hardest part of making this video must have been cutting down the Wemby highlights to just 30 minutes
this is honestly valid😭
his career is just gonna be a highlight reel fr🤠
and hes plays that many per game
TRUE
lol
Still remember when people called him a bust after one game
Yeah, I hate when we rush rookies or even sophomores. Same in football. Let’s calm down, let them marinate and then let’s judge them.
He’s still a baby so he has time to grow to be even better than our current/past goats.
Least reactionary NBA take
People were having legacy talks in summer league lmao
Yea you can’t talk sports with everyone
One SUMMER game at that!
It's like chet is having the season wemby was supposed to have and wemby is having the greatest rookie season in nba history. The dude blows lebrons rookie season out of the water right now
Jordan,Bird, Shaq and Robinson have better years
@@KilluaGon yeah and they all played nearly 12 more minutes than him in their rookie seasons.
With LeBron you got to account for era and him being a year younger.
@@farhansarkar2394 yeah, lebron was a year younger and what was really special was his year 1 to year 2 leap. still, just comparing their seasons wemby's is quite a bit better
@farhansarkar2394 You're right. It's a lot tougher to play defense in this Era. Good point.
I think Wemby's skill that has gone most underrated is his sense of balance combined to how aware he is of the exact position of his *gigantic goddamn body* in space and on the court. He always seems to know exactly where "all of him" is relative to the ball, the basket, and other players. His movement and self-perception (proprioception if you want to get fancy) is mind-boggling at times. You can see it on a few of the plays in this video, like this dunk at 16:20 and obviously the insane no-look block at 3:00.
This kind of physical self-awareness is often what's lacking in massive physical players. The bigger guys tend to look like they're sort of bumbling around trying to keep their body in people's way without really understanding the dynamics of it. But Wemby is so *fluid* and versatile with his wingspan and movement. That allows him to be even deadlier as a lob option, he will not only reach impossible balls but handle them well in the air. It also gives him those unguardable layups going reverse or shoot the ball *behind the defender*, and he already starts a lot of post moves without needing eyes on the basket which makes him so much harder to defend.
No one who is that tall should have that fine command of their physical space. Like he doesn't just change the geometry of the court, he is *aware of the geometry he creates*. Also goes a long way to explain why he's so much better creating his own shot rather than catch-and-shooting, because his teammates aren't used to passing in rythm to a guy with so much limbs going on.
And what's even more scary? That projects him as an absolutely deadly passer, in case opposing defenses didn't have enough problems already.
Your a brainiac. I love it. I thought I was the only one that breaks down every little detail. 💯👍
That's an AWESOME breakdown !!!
Well said.
Yeah. when he dribbles, to me it looks like a puppeteer controlling a marionette. Like the top half of him is all the way up there, and there's a wee little point guard inches off the ground doing the ball handling.
I no longer hate Kawhi for ditching the Spurs. Thank you Kawhi. We would not have Wemby had you stayed.
y'all not winning championship regardless
@@AhmadAshraf-bx8xdwe still have more rings than your favorite team
@@davidgonzales2412oof
@@AhmadAshraf-bx8xdbro got ratio’ed 😂😂😭😭😭
@@davidgonzales2412 my favourite team is the laker..
Kid is so special. I'm a piston fan but have always loved the Spurs because of Timmy, Tony & Manu. Thank God, he went to them. This young man, god willing he stays healthy will be a massive problem for a generation.
what got me excited is that all his weakness is all a rookie mistake. The amount of TO he has in games, his tendency to bite on fake, sometimes too eager to do everything on his own, forcing bad shots, etc. y'know the kind of mistakes that you can fix by just going into training session in the off-season. And with the amount of former Spurs players that he could asked to trained with, heck even Gobert probably grinning ear to ear if Wemby asked him to share some of his wisdom, Wemby could be very very good come next season.
