But actual wins suggest he isn't. I'm not trying to say that in a condescending way fwiw, but they are an awful team and actually winning %, worse than last year.


Yeah but thats the whole point they’re not awful when he plays. Just some stats for your reflection.

- His per 36 stats that shell listed above are the best since Kareem in 76-77.
- His usage rate of 30.7 in 1000 plus minutes is the highest ever recorded for a rookie.
- hes shooting near 39% from 3 in his rookie year
- Spurs defense with him ON the floor has allowed 9 fewer points thats second best in the NBA next to Kawhi.

By the way Carlos Boozer is better than anything the Spurs have and the east was substantially weaker at that point than the west is now.

There really hasn't been anyone with a body like VW. Long and skinny doesn't even do his long and skinny justice. He's a different long and skinny. Dirk actually had a little mass to him too. I just don't look at him and see him as a guy that can play 20 years or something close to that, which is realistically what it would take for him to be in the GOAT conversation. Maybe I'm wrong, but most guys don't play nearly that long so it's not like I'm going out on a limb with that, much less saying it about a guy that is built more like an alien than a human being.


Ok im confused you’re saying there’s never been a body type like Wembys but your also saying most guys with his body type dont play for long seasons. You have to clear this up because both cant be true.

The Chet thing I agree can be spinned both ways but the fact he hasn’t missed a game this season is remarkable considering many people were worried about his body type.

I mean its your opinion. But the whole basketball world has his ceiling at GOAT and I agree.

Here's another way to look at it:


When rookie Lebron was off the court, his team played like this year's Utah Jazz. Not good, but not a terrible team.


When Wemby is off the court, the Spurs are by far worse than the Pistons, Wizards, or Hornets, clearing all of them by 2+ points.


THAT is a massive difference in supporting casts. And yet when both were on the court, Wemby had his shite cast darn near as good as Lebron had his much better cast.
