Fun to see Wemby in person last night. He looked kinda dejected at times thou, some bad body language. Probably because his team completely missed him wide open several times in a row in the 4th.
Part of his growth needs to learn more aggression - he's very streaky with being aggressive. There were several times where he absolutely setup in the paint with a much smaller defender - that's when you just jump and go for it, but he was looking for kick outs, cutters, and cross court passes that would get tipped and stolen. Abuse the smaller defender when you're that deep, damn!
Joker abused his lack of physicality several times backing him down: dribble, bump, dribble, bump, layup. He doesn't have the size to absorb that shoulder bump. Still you can see a vision of what he can be once he puts on some strength and armor. My question is his body and game going to evolve like Giannis (more physical) or KD (I wanna shoot fadeaway jumpers a lot and I'm really good at it).
He's already a great instinctual defender with regard to his spacing and his length but hopefully Pop can coach him out of one really bad habit: he bites on fakes and jumps. He does not need to jump hardly ever due to his size. Especially not when someone is driving the lane and he rotates as a help defender. So many times Denver faked and Murry/Joker just threw themselves into his chest when he was in the air and got a foul.
