This dude deserves a cool nickname. He should not just be Wemby.
The Alien
The block on Klay was better. From the dotted line to the 3 point line, Klay looked so comfortable like Wemby was too far to block it. Bet that’s gonna happen a lot this season.
Bro he did it again lmao
He played with their hearts, got lost in the game…
O baby baby
Oops they thought he was in loovee
Is the warriors commentator calling him “WembanyaNa?” or am I stuck on just hearing that now
Warriors announcers suck
We never liked Bob Fitzgerald, and we were heartbroken when Jim Barnett was forced out.
I like Fitz
I like how everyone here hates him, but the Warriors were so good they had to listen to him
Goofiest announcer by far, guy drives me nuts
Same I thought I was hearing things. Just call him Wemby, make it easy on yourselves
looks like he made the adjustment on the pronunciation lol
such an easy name and I keep hearing it mispronounced
There are much easier names people pronounce entirely wrong. Like “Doncic”
Are we only getting upset when consonants are mispronounced and not vowels? because we normalize vowel mispronounciations for no particular reason
This is actually an interesting observation. I would respond that vowel sounds are more similar than consonant sounds. They all require similar mouth shapes and are all drawn-out, guttural noises. Consonants, on the other hand, force the mouth into all sorts of different shapes. B, K, SH, and W are all totally different sounds that seem harder in theory to mix up. Granted, in this case, N and M are some of the more similar consonants and seem more likely to get confused with each other.
No particular reason? How about the fact that it’s far less obvious from looking at it. Replacing consonants with another is infinitely more avoidable.
God sent Wemby to end all this Lebron/Jordan talk… the man guarded the rim, then the 3 point line 1 second after.
new wemby highlights and rainbow shots gonna take us into 2024
Having a guy like Wembanyama able to get out so quickly on 3-point shooters is a real game-changer.
He is legitimately playing helpside D at the rim & covering the opposite 3 at the same time. That is such an insane leap beyond where the best in the league was a year ago
He’s defending rim and 3pt line at the same damn time.
Players are eventually going to learn to make space and fake him . It’s going to be fun seeing hom adjust and keep building on his skills
Coach: Victor, you can’t leave a shooter with that much space
Victor: Space? Where we’re going, we don’t need space.
Just like me throwing my shoe in the air.
He jumped FROM THE CORNER
Damn I’m already sold on this bastard
So basically he’s tall rudy gobert with offensive game
He’s Ralph Sampson doin wilt things.
Holy shit, Wemby is clearly the best player on the floor right now and the floor includes Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Andrew Wiggins.