Oh and if ever try to master skyhook, just close the NBA down cause at that point, ain't nobody gonna stop him lmaoo
he probably is the prospect since Kareem. I don't think it's hyperbolic. In a sport where being tall is an advantage, he has it all- The height and length, the athleticism and agility for the modern game, the skills, the intangibles like his poise and drive to win. There's no limits for this dude. I almost forgot to mention he's already an awesome passer/playmaker
Good vocab👌
I think he's by far the best prospect since Tim Duncan -- and Tim Duncan came in ~2 two years older. Insanity
@@Time_Lapse_Master.Bron?
@@linktown-blue907 I probably should rephrase "Prospect" to "Rookie season"
@@Time_Lapse_Master. that’s fair
Victor Wembanyama ends his first season as the first rookie in NBA history with 1,500 points, 250 assists and 250 blocks.
Only 4 players EVER have reached those numbers at ANY point in their careers:
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
Hakeem Olajuwon
David Robinson
Victor Wembanyama
Victor Wembanyama is the 10th player in NBA history to average 20/10/3 blocks in a season.
Kareem, Ewing, Hayes, Lanier, McAdoo, Mourning, Shaq, Hakeem, D. Robinson.
Wemby the only player to do it in less than 30 minutes per game.
He did it as a rookie.
I watched him for the first time against the Nuggets, and it's pretty clear that his ceiling is so much higher than we expected. His handle needs to be more consistent considering his playstyle, and he definitely needs to become stronger. He clearly draws a lot of his game from Kevin Durant, and that's scary.
Great observations!
Maybe higher than some of you expected. I've been telling the doubters he is something you will never see in this lifetime
Lemby is just empty stats stickman😂 Lemby will carry spurs to 28 wins next season👽👽👽 he will spend his entire career in playin and hospital beds 😂
“We” nah just you fam
@@Tyrone44490L bait
Seeing people just not take shots when he around is just so crazy to me but i need a coby white vid before the season ends gangy🤞😭
Wemby will have MULTIPLE MVP's and DPOY's.
It's inevitable.
Victor-y will be his! 👍👏
I think as long as the Spurs can enter the playoffs， Wembanyama can monopolize DPOY for the next decade.
Lemby will never win MVP hes just empty stats he will carry spurs to 25 wins next season 👽👽👽
I'm a simple man I see Wemby I click. I hope they will tank for one more season and Wemby does not end up in the Luka situation and he can be actual contender in 3-5 years. But seemingly the Spurs manage everything well so far. Wemby seems like he can handle this immense pressure both physically and mentally. @HoopVenue All your videos are insane quality , Your channel gonna be big. Keep up the good work!
Bingo. I said the same thing. If they really want to dominate pair Wemby with a young star through the draft. No free agents or small inefficient guards like Trae Young.
Not same players, Wemby sucess is a matter of time. Spurs can choose the timeline they want to start winning. The major diference between Wemby and almost every single all-nba player is his defense. It's much more easy to win as the best two-way player ever
@@SaySpawnyou can pair Wemby with my cousin and they are still a lock to win the NBA. Plus Trae is a great PG, I really don't understand the hate
That no look block Tyrus Jones is crazy
You covered Victor so well all year. This the type of content we didn't have growing up. Kids are gonna be able to actually see how his entire rookie season played out because of your vids. You made history dawg. Salute 👏🏾
I think he deserves defensive player of the year. Gobert I think is a close second.
Gobert has a lot of tall, strong, and more experienced players around him as support.
Wemby is a 1 man defence for his team without any big help from his teammates.
Wemby's best teammate is Pop.
He has the potential to be the best big man ever.
I’m so glad I’m getting into basketball because of Wemby
Yeah he is getting me back in. Lebron made me leave for a bit
@@Thorcat001 I’m a brand new fan. Learning the game of basketball on different channels.
@@qaaronrodgers2479 awesome. Lot of great players of the pass to watch. But this victor is something I have never seen. Can’t wait to see more of him
Check out jxmyhighroller for entertaining videos, and JJ Redicks podcast “The Old Man And The Three” for great basketball insight, a lil in depth but definitely stuff for everyone :)
Bro cooked up a mean 30 min video right after Wemby's masterclass against the Denver Nuggets
Once the Spurs get better at defense at the perimeter and a strong second scorer when he's on the bench then they will be unstoppable.
