the hard truth is that if prime kmart played today with his skill set and athletic ability, he would basically have the effectiveness of a daniel gafford. when kmart played conventionally that's what bigs were taught to do, screen, block shots, rebound and post. which he did well. but now we got bigs like jokic, embiid.. mvps who are 7' but do everything on offense, pass, shoot, not just the 'conventional' big man skill set. kmart's impact would basically be the same as watching daniel gafford guarding porzingis (like in game 1), so yeah, you 7'3 tingus why you out there chucking 3s? lol. when you see something you don't understand, the default thing to do is try to box into something that you do understand - so for kmart his understanding of a big means fundamental big only. but what is harder to guard - seeing a post move done to death 10m times by others or a new move that's never been seen before? when you got a chance to be first in something and trailblaze you gotta be ready to take it to the naysayers that want to box you into normalcy.

I think it would benefit Wemby’s development if his coaches and trainers don’t put him in a box. The reason he was hyped immensely as a prospect was because for his size, he could do a lot of things. That’s what made him unique. Sure he will benefit from Hakeem’s lessons, Wemby already said during the season that he and Pop were studying films of players with great fundamental skills and footwork such as MJ, Kobe, Tim, Hakeem, and Kareem. If Wemby also wants to improve his handles, then let him. Jamal might also be teaching him how to defend shifty guards and maybe, he’s also learning a thing or two about playmaking. Pop did put Wemby sometimes as a PG in offense and a center on defense. JCrossover skills might serve him well in the long run especially in the modern era of basketball where it’s more positionless now.

Imagine Wemby doing the cross-behind the back hop-step into a back scratcher

[@user-zu6xh3ry5r]

Jamal is working with him on him dribble left, dribble right into a cleaner shooting form his jumpers and 3pts, passing for Ally's and works on Post and paint plays with Timmy.

Wemby need all skills!! Hakeem an Jamal skills will make him unstoppable!! Lets Go Spurs!!

[@JT_SOG_513]

That’s cold 🥶 Jamal Crawford handles 😮at 7’5”

[@AlexanderBraden1]

Everybody in the league got bout 4-5 yrs to get they championships in now....Prime Wemby bout to have a RUN.

You see someone in a wheelchair with their shoelaces untied, what you doing had me dying.lmao Brandon funny

[@Convisis]

Working with Jamal is great, they run big-small PnR with VW as the ball handler so anything that helps him as a playmaker is beneficial. KM is right, he needs that TD game and he does need work off the block too but his game and responsibilities are going to go far beyond that long term. Plus, mentorship from a player as mature as Jamal is always going to be helpful. For it.

[@spirit13the1st6]

POPOVICH ONE OF THE GREATS HE WONT BLOW THIS .

[@thompsonappliance3078]

I agree with Kenyon. At 7'5, he is making it harder that what he needs it to be. He also has aceess to tum duncan and david robinson. Two top 15 players of all times.

[@clemmons31]

Kenyonmartins word play 40 seconds in was fucking amazing… holy shit

[@clemmons31]

But the fact wemby is is about to be me at 7 fkn 11 …is crazy till research me …I’m a plantation purist at basketball holler at me man… praying right now

[@anirudhkaimal5127]

These videos freeze abruptly so many times! Not just this one at the end, it's been happening for a while now

[@Iconictales]

This will also help him with perimeter defence.

[@feezycali3613]

AGREE WITH GILLY P A BIT…. (EUROS BALL) WEMBY WAS PROBABLY A TIM DUNCAN IN HIGHSCHOOL, DOMINATING! FAST FORWARD, SO NOW WEMBY IS LEVELING UP DIFFERENT BECAUSE OF EARLY YEARS OF TIM DUNCAN BASIC STYLE

[@kingku1793]

Hes tall, lengthy, and light, but most of all, hes quixk on his feet, although hes not gonna be a primary ballhandler, him learning moves is gonna help him create space and then work from there

[@flyangel6594]

Some of these dudes are so old school, they want him to do the basics. We’re talking about wemby, he’s going for Goat status. Goats can do everything and anything

[@rickmason6157]

Hey Wemby keep being the first YOU!!!!!!!

[@wesbesttreacts4515]

the more versatile wemby is the better for both him and the spurs, if he gets an elite handle and jumpshot he can bassically play any position on the court which makes it a lot easier to sign free agents and build the team in general, theoretically they could sign a center like joel embiid or a small forward like kevin durant and wemby would be fine either way

[@brandonsmith302]

Kenyon with the seinfeld-style joke about shoes getting untied.

[@ts4u5]

He’s teaching him agility & balance with the ball. With His wingspan it’s some times he’s goofy with the ball in hand but that’s what Jamal is for. It ain’t like he wanna be a dribble dribble guy he working on the fundamentals
