FIRST THINGS FIRST | Nick Wright reacts Wemby's 27 Pts, 12 Reb, 3 Blk in Summer League game

1. Nick Wright always has to have a ridiculous turn to an amazing take lol

   So the issue with wimpy is that he's 74, so if he catches the ball in the paint and elevates the nobody's gonna be able to contest the shot and he could easily get five of those per game. Now when you add that to the 405 offense of rebounds in putbacks that he's going to get per game, again because he's 7 foot four, he could end up averaging 16 or 17 points a game without us even realizing that he is a bust, just because he's 7 foot five lol

   I'm worried about foot issues, I'm worried about how much she'll use 7 foot forward to his advantage, but I think pop in the staff will get him together in that room. Definitely going to be interesting to watch.

2. Nah, not without steroids at least is that kid putting on weight.
   That or get with Zion during his fridge raids.

3. I miss Jenna.Wildes needs to just be executive producer off camera.This show and the herd need a women element!!

4. Nick was right about almost everything except for the fact that Kenny is as smart as anyone on TV talking about Basketball. Kenny Smíth often has stupid takes

5. Get ready for Nick Wrong in one year 😂😂😅 when he averages more points than lebron his rook year and gets spurs to playoff

6. Lmao this is funny how peeps think he needs to put on weight, he dominated pro players in France he will do same in NBA 😂😂

7. Nick is dead wrong on Wemby. He’s going to eat his words by this time next year.

   Scoot is a BUST.

8. So whats his offensive game gonna be? He's not gonna be dribbling on the perimeter against these nba defenders and if hes inside the arc a team is putting a big body on him.

9. Nick Wright is afraid the young man will perform better than LeBron as a rookie.

10. even Jordan had to get stronger. wtf his agent talking about. lifting weights is not putting on weights plus he's only what 19 older weight is going to come anyway

11. Giannis, Embid and Jokic will still be playing in their prime 4 years from now. He will not be an MVP in 4 years.

12. Just throwing this out there when Nick is naming when people like KD and Bron got their first MVP’s he’s like “oh Jordan’s the only one to do it in year four but he’s Jordan so” like isn’t Bron your GOAT😂

13. I think he needs to learn how to feel his defenders body when he’s on offense and not facing the basket. He’s so tall, that he hasn’t been able to learn how to feel a defender with his back to the basket. I think that could help him avoid injury and get shots over every defender on earth. Low impact offensive moves. The things he does now are impressive, but it takes a toll.

14. Yao Ming was skinny

15. gotta be exhausting to cover sports like this. just saying a bunch of nonsense that gets dated in 24hrs lol

16. Kenny Smith is such a dumbass.

17. 2 baskets a Quarter is 16pts

18. I think his game will translate well. Because he will be a elite rim protector but with offensive skills. Think of a Rudy Gobert but with offense.

19. I’m 20 years Lebron has won 4. Sounds he would be pretty close to Lebron.

20. The expectations they put on him is the same they put on lebron. Which they compare him too

21. He give the ball on elbow, free throw or close to the block. All he has to do his catch turnaround and shoot. No one can block his shot.

22. He's playing to not get hurt

23. Wemby stans overlooking game 1 and his comment about "I didn't know what I was doing out there" 🤣🤣🤣

24. Nick is praying he doesnt make it, for Lebrons sake😂

25. Where are these people they keep saying have these crazy expectations of Wemby, they need to come out and stand on that 😂 too much he say she say

26. "Thick , strong, and big" pause Nick Wright 😭😭😭

27. Wemby isn't going to be putting on any size until next year. Anyone with a brain knows how hard it is to put on muscle when you're doing intense cardio 4-5 days a week. He needs a summer just to lift and gain.

28. He needs strength not weight. Adding weight too soon is just asking for injury.

29. Nah I disagree with Nick on this, Kenny has a point, now it's high praise and optimism for a guy who's never played an NBA game, but he has been a professional for a few years, so he's been playing against grown men for a while, his fundamental will be very good going in, and pop will coach him up even more, defensively he should be beast blocks and steals, and once he gets a feel for the game, with his skill set it's definitely a possibility especially when you see that these foreign born players take a couple yrs before they take off……yeah that's definitely a possibility

30. I remember when Zion made his debut and rocked the NBA world lol and look how that’s working out 😂

31. Being that tall has more kinetic force than people think. Adding body weight may hinder is performance. Strength training may be better choice vs bodybuilding where bodyweight is added.

32. When Giannis came in the league, he was a scrawny kid too. And Giannis eventually learned that he had to put on muscle mass. So I think I think he added 25-30 pounds of muscle.

    Not saying Wemby needs to go that far but he will have to bulk up a little bit. Maybe 10-15

33. Nobody has put more pressure on this kid than Chris Broussard

34. Chris talking about how “others” are saying his gonna be the goat or in the conversations but he’s literally the one setting those expectations LMAOO he’s such a a hypocrite

35. Guys summer league is a joke
    Everyone is droppin 20+ pts

36. The guy that thinks luka is the best player in the league. And is a pretty bad shooter statistically. Bit wembey has to be better. He just need to go outcan hoop. Dont be concerned wirh stats around shooting percentage.

37. Look at all superstars summer league debut : KD, Rose, LeBron and co… They were not putting 20points. It is the summer league. We will see the NBA games.

38. He looked fine. He will average 20 and 12 and 3 blocks

39. I was blown away by the way he handled the ball so low to the floor at his height.

40. KeviN Durant has no championships. I wish people would stop saying he has chips; hr doesn't
