Full No Chill interview with Iman Shumpert: th-cam.com/video/IVRTwGHWah0/w-d-xo.html
The HS vs 1 year vs 3 years college to pro discussion was amazing. Super insider talk! Really informative.
Just rational thinking. Wasnt insider talk at all
🤔 Are you insane?
@@g5162 Iman offered a subjective assessment of NBA prospects based on criteria held by elite players talking well outside mainstream sports punditry. It is by definition insider discourse. Stop hating.
@@g5162you never hooped
@@g5162 say your miserable w/o saying your miserable🤡
Gil and Iman need to have a Regularien pod together
Stay winning Gil, Jo and Shump! Much love from South Africa 🇿🇦
Are there still a lot of farm murders in S Africa? Used to hear about that a lot in the news over here.
@@bigbox1431lol the news will always deceive - as Denzel says : If you don’t watch the news your uninformed but if you watch the news your misinformed.
South Africa is fine all the way from JHB
@@bigbox1431 Yeah, unfortunately they still happening, just not getting the coverage it needs
Kawhi: The adjustment is I am guarding Wembenyama.
I wanna see how this Chet Holmgren-Wemby era of "Bigs" is gonna play out Giannias leads it all but the next-gen SHOOTS from deep 🥵 very exciting times
and ja morant type guards will have a field day driving to the basket
@@NoCapJayy Facts! That's why guys like Jalen Brunson get big contracts now, driving in the paint for buckets
If they have him as a roaming shot blocker. That’s very scary. That basically lets the other 4 spurs gamble and rush the three. Basically like a zone type defense.
And even if opposing teams try to back him down and post him up.
1. That style of pound the ball back to the back offense is too slow
2. If The opposing team misses the post up, it’s an automatic rebound leak out for the spurs.
Iman Shumpert has a high basketball IQ. Bruh knows the game. Needs to be on sports tv more! Real talk!!!
Sports tv gone water him down! The same way they trying to get JJ Reddick
sports tv dont want knowledge they want HOT TAKES
@@jhonniotkrs facts
Agreed
Him and gilbert
I've never seen a rotating love seat😂
Shit kinda fire 😂
My grandma had one when I was a jit.. shit was fun to spin in 😂
When is the full episode coming I love the chemistry between Gil and iman
Someone actually over-talked Gil??? 😂🤣😂🤣
right! dude just be talking lol
SHUMP IQ IS THROUGH THE ROOF
facts gil was just sitting like a big kid waiting for the adults to stop talking😂
Shump ain’t on the payroll lol he actually gets to do what he wants
@@scandelezfact 😂😂😂
For the lazy, Gil points out Embiid and Jokic @3:15 as the two centers Wemby has to worry about. Jaren Jackson Jr is also mentioned.
Embiid in the regular season. Sure
Couple more centers as well. Wemby going to get humbled. Kid is talking like a arrogant vet in interviews
Evan Mobely? Nic Claxton? Wendell Carter? Anthony Davis? Versatile bigs that can guard 2-3 positions
@@babyj5566what!?! Which ones?
@@babyj5566 sounds like someone’s mad they not getting wemby😂 GSG
Drop THE FULL EPISODE WITH IMAN PLEASE/ I CAN LISTEN TO IMAN & GIL TALK SPORTS ALL DAY!!! 💥💥💥💥
Great cast!!
Of course Vic will struggle against stronger and more experienced players, that's what being a rookie is all about, Vic running that thin 7'5 frame up and down the court, cutting, euro-stepping, multiple quick successive shot block) rebound/putback attempts, and running through/setting screens is what concerns me about this talented young player
I can listen to iman talk hoops all day
Pascal did play center last year I think until Toronto got Jakob poetil at the deadline
He gonna be more sick when he finds out he 7’5 😂☠️
With shoes, he’s 7’3 without
@@hlrpodcast1262 ur never gonna be hooping without shoes so he’s 7’5
@@yamidarkness1898😂😂 He literally said the most pointless thing ever
😂😂😂😂
@@nostresssteeze2597this dude freestyling just talking. he swear he spittin😂😂
He has to worry about Steve adams,miles turner,Mitchell Robinson etc..he definitely has his hands full at the center position
I’m scared for him to run into the Steven Adam’s of the league
Wtf is Shump talking about? Euroleage against grown men is better than high school
Like Shaq said, if they lowered the goal just a lil bit, they'll be dunkin and really have the game exciting
NBA doesn’t even dunk anymore
That's for WNBA
Walker kessler should be a good matchup for him too.
