Blazers’ announcers about Wembanyama being “a step ahead”

1. Such a subtle thing but yet another way they can make the game easier for one another. You even see Victor talking to Cedi at the end of the clip likely about the very same thing the Blazers commentator was talking about

2. Thought this was a great call out by the Trailblazers broadcast. Thought they were good all night

3. It’s crazy how good some broadcasts are and how annoying some are. Really enjoyed the graphics the blazers had

4. Wemby’s IQ is already insane and to me that’s what separates him from the rest of the rookies in this class. The other rookies are skilled but Wemby sets up the team or knows advantages on the floor better than a ton of teams, and it’s not being spoken about a lot at all.

5. Lotta class from these broadcasters. They were giving Timmy a lot of love.

6. Great breakdown by him. If Cedi cuts to the top of the circle clearing his defender from the weak side of the court, Wemby has his man sealed high and can easily cut to the rim or kick out to the corner if he gets the pass. It’s almost a gimmie. I loved that instant analysis of the play. After a couple of weeks of shitty opposing broadcast teams these two were a breath of fresh air.

7. Being a pro in Europe really paid dividends. Our youth system is AAU trash. Our NCAA system is very hit or miss because recruiting is the top skill a coach needs to succeed.

8. I think only Tre, Cedí, and McDermott are the only guys with comparable bbiq.

9. Vassels court vision is on Stevie Wonder level.

10. 10-15 years from now Wemby on a podcast ”Yeah my rookie year they didn’t know how to play with me. They was putting a guy shoots one handed free throws as a playmaker and point guard…”

11. Wemby’s experience in the French league should not be overlooked. He probably has more experience with offensive systems than a lot of his teammates.
