Impressive, but those cats wearing those stupid numbers, I don't get it. One thing is Europeans and other foreigners, but this guy is American, no?

Wemby is a god. He is going to be the goat. He is doing stuff that's just never been done.

He's the best shot blocker ever. He's starting to learn he is also the most lethal interior player ever. He is doing drop steps 20 feet from the basket.

Good for him. Since the Pacers are having a down year without Haliburton these are the small gambles to take. McClung may not be more a victory cigar but he has hops and running him with TJ McConnell, Siakam, Obi Toppin, and Nembhart could make for a team.

The way Wemby is in attack mode off the catch is scary. Spurs are 4-0.

Took me a beat to figure out why they would be fining the Hornets' basketball.

Without Hali they were pretenders more than contenders. That's why they let Turner leave in FA. They'll be a force next year.
