He seems to have been docile in the first halves of both games, but come alive reasonably well particularly in the 4th quarters. I agree.. if he puts it all together it's a wrap.

I'm really frustrated with Wemby though. He really needs to be operating nearer the post in this match up. It feels like the Knicks were dominating the boards, and frankly Wemby's shooting is really not up to scratch to be messing around with so many 3s and even middies. When... (not if) he misses there's no one around who's winning the rebound battle against the Knicks. He needs to trust the guards, but it almost felt at certain points that they were trying to feed him. He NEEDS to feed them.
the real issue with the Spurs is still DeAaron Fox.. yes he had a horrible mid range shooting game #1 and played pretty good game #2.. However, he should have gotten the ball out of Victor's hand when Victor tried to start the fast break to the worst ball handler on the court , Castle. Also, the last play of the game.. He should have taken the ball to hole or tried another mid range bunny shot instead of putting all the pressure on young Victor. No way Bronson is gonna pass the rock to KAT or anyone, Big Body Bronson is not afraid of the moment.. His dad show him at a young age ( there are YouTube videos of this ) that he wasn't going to be a big guard and that he had to learn to use his body to create separation so he could get his shot off against taller and bigger defenders.. Brilliant work daddy Bronson

I think Wemby has a chance to turn it around. It'll be very difficult though. But he has that spiteful competitiveness that MJ, Kobe and perhaps Steph have. It involves a component of self honesty that's rate. If he watches those games, he's smart enough to see where he's going wrong. We'll get to see if he really is, not just the generational talent we know he is, but if he is a generational winner as well. If he fails it doesn't mean he isn't one, but for sure what he does, how he does it will be very interesting. Either way I'm happy whoever wins. At least it wasn't any of the teams I really didn't want to see holding up the Larry O'brien :)
He is spiteful but he doesnt have the basketball IQ like those guys ..Victor stay into his feelings too long..
