Last night was a good example of this. Wemby played more 5 and there was a lot more pnr action for him. He doesn’t roll often, but with real spacing he does a little bit more and the last few games he’s gotten some easy looks off it. He also doesn’t chuck as many 3’s in these lineups. He’ll do pick n pop and get set up, and his jumper looks pretty regular when he’s set up like this.

The Spurs really need to just play Wemby with decent ball handling and respectable shooting and then all of a sudden he looks like that guy we’re expecting. There are certain lineups, especially with Devin and Tre, that really unlock this. Unfortunately, Pop doesn’t seem to want to play these lineups to much, plus injuries have kept them off the floor. But, as you point out, there is definitely some lineups that Wemby does much better in.

Thanks for believing in Jeremy.

Derrick White is better than him.

The Spurs have 3 wins. Two of them came because Wemby went off in the 4th. In the other Wemby dropped 38/10 on 57/50/100. Who knows what would happen if they swapped places but I don’t see how we win those games if Chet can’t replicate those performances.

Ginobili is better.

Yea this is pretty clear for those who have watched every game. The Spurs are only competent with Tre on the floor. It’s not just Wemby who is better, literally everyone on the team improves when they play with Jones as everyone gets to play their natural role. Pop has acknowledged this so it’s not like he’s unaware. It seems like Pop wants to put these guys in a tough situation cause he thinks they’ll be better for it in the future. Also it improves their pick. I just hope he’s not burning the team out, losing takes its toll especially when the solution is obvious.

Yep, this is where I’m at with Hali. He’s on the path.

Derrick White. It’s been a year since Wiggins has been really good.

I’m afraid to inform you all that the Zach Collins experiment has worked.

You gotta believe me when I tell you this is not surprising.