He's improving, these fakes shots don't have the same impact on Wemby as season go along. He's more cool and patience, and post-all star game he has like 15 games with more than 5 blocks. There's so much he can learn, I don't think my generation has seen something like him. Other than Kareem and Wilt, there's no other player with the same unique impact and promising future.
Great video man 👍
But you forgot to mention that he improved a lot during the season, for example with his defense and the fact he bite on fakes or hesitations, it was true for the 4 first months but it’s not the case anymore
Why do y’all keep suggesting he put on more weight like to 220s, that’s too much I’m not tryna see my man’s outta the league in 5-7 years his mobility is one of the factors that make him special
He is going to gain weight anyway with a slower metabolism as he ages.💯
He’s already more than 220s he’s 7’5
He already weighs like 230 as we speak
Look at Victor's most recently listed weight right now...
He is 230 right now, and the best weight for him would probably be like 250-260 max so he keep his agility, speed and mobility.. 250 or 260 isn’t a lot for a 7’4 guy, that’s Lebron, Giannis, AD or young Gobert weight, Gobert is probably around 270 right now, so i think in the 2nd part of his career when Wemby will be 30+ he will put on some weight just like Gobert, AD, Duncan ect did, and he will become a 2nd offensive option, or 1B like AD with the Lakers, or Duncan after 2007, but they are/were still monster rim protector/defender so even old Duncan had a huge impact, in fact Duncan should have 3 or 4 FMVP, Kawhi wasn’t better than him in 2013, same for TP in 2007… Being an elite rim protector is so valuable so Wemby will always be valuable even if he average 15ppg, the kid is so versatile he could be a GOAT role player at the end of his career, like a Brook Lopez on steroids
You are the GOAT my guy, your videos have helped me get strategies to get ready for college ball and I learn something new every time you upload.
That means a lot, best of luck with your basketball career!
30 minutes worth of goodness
Please say pause
🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@mattmmixes | Resume
@@mattmmixesunfortunately he didn’t say pause
That’s my boy. spurs have been my #1 team since I was a little kid growing up in San Antonio was tough like anywhere else to be honest but the one thing that brought me joy was watching Tim Duncan Ginobili and Tony Parker can’t forget about Kawai and DeMar DeRozan now we have Wemby for 4 years the basketball GODS have finally answered one of my prayers now if only we can get a good PG trae Young I can see us competing on a higher lvl than ever before
Trae + Wemby = ??? 😈
That one clip against the grizzles where they have a 3v1 but nobody is willing to drive at Wemby is one of my favorite plays of all time.
Already seen him 3 times at home the last one was the win against okc, glad he’s here in the Alamo City
Victor Wembanyama is breaking basketball records faster than I break my New Year's resolutions!
great video , nice to see you talk about good and bad points , even if i tend to agree of idea of less block/ better defense tendancy there is a thing to take in consideration with vic : the fact that a huge part of his blocks became also steal , for a classic player its logic to have less block in career but for vic it can be a different situation due to that
I was a big fan of wemby coming into the draft and thought he was gonna be great defensively, however I assumed that he would struggle with foul trouble like most young shot blockers, NOPE. If you compare his fouls per 100 to some of the other great shot blockers and defenders that have come into the NBA, he is one of the most disciplined and foul averse shot blockers we have ever seen at such a young age. Here are some of the great defenders in NBA history and their Blocks and Fouls (per100) in their rookie seasons.
