The drive from El Segundo to Intuit Dome is 15 minutes. That's the Lakers road game.
Wemby is incredible. He will have the best peak in NBA history. We have never seen a big man with this skillset. I knew he could shoot before he got drafted, but I never expected him to be like this. He shoots high volume 3s and has decent efficiency. Hes still only 20, he will only get better. Then there’s the incredible defense and paint domination. Plus that Kobe/MJ type mentality to compete and he the best! His game really doesn’t have much of a weakness besides his own mistakes sometimes and his team being inexperienced. The only thing that could stop him at this point is injury. Players his size have a bad history of injury, but Wemby seems to be avoiding that pretty well so far. Would be a shame to see injury derail his career, so let’s hope that doesn’t happen.
Bontemps really needs a spot on pardon the interruption rofl
These guys messing with each other is part of the point
i domt understand why the celtics have this mile long leash that they can just keep losing games and no one blinks an eye
Bontemps must not have had a lot of friends growing up, & we all are witnessing why.
averaging 40 minutes a game in december is wild lmao
Knicks got 2 less win than the Celtics with a brand new roster…yet they pick apart the Knicks schedule 😂😂😂😂
Time to go and get the Alien his #2.
Did Wemby score in n crunch time??😂
Bontempts being loud and dead wrong about Bridges was my favorite part of the pod. 😂 Bro swears his opinion is the one above all.
It's a shame they changed the All-star format. Wemby is coming in competitive.
Bontemps’ hate for Wemby hype is baffling. I don’t think he hates Wemby, but he absolutely hates any type of hype that comes his way.
Knicks defense used to stink vs bad teams at the start of the season too. Its not a product of the schedule
To all the people complaining about Tim bontemps, you realize that your comments are part of the reason that he is on the show. 🙂
Bontemps is a fart face.
FINALLY NO LAKERS OR DUSTY WARRIORS ON THE TITLE!!!!
What is the point of "didn't make it back on defense"? Im done. Hoop collective will no longer be in my spotify list.
wemby is gonna have the biggest contract of all time, maybe the spurs shouldn't look for a second star, but just making the roster better
Love this show 😂
Remember, last year Bontempt didnt have Wemby in his DPOY ballot. Not #1 or #2 or #3. Completely out of his ballot.
Him and Kelvin Pelton are certified Wemby/Spurs hater.
Who is the loser on the right?
Luka is not going to age well with his massive booze problem. Add that to his all time whiner attitude makes him unappealing.
Bontemps throws off this show emotionally. Dude is very arrogant in his opinion and doesn't always follow the convo well. I appreciate his work but he isn't the best verbal communicator. This is basketball…not ww3. 😂
Anthong davis is having a better season than wemby…across the board. Per..rebounds..points..and 7'5 wemby is not scoring his points in the paint like antdog david. Wemby off the bench. Lebron,steph,and jokic gone start regardless. Kd also
