  • Shaq was totally right about Victor Wembanyama, but no one listened... Shaq publicly said that the type of player Victor Wembanyama is, has already been seen in the NBA, in Bol Bol. Shaq on Wemby and Bol Bol was a take by Shaq that got everyone scratching their heads including the crew on Inside The NBA. Shaq didn't include Chet Holmgren in the conversation, but he probably should have the way he's playing this year. Whereas the San Antonio Spurs are struggling this season.

    I don't even understand the point of this video. I was highly critical of the praise dumped on him before he was even drafted. But he's been pretty darned good for San Antonio. He's had some big offense games and some really big rebounding/block shot games (in limited minutes). He can't force the coach to play him longer and he can't force his teammates to include him in more plays. He's effective in his minutes, even if he isn't shaking the world with his numbers so far. For his age and adjusting from the Paris league to the NBA, he's doing just fine.

Crazy to think the rockets knocked off the defending champs (lakers) and took that to 6 games against what is arguably the greatest team of all time the 86 celtics.

    I still remember Ralph Sampson. The NBA Rookie of the Year, Sampson averaged 20.7 points and 10.9 rebounds for his first three seasons with the Houston Rockets before injuries began to take their toll. Three knee surgeries later, after 12 seasons in professional basketball, he retired in 1995 as a four-time NBA All-Star and the NBA All-Star Game Most Valuable Player (MVP) in the 1985 NBA All-Star Game. A 7-foot-4-inch (2.24 m) phenom.

      That's right. I remember a lot of guys that washed out. The number that are 7'4" is fairly small. The difference between Sampson and Wemby is that Wemby has Pops. That is Greg Popovich. Ralph Sampson had Terry Holland at Virginia and his coach for the Houston Rockets was Bill Fitch. I had to look it up since to be honest? I didn't remember. Someone on here accused me of using Google to discover that Dr. Naismith invented the game of basketball. And that is ludicrous! But I digress. The point is that back in the 1980s when Sampson played there wasn't that much money in the game. There was a lot more than there had been 10 years before but not that much compared to what there is now. And so there are a LOT of people helping Wemby now. It's a whole team of guys. And that's because it's a different game than it was when Sampson played. It's big business. And guys like Wemby have a much better support system than Sampson did in his time. And even so? Sampson had a pretty good career. Right?

      Yes, if Shaq was really accurate, he would have pointed out Sampson was the first. The era was different so he wasn't shooting three's, but I believe he could have; he had a soft touch and good jumper. He was mobile and skilled for a big guy and was athletic before his knees went out (he competed in the dunk contest). Sampson was really the 'first' of the skilled, very lean, very tall gusys.

He has negative basketball IQ and only plays with the proper aggressiveness once every 5 games.

    Sam Bowie predates all the players you mentioned.

This is the year Hakeem got drafted first overall, and Portland took the consensus “can’t miss” center left on the board. With the third pick, Chicago was left with Michael Jordan.

      IMO Bol Bol has had plenty of time to prove himself but failed in a way. He's not a starting center, they have to wait for this slow guy or play man down on 1 end of the court like Shaq did with the Lakers but Shaq had several lockdown defenders on his team.
      I do believe Bol Bol is a good center. He'll give you 10 rebounds in 20 mins of play easy, though it's not normally against starting centers. He's 6th man off the bench potential though and if they play the Spurs or OKC they should definitely start him to take on Wemby and Chet.

    People got it all wrong. The NBA is all about politics. Its easy to have the mentality of a star when you get all of the breaks, when the league protects you, and when everything you do is made to sound good. Bol will never be a star in the NBA. He doesn't have the look. Wemby came in with the unlimited green light. He gets a lot of calls for a rookie. Noone is bodying him too hard. He still has the green light from 3 shooting 28%. They make it seem like his jumper is wet but it isn't. Why didn't they let Bol and Wemby go head to head when they played? I know the answer. They didn't want the world to see the results. Wemby didn't look too good against the joker but Bol made him look like a joke. The joker even joked with him about dunking on him too many times. People can act like the nba is really a competitive league but they are just fooling themselves. The nba always protects its stars starting with the Jordan era.

    I think the biggest thing isn’t confidence or belief. I think Bol Bol legit thinks he can be a star. What makes Wemby (and Chet for that matter) is their intelligence and feel. Wemby and Chet aren’t just freaks, they understand how to rotate and help and move their feet defensively to swat a ton of shots. They understand how to react to defenses and offenses to position themselves to succeed. And I’m talking the natural instincts to do it, not having it coached into you.

Manute (his father) didn't get the respect/attention he deserved either. You see, (those "perspectives " ) are looking to make money and control narrative. They don't really want too much attention on Africa.. especially in light of the American behaviors in Africa (Sudan) anyway... Bol Bol isn't a bad player , he just has to do twice as much to get half as much. I bet if he were any other color he would have been given the attention and opportunity . Even the teams that pick him up , don't really use him and that's not because he's a bad player. I don't think he's as good as Wemby but he IS a good player.

    It's insane to me that you compared Bol's and Wemby's pre-NBA careers when Bol played nine total games at Oregon and Wemby played a whole professional season in France. Part of why Bol didn't get play time is because he wasn't ready to play in the NBA because he had almost no experience at any level above high school. He was coming off a stress fracture that is devastating to a person his size. Wemby has looked the part of an NBA player from literally day one. It's very clear he has the instincts to succeed on both sides of the court and the mental make up to be a star. He's not a one trick pony the way Bol is, either. He goes to the post and uses that absurd length in a way that Bol has never done and has developed a post game in the way that Bol has never bothered doing. Bol is nothing but a mixtape. Bol is closer to Mo Bamba than he is Wemby.

      Okay… and? Any player worth mentioning could get 20/10 on that team. If nobody else is doing anything, then he should easily get all the stats by definition. Did you even think before vomiting on your keyboard? 😂

      If a 7’5” starter isn’t getting blocked shots, then they don’t belong in the NBA lmao

      @@Muhahahahaz Yeah I guess you're right, he should be averaging 35 and 20. And yeah he should be averaging six or seven blocks a game right? He's terrible. No wonder he only plays like 25-30 minutes a game.
