I don’t know if you all have seen or heard what the Spurs Victor W did last night but it was pretty awesome. The guys guarding him are 7 feet tall and look like they are 6’2". He looks like a monster season is on the way. Pretty fun highlights to watch.
And in other NBA news, Trailblazers coach Chauncey Billups and Miami Heat player Terry Rozier both arrested this morning. Separate gambling operations. Billups was a poker game run by the Mafia. Sounds like Rozier’s is directly tied to betting on NBA games. And former Cavs player and coach Damon Jones also arrested. Just the kind of start to the season Silver wants.
Loved Chauncey with the Pistons: Mr. Big Shot.
Now its Mr. Big Bet.
For Wemby they need to raise the goal to about 12 feet!
How would you like to guard him? In today’s NBA you can’t really muscle him like the old days.And he plays out from the rim and they have to guard him outside the paint because he has a good shot. Bigs just can’t stay with him or stop him when he makes a move towards the hoop.
Phhh big deal, turned on ESPN earlier and he didn’t even make the news over Chauncey Billups.
If you haven’t watched him yet this season, I would. He doesn’t look strong, but he’s learned to use his leverage and has started to build some muscle; he’s gotten comfortable making space for himself. Maybe the secret was hanging out with those monks over the offseason ![]()
That’s it–he’s the ultimate matchup nightmare.