Imam is demonstrating bias wrapped in inability to evolve. Dude can't even see that 4 of 5 best players are from overseas.
And who are the 5 best players 😭😂 bro Jokic not top 5 Luka ain’t top 5 who else you got y’all just be saying any damn thing players win 1 ring now they top 5 get the fuck outta here you gotta be consistent for at like 7 years straight to be a top 5 name one over seas player that was that I’ll wait 😭😂😂😂
Steve Adams from power perspective,Kristaps Porzignis,Joel Embid and Giannis are able to matchup Wemby at least in his rookie year.Later the frenchman maybe becomes unguardable.Who knows.
Gil's trousers in this are so nice btw
Damn thought we were in the era of positionless basketball and now they saying it’s a few centers to worry about smdh just wait and see what the man does
High school basketball translates better than professional ball in France... sure lmao.
some of the dumbest shit i have ever heard lol
Y’all giving him too much credit saying he only has to worry about 2 centers🤦🏽♂️😂 he’s not no better than any starting center in the league until he plays an NBA game! Stop giving respect to him if he hasn’t earned it yet!
facts
Like MJ said, they pay you on potential now days. In his day you won chips and still had to fight for a good contract.
Josiah hooped
Shump hooped (also Chicago rapper)
Gil hooped.
As a fan of basketball these 3 together is goated. 🐐🐐🐐
2:00 they really talking about lamelo ball
Dude can play. More importantly, he can put buts in the seat.
Hahaha "Jarret Jack is a coach" 🤣🤣🤣
Bro drop the video already 😭😭😭 we need it
i can confidently say siakam has never been listed as a centre LOL it’s jakob poetl in toronto and before him it was chris boucher
Gil be putting players in positions they don't even play in just to try and make a point. 😂
WE NEED THE FULL VIDEO
Iman got that old head way of thinking 😂🤣
That lineup in the back is sick 👌
He should play the 4. On defense Spurs can make him a help side roamer like they do with Giannis. Giannis rarely guard players 1 on 1 that much, he is usually the help side defender. Look at how the Lakers played Anthony Davis against Nuggets. They tried to keep Rui on Jokic while Davis protected the paint.
Does it mean he should play the four Anthony Davis did that at the five no way my 7’4 Prospect is playing power forward
@@youngjai1586Porzingis(7’3) played the 4 early in his career. Still do at times.
he will play the 4, he's too light to bang with centers and it will be less tear on his body. Now imagine a 7'5 lengthy monster coming from the weakside to block your shit, that's gonna be scary
@@atsurh doesn’t have to plate the 4 to do that he will get banged up regardless hit the weights n stop being scary all this holding players back and we have the highest injury rates with the most technology
@@youngjai1586 If you actually watch wemby tape and games you would understand he can't play the 5 yet. His game is KD like and finesse, of the dribble/pick n pop/roll. High post passing and Lob threat target. Playing the four will help ease him into the spurs system. hit the 'weight' doesn't sound easy bro, you need remember he's 7'5, it will takes years to develop his weight and build into a grown man. Thus playing him at the 4 is the safest route to minimum injury risk .
I wanna see what pop can do with him. Tim still helping with the team too right ?
Can someone that knows basketball answe the following: if Wem is 7'5, why is the ball nkt being stolen. The dribble has to be high. How far is Wem bending over to dribble.
wingspan - like, if he has someone on his hip, the ball is a loooong way away
I have to respectfully disagree with Shump on this one. The American hs players are not as fundamentally developed as the guys coming out of Europe.