JJJ 2.7 blks 7.2 fouls
Draymond 1.2 blks 7.6 fouls
Ben Wallace 2.9 blks 7.1 fouls
Gobert 5.0 blks 6.9 fouls
Embiid 4.7 blks 6.9 fouls
Tyson Chandler 3.5 blks 6.8 fouls
Marcus Camby 3.6 blks 6.0 fouls
Joakim Noah 2.2 blks 5.8 fouls
Marc Gasol 1.9 blks 5.6 fouls
Hakeem 3.5 blks 5.5 fouls
Mourning 4.9 blks 5.2 fouls
Antony Davis 3.3 blks 4.6 fouls
Robinson 5.2 blks 4.2 fouls
Dwight 2.6 blks 4.4 fouls
Garnett 2.9 blks 4.2 fouls
Wemby is at 5.7 blks and 3.4 fouls per 100. He blocks more shots then anyone here and does it on less fouls then anyone here. Of all the people I looked at for this the only person I saw with less fouls per 100 was Evan Mobley with 3.1 in his rookie year, but he's actually regressed in that area, he was at 4 per 100 last year and 4.4 this year.
FREAK NATURE 7'5, 8 wingspan point guard skills 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
no one talks about the precise timing, eye coordination, instincts, and body control it takes to block the way he does. normies seem to think, "oh of course he gets lots of blocks he is 7'4." and that takes away from what he is doing, which is bs.
His step back 3 being good is going to cause so many mismatch problems for his career. Anyone to big and he creates so much space with it, anyone to small and he can just shoot over them.
All that while having the potential to be a GOAL level lob/roll threat, and a GOAT level rim protector, and a pretty good passer.
He's living up to the hype. Incredible
OUI OUI WEMBY C'EST LA VIE ! get ready
you said it yourself, deterring shots at the rim. you’ve seen the clips of the grizzly players that run away from him at the rim. he’s single handedly keeping his team from being the worst defense in the league. he’s my dpoy 100%
He is Him!!!!!
3:26 You are absolutely right. And here you can see Wemby knows as well. It's his first year! He's progressing fast.
I'm telling you: In the next year he's gonna make Black Jesus green with envy and moist with desire.
edit: okay, that was a bit over the top but you know what I mean. Dude's incredible!
Gonna go get lunch n come back for this
One thing I'd like to point out is how many times people call for fouls when getting blocked by Wemby. They've become so comfortable with being able to get free shots off while trying to draw fouls that when they try to play like that, they get stuffed and cause contact off their own accord which leaves them on the floor.
He is breaking basketball so much that the Spurs will be worse this year with him than without him 😂😂😂 Real game changer.
I started loving basketball during mj first 3peat and ive seen everyone since and nothing close to this young man maybe a young Shaq wasn’t nothing like that
a lot of the negatives u mentioned seem like they can be improved given some more experience. i’m ecstatic to see his potential come to fruition if he stays healthy
Sometimes YT's Autoplay feature is exactly on point. Great analysis.
I can imagine this is what it felt like when Wilt, and Kareem showed up on the scene times 10
Forgot to show that Juke he did to Giannis 💯 that was deadly
It’s not his height that’s the inconsistency with his shooting btw. Wemby and his trainers mentioned it before. As other big man before him, it’s his fingers that causes the consistency. If they come off his fingers wrong it can be inaccurate even when the form is solid
His defense just fuels the offense idk how many fast breaks spurs go bc that
Loooook, when I saw that play where Giannis throws his body into Wemby on the drive so he can create space for the dunk, I jumped out of my seat like NAHHHHHHH bro didn't just smush that. Completely erased it. Ik the Greek Freak wasn't prepared for that
Fire vid
If Victor Wembanyama doesn’t win DPOY then I’m going to start thinking the NBA is actually rigged when it comes to awards and picks because he should definitely win it, the only reason I feel like you could say he shouldn’t is because quite a few players have gotten there career high in points against the spurs this year like Joel Embiid, Alperen Sengun, and Jalen Brunson to name a few but that shouldn’t matter because there’s no denying the impact he has defensively when he is on the court, I don’t feel like there’s anybody in the league who thinks it’s going to be a for sure bucket in the paint when he’s guarding them
As long as he's in the same area code as the rim he's a threat to score 😂
I cant wait for the day he gets the quadruple double
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
30 mins of HV is better then netflix looool
his floor might be like top 5 ever 😭😭
I love this guy, wish him a healthy career because he can be the greatest player ever
3:01 yowza
His defense sets him apart of any other all-NBA in the league. Other than Wilt, there's no other two way player like him.
