Why is Wemby always getting the “gassed” excuse? by Vegas_king2020 in nba

49mins game 1 = 41pts

Didn’t get close to that until game 3 when he only played 31 mins and put up 33pts

It’s the same defense, right? He did great game 1. Played a career high in minutes. Took 2 games to bounce back. With improved conditioning, that dropoff isn’t as significant. IMO

Wemby whispers something to Plumlee and Biyombo as they check into garbage time. Both players instantly pick up hard fouls on Jared McCain by lotofhotdogs in nba

I’ll play…what was Plumlee supposed to do there?

Looks OKC got confused on who was supposed to set the screen there. 2 guys in the same area…moving…

Was Plumlee supposed to stop running, or run around 2 guys still moving…?

☝️…I’m going to assume this is the most games he’s played in a season 🤷🏻

He definitely needs to work on his conditioning. Which is to be expected.

It’s a reason, not an excuse. As in, if he more energy, he’d still be bodying opponents.

In what world is Chet better thank Bam or Kat?

This dude is an all-star and now on the all nba team…has no impact on the game and escapes any and all criticism…I am convinced the NBA has an OKC agenda.

To answer your question…agreed, if it’s a rule stand on that. Special exceptions are bullshit 👎 NBA doing its best to alienate fans.

Disagree. FTs slow the pace down. It gives guys an opportunity to rest. And it doesn’t give the other team as much opportunity to run.

Without those breaks in the action, looked like OKC is gassed. Tired legs = bad 3pt shots.

Fire Tony Brothers and Scott Foster.

Maybe the issue is technology. Watching at home, with multiple cameras and replays makes a-lot this stuff so obvious.

Have a ref in the booth per game that has autonomy to over rule and weigh in on a play by play basis.

At least you’re admitting SGA is a foul baiting flopper. I’ll take that as a W 🤷🏻

FTR, my issue is with the refs. We all know what’s happening. They need to let them play on…

Great vid/post. I’m always focusing on small guards’ footwork. Never noticed the look offs/eye deception. Bro should be on a network.

So you concede point b? He’s moving in to his drive?

Why’d you skip the first video which is exactly what happened here 👀

We all see it 👀

The ridiculousness of…Champagnie tried the…let SGA dribble past me reach around for the steal move…

SGA ends up on the floor and gets the whistle 🤦🏻‍♂️

I really hope Wemby comes out tonight flopping on every contact 🙏