IMAN IS BRILLIANT. HIS WAY OF THINKING AS A HOOPER IS REALLY COOL.
"even know I don't know sh*t about it" sums it all.
I was thinking Mitchell Robinson is gonna bully victor
eh...mich kinda dumb. idk
Def need more collabs with shump
watch the footage, he can be bodied up by 6'1 guards. he falls apart if any physicality comes into play
Lmao who bodied him at 6"1? You trippin
Wemby played in a league harder to score American high school or any program. He will destroy the modern soft defensive NBA.
Them people ain’t labeled as a center lol😂
Yea shumpert on here niceeee 😅👏🏽💯🎯
i actually liked that comment about creativity shrump said ‼️
They don't realize it yet. This kid is literally Kobe Bryant in the body of Georghe Muresan. He's taller than Marjanovic and he's nimble like kd, doing crossover and shit.
Kobe Bryant....
😑😑😑
@@therealdonaldtrump1646 Yes I said it.
@@mikatteba225 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kobe?! like, Wemby has a tough mindset, but don't be silly
Embidd would put 60 on em! lol no way in hell he is guarding Embidd, Giannis,Jokic, Anthony Davis. he has a long ways to go to get to that level.
You didn’t watch his game in Europe if not you wouldn’t say that, their are more traditional big men, 7ft 260+ with a back to the basket game in Europe and Wemby never got embarrassed, he is already 230, Kareem was 7’2 225 pounds, and Evan Mobley for exemple is smaller than Wemby but he is already a DPOY level defender so i don’t know why y’all act like Wemby is 190 pounds like rookie Giannis lol, Wemby is huge, and im not saying he won’t get bullied 2-3 times per game but every player literally get bullied 2-3 times per game when they play against the Lebron, Joker, Giannis, Embiid, AD, Zion ect, and these same players also get bullied by the other players lol, Embiid destroyed Jokic in the regular season he had like 47 and 17 or something like that, Lebron had 40/10/9 in his last game and scored a lot of his points on Jokic, and Giannis almost always destroy AD this is the NBA
@@Anthonydu01630 some guy literally stand dunked him and put his balls on wemby head😂😂
@@Anthonydu01630he’s 19 and a rookie. Shaq got his ass bust when he was young, Kobe got his ass bust when he was young, Jordan got his ass bust a couple times when he was young to. It will be the same for wemby. He won’t come in just dominating.
@@mjgould1192MJ didn't get his ass bust 1v1 you casual
Lets completely ignore AD.
He’s a pf
@@lilshaan6252he been playing center since 2021
@@Nick-sr4fethe nigga dont even like playing center
@@Nick-sr4fewe ain’t gonna make play center again , he will be PF not bc of Vic but bc we worry about him playing center all the time
@@Nick-sr4fe cause they haven’t had a legit center capable of playing 40 minutes. He’s their best option at center .
He should be good in the league but I gotta wait to see
idk if I agree with hs players being better for NBA than college players, I see it turning out like the Houston rocket this year, with their Aau type of style. especially with pro coaches setting up systems to throw off your game and play on your mannerism's. you'll properly find good stats and highlight plays, but team success would be down the drain.
2:01-2:05. 😩 Shit feels splendid I tell you. It’s specifically what I think about constantly.
him vs Bol Bol or against Kenny Lofton again
They're gonna put 4s on him defensively
Jokic and Luka both come from being professionally coached early. Seem pretty good. AAU shit 1v1 basketball doesnt mean creative
This guy is not moving Adams in the post. He might shoot over him but he aint backing him down.
We need shump moreeeee !
Embiid in the regular season. Sure, makes sense
this pod out yet
Ain’t passed the ball yet 😂😂😂
Rapidash use high cap power !
I wanna see Vic when Luka, SGA, KD & Kai get him on an island.
