    Guy's funny

    'Evan Mobley is the all time worse in every department version of Victor Wembanyama' practically meaning he just looks like Wemby and Will Smith.

    The Knicks present serious match-up problems for SA. That big, strong, versatile frontline is going to wreak havoc on both sides of the ball...including guarding the perimeter. KAT can bring Wemby out. Brunson is a serious closer. Presently, NY is the better TEAM. Harper and Castle are going to be GREAT players, but are still so young.
    OKC would have been a tougher series for NY.

    KNICKS in 5 or 6

    I would say yes you are.

    Victor's presence in the paint is key to allowing the Spurs to relentlessly pressure the ball on the perimeter. He is the main reason their defense is so elite. He already has more defensive gravity than any player in NBA history. The guy is a walking freak show from a video game. His mobility at his height is not natural.

    On offense, if averaging 27/10 on 48/40 shooting against OKC doesn't make him their heavy lifting workhouse on offense, I'd like to know what would meet your criteria. His gravity on offense is growing to such an extent that it may match his defense down the line.

    The Spurs 6'6 and under brigade plays very athletic and physical on both ends and is hitting 3s at a decent clip. But their team 100% revolves around Victor in every way.

    I would've assumed Tottenham because of the name but they wouldn't have much conversation in thr trophy department. I guess its the French connection.

    Should be an interesting series, hopefully Mitch's hand good to go or at least they have enough toradol to get him through each game. Can't do it without Mitchy

    Can Wemby and Castle stifle the juggernaut with their Defense?

    yeah, ngl, that infuriates me. Akeem destroyed the defending champion Lakers in the WCF, 4 games in a row after game 1 loss. I remember Pat Riley saying after game 4, we didn’t know he was this good.

    I mean, 31, 11, 4 blocks and 2 steals per game. Sampson was 20ppg.

    I guess they wanted to stop at 5 players, but Kareem was MVP of the league when Magic was a rookie.
