Jokic did last year?

I'm just putting it in perspective.

It took Embiid 3 years to hit 25 a game.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

wait. If Wemby averages less than 25ppg, I win $150?

Yup. Rounding up at 24.5 just for you

[ill steelo]

Shaq ain't even avg 25 as a rookie

96 possessions a game. 60% free throw shooter

The league avg last year was 99. Not that different.

Ya'll setting the bar real high for this kid out the gate. So basically ya'll saying he gon be at least 50/38/80%??

 

[HIM]

I have Webmy at around 24.3-24.8

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Vic is one of them. I think it's ok to expect greatness from the jump. He has physical advantages over the entire league. I actually expect him to hit closer to 30 but I'm not betting on it

 

[ballinsam23]

I think he'll be the best player in the league within 3 years, but not out the gate.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Wemby still ODing on that Kobe system.

too many tough shots to average 25 as a rookie.
Especially on the Spurs, I don't think Pop is gunna let him jack like that.

 

[ballinsam23]

I think Pop will let him. He usually makes the right pass too. Plus the mid range is already there so you know he gonna be great.

Hes real close to the way a young KG used to play.

I don’t think Wemby will get to 25 PPG because, due to the marathon nature of the NBA season, he’s going to have a stretch of games or two when his production drops off because he’s just plain tired.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Who do yall think has him leaking out instead of crashing the glass?

Sheesh

 

[Coupé It]

BIG LEEMELONE is the house.

 

[Coupé It]

I don’t even gamble like that but even I put something up on FD when I heard Vic was +2500 to lead the league in Blocks..

But the number changed to +700 after Friday night

Still bet it. Great value.

I even bet he’d win DPOY because that was like +1500. F it.

Why not? Who's embiid?

This is why I wanted Wemby in San Antonio. He's going to have a long runway on offense. Pop said he's just teaching Wemby defense.

 

[Platinum State]

Wembananas not averaging >25 thats for sure

 

[pdino]

I'll take Wemby < 25ppg if that's still up