Big reason why i dont compare 90s to todays nba. Its was common to do 3/4 years in college then go pro...so jordan averaging 30 rookie year isnt that crazy when u realize hes already 21(also played against coke heads). While we expect dudes who would be sophomores in college to lead a franchise and if youre in college your junior year than you must not be that great😂😂 its lose lose
Shit they said Patrick Ewing at Georgetown was the most famous athlete in US as a junior😂
Facts. Rookie at 21 vs Rookie turning 18 is big difference.
Gil trippin Vucevic, Horford, Turner, Jackson, Bam, Mobley, and AD gonma give him work
i like iman and gil together
Iman aint lying
He's gonna have to worry about jalen duren when they see Detroit
PETITION TO REPLACE MCCANTS ON NO CHILL FOR SHUMP.
The best example of a high school player coming with a ton of creativity is none other than Kobe Bryant!
Is it worth getting victor rookie card
Yes
Kat somewhere super sad not listed 😂😂😂
Shumpert swears he actually had that work for people. he never added anything to his game. he actually lost his athleticism and it was over. never got a jumper. couldn't handle the rock , and always fouled the 3 point shooter
He gota go thru AD 😢
I could listen to Shump talk ball ALL DAY... 💯💯💯
Who the guy in the middle he don't know basketball if he think he not gonna be good cuz he played international 🤦♂️🤷♂️like jokic didn't just win mvp 2 years and just won championship and finals mvp and wax the floor with lebron and ad 1st picks 😂😂😂
My daughter coming straight out of HS. Manifesting it
Why do they ignore how he can't be a center like Joker cause he too skinny. Once Pop schools him like Robertson and Duncan, then he'll be a beast.
Wemby 7-4 and plays like he’s 6-6 on offense sneaky shot blocker ….
The one leg up momentum 3 is krazi takes off from the behind the 3 and releases Damb near by the free throw line lol
He should be good if he stays healthy. But don’t act like he’s going to come in dominating. Both iman and Gil got they head bust when they was young by average players. Shaq got his head bust when he was young, Kobe did, Jordan did too. Wemby is going to get his head bust a couple times rookie year.
Ion see Bron in here 👀🤣🤣 jk.
@@keandrenash bron prolly got some too tho😂😂😂 everybody did. They got a compilation on knuckleheads podcast where they ask who bust they ass when they first got to the league. EVERYBODY got some.
Yall making the MVP mad trust the process
Kat in minnesota will give him problems
Adams could stick with him honestly but other than that nah
Shump gotta be on the show more to make Gilbert lean reality lol
Many high schooler that goes straight to the NBA are bust 😂
You misunderstood the convo
@@FlashxSwazy can you enlighten me about what there trying tl say
@@FlashxSwazyit is kinda relevant though. They need some time after HS to mature in their bodies and basketball skills and mind.
That’s actually not true most prep to pro players have solid careers stop listening to media goofy
In recent years there are high school prospects going straight to the NBA that are bust like kwame brown, robert swift, jonathan bender, desagna diop, daruis miles, eddy curry, martle webster, leon smith and many more
I'll play him as a forward like KD or Tatum tbh as a mismatch
He is a mismatch at forward or center
Tatum a 2-3. Wemby won’t be playing that.
wemba do me a favour really quick, you see that man over there, the one that looks like aquaman and a brickwall had a baby, can you try and stop that me from doing anything, it'll really help the team out here
I see why Iman didn't reach his potential. 😂
Joker and luka played pro in europe
They aint scaring u? Damn iman brave
He's sitting there like he's the boss of the N.B.A just a kid
Gotta worry about my boys Nick Claxton and the Fro show Jarret Allen. They’re no pushovers either 😤
Claxton and Allen are not on his level
Gil & Shump have something!
“Naw Giannis is a 4”, really Gil. Nobody else on the Bucks will be able to guard Wemby on the perimeter.
On the perimeter? He won’t be able to get by jrue
@@freddycalipari4242 Holiday is 6'5. He won't have to get by him on the perimeter. With his shot making ability he can shoot over Holiday. He is 7'4 - 7'5.
He gotta get bigger
I am worried about his efficiency. He's atrocious from 3 and not great from 2 considering his size. And he was playing against little guys in France
Bam ? Anthony Davis?
