I've only caught brief periods of games with him.

Sometimes he seems completely ordinary, and sometimes he seems almost inhuman (offensively, defensively he's great).

He genuinely shoots too many 3s. He’s an ok shooter but a monster when facing, posting up, or finishing around the basket. The problem is he wants to play like KD instead of AD and Cuckovich is too old and useless to do anything about it.

His offensive skillset is more like a KG than a KD.

I think Wemby is what KG would have been in today's game. Only KG wouldn't have been taking all those 16-22 foot jumpers. He'd step back a few feet and develop an average 3-point shot. During his Boston tenure KG took 39% of his FGA's from 16-22 feet. He still shot 52.4% from 2 despite this.

Wemby is a taller KG.
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are dumber than that.

Wemby and Giannis. Who was the other?