🏀💪🏾💪🏾
What was the spurs record?
Hassan whiteside kept snatch block compilations used to be so Amazing, wemby does it every game. Whiteside wasn’t just any blocker either
Wemby if health will likely have a top 25 floor and a top 10 ceiling all dependent on if he can find team success.
The joker travels like no other.
Wemby made these NBA players feel that unfair physical advantage while normal people played against them back in school lol.
Do you think Wemby has a case for making an all nba team
He gotta be DPOTY
30 minute video goddamn
Gaining weight would be a terrible idea for his joints.
👽🛸👽🛸👽🛸
NBA shot block stats started to be kept since 1973-74 (1971-72 for ABA). Wemby is setting records starting at that date.
But earlier that that Russell and Chamberlain were known as great shot blockers so, Wemby is the getting the benefit of no shot block stats in the 60s.
He’s remarkable!
13:10 well… you should say he has actually improved against Jokic to the point he was way better than him yesterday.
hoop venue jumpscare
Bro chill!
I know its not true but in another universe wemby is wilt Chamberlins kid, also since lebron, carmelo, shaq have kids i wonder how good durants kids would be.
Most pressure since Lebron
The hate was 20x louder than the apology
Wemby will be the goat
Hope we get Rissacher.
RecordFN really ab to hit 100k
Came a long way 😂🙏🏻
Imagine the Spurs get Sarr lmao
How soon they will be the best defensive team in the league
VW has BLOCKED 90% of the GREATEST TOP 10 of the players he played with in his ROOKIE YEAR...
*DPOY*
Hoop!!!!
Bill hader reconizes
I don’t think Victor is DPOY this year. He still gets caught out of position sometimes, and doesn’t have the best awareness yet. But he’s so long and fluid it almost doesn’t matter sometimes. But his ceiling is definitely greatest defender of all time, and I don’t think that’s too far fetched
Remenber when the MSGarden said "Over rated"
All this, and the Spurs ended up in last place. Can you even imagine how bad they would be if he wasn't on the team?
A lot if this poor result is due to management decisions and we're not decided on the floor.
Remember the Sochan "experiment"?😂
If he can get up to 38 plus percent from 3 in the next year or 2, then holy shit.
He is already a great shooter, not worried about percentages to much, however he's shooting 41% on pull up 3's all year better than Karl Anthony towns and identical with Curry but he's 7'5. I watched Wemby shoot 36.5% from all 3's since the end of December. 40% from 3 the entire month of February. 💯 The 3 point shot is volatile for all volume shooters even Curry.
The only time Wemby won't win DPOY is with injuries and voters fatigue
Do they ever call traveling any more
ROY yes, DPOY why not, it's defendable...
Lonzo Ball & Wemby would be 1st Defense and Offense
Factor meals have a lot of sodium.
3:00 is fucking silly
13:30 & 29:01 I checked and in the rules pinning the ball on the backboard like this is still a goaltend.
But it's not just Wemby doing this that gets ignored. NBA officiating is crap.
"Like Embiid dropped 70, Jokic has had his way"
Sir, that's the mvp of this season, and the other one is the player argued to be the best basketballer in the world who was the mvp of last season's playoffs.
If that's the standard for Wemby getting clapped up, he's already a problem for hoopers.
That’s exactly what I said 😂
wilt if he is in modern nba，but wilt gonna be scarier
I can’t wait to see what this kid does
Embiid's career high in blocks is 2.5, not 3.5.
Easily the best defender in the nba not even close…people called me crazy for saying he’d be the DPOY in his rookie season
What rookie yk averaging 22 points ther rookie season shooting 33 percent from 3 aka he’s gonna be better the Lebron he might win a championship very soon
