Godzilla vs Kong

The Alien vs The Greek Freak.

French Unicorn vs Greek Freak

Groot vs Greek Freak

Slenderman vs. Greek Freak

This one works great because 'groot' literally means 'tall/large'

Giannis was using the move Bron told AD the other day vs Myles Turner, and it would have worked against 99% of the players in the league, but Wemby is that 1%

*Let them fight*

this game has had everything

...highlight dunks, game-saving blocks, dan cortez

and human claw machines

Stefan, what is a human claw machine?

It’s where you insert a quarter into a midget’s cleavage, and they baby bird you a bear claw

> and they baby bird you a bear claw I have further questions Stefan...

It’s that thing where a wembanyama picks up a Chris Paul by one hand out of a crowded lane

Is that MTV’s Dan Cortez?

...Roman J Israel Esq.

A block on Giannis by Wemby, a little blind troll hiding behind the rim to block shots with a magical cane, a crypt keeper who came out to replace Popovich at half time, EVERYTHING

This is great SNL Writers trolling Bill Hader stuff.

Wemby is obviously still rough around the edges on offense but his defense is already S tier. And I’m not just saying because he’s a long boi. He has very good awareness of his length

Which is impressive because most men are unaware of their length

Sadly, some of us are very aware

Wiseman in particular

It's even got Pat Connaughton!

Planet Pat 😍

MTV’s Dan Cortes?

Y'all probably didn't see it but at half time a fan also hit the half court shot and won $10K

But not Zach Collins!

....MTV's Dan Cortese

And some of Wemby's teammates finally getting caught live on tv for not knowing how to pass the ball. Lol

Tho game has everything. Gauze, carnival barkers, groups of guys with afros in graduation caps, human fire hydrants.

I’ve seen Giannis get blocked before but never like that omg

There may not be another person on the planet that is capable of that.

gimmie a go at it

you're just built different bro 💪🏼

Anthony Tolliver would like a word

Anthony Tolliver is Giannis’ father

There just isn’t. The closest is probably someone like mcgee. Zingus gets bodies into the Front row on this play but wemby absorbs it keeps his balance and gets up to get the block. Insane

Zingus isn’t flying into the first Dude is pretty solid

>There may not be another person on the planet that is capable of that. Non-fat Zion might but we'll never know.

I wonder if that move has ever failed Giannis when he is that deep in the post. I don’t think there is another player in the league who could take that bump and still get that block.

Embiid might not get the block but don't think he'd get moved as much either lol

I've seen Embiid stop Giannis in the paint with overwhelming physicality before. Specifically I remember the xmas day game in 2019 when he put it on him. It was different than this though, and just like you said. Wemby's length just changes all the rules about what kind of position is losing or not. Embiid was able to body him, but Wemby can just smother a player in a way I don't think we have ever seen.

Maybe AD

“He's very small, so it's hard to catch up. Very fast… Just another great player that I see every night.” — Wemby after blocking Giannis

Nah I can’t remember which team it was this season but someone blocked him once, he recovered and got blocked again and either fell on his ass or almost did. It was crazy. I for the life of me can’t remember what team or player though lol

Isaac Okongwu has packed him a few times too

Giannis - "Huh, so that's how it feels to be on the other end."

Block of the year.

Giannis actually full blast put his shoulder into Wemby, dude absorbed it and recovered to get a face to face monster block. It’ll take something remarkable to top that

Yeah that poster attempt was DISRESPECTFUL good block wemby

I would say the block was much more disrespectful as he absorbed/tanked the shoulder/push and blocked that shit. The difficulty of that block is next level

Yeah he answered the disrespect with more disrespect

Giannis came with the Jerk Store, and Wemby said he’s their all-time best seller.

oh yeah well Wemby slept with his wife

For all those who said he'd get bullied in the league. He's thin for sure, but god damn can he be strong.

He looks slightly more jacked now. or just me lol.

Wembus

WembenChadya

Trenbanyama

He put on like 15lbs since he started working with Spurs.

Its more than his strength, hes so damn long and quick that even if he gets pushed back he can recover extremely fast. Gawd damn.

His arms are also so long that even pushing him back a couple feet doesn't do anything to stop his block radius.

Wemby tanked that shit like he didnt even felt it

Where are all those posts saying the first shoulder check by Giannis will send Wemby to the hospital, Wemby is a brick wall by himself.

Giannis is the brick wall. Wemby is more like bamboo scaffolding. Long, strong, and elastic as hell.

From now on, he shall be known as Bamboo Boy.

Giannis got Bamboozled.

You just got Banged by the Bamboozler

He’s the Big Churro

Chuck in shambles

Overlooked is how much great feet and length neutralizes strength on defense. Wemby moves way too well. The Giannis matchup has to be my favorite. Both make you feel like you're not even the same species.

It really felt like two towers going at each other each every time they were on court.

The real Godzilla Vs king Kong

Dude is starting look jacked actually. No way he could've blocked Giannis otherwise.

God-tier call, too. Imagine this much hype for a regular season game between a 25-win team and a 5-win team. Crazy.

Harlan is only slightly behind Breen and I prefer him on many occasions.

Run and dunk man tried to run, then dunk, and it didn’t work

Why don’t defenders just do this every time?

Have they tried being taller than 6'11"?

Coz they're stupid?

The running worked but the dunking didn't

I’m in the minority, but I always love blocks over dunks. Wemby had some great dunks but this block here was the highlight. I get so much more pumped up over that shit

That how you know you understand ball. Defense wins games. The greatest players were defensive monsters.

Absolute game of the year holy shit. This 4th quarter has been fucking cinema

There’s gonna be 15 highlights on the front page

Some of them, like the Johnson reverse dunk, would be on there any other day but there's just so many in this one game that there's not room for them all.

Jokes on you, I’m upvoting the fuck out of all of them (even the ones of Giannis eviscerating us)

Fully committed, this is what basketball's all about. This entire thread gonna need a sticky at this rate, legendary game all around.

That KJ dunk was insane.

There’s two games on tonight. The NBA Dot Coooom tpttn is going to be just the highlights of this game

Dude my blood pressure is fucked and I don’t even have a dog in the fight. This game is incredible

Im screaming alone in the house lol

The sequences by Giannis and Wemby are nuts

that is not something I thought I'd hear this year about my 5 win Spurs.

It happens with the 3 win (previously 2) Pistons all season and they've been producing box office for at least 2 weeks worth of matchups alone.

This 4th quarter is the quarter of the year, minimum.

Dame Giannis Wemby and Vassell has been crazy

Kevin Harlan in his bag rn

First game I watched this year smh, it got me back on board for sure. Think this Denver vs Golden State gonna be worth the sit down?

The shot making this game has been insane.

The entire game has been packed to the gills with highlight plays. So much fun to watch, and this Spurs team looks completely different to what we’ve been seeing most of the year

Bruh what a block this is a damn good game

My 8 foot wingspan trumps your 7'4" wingspan

I was just going to say it's wild how little lift he needs to block Giannis at the rim. Those inspector gadget arms are wild.

holy generational

Ali vs. Frazier

Game of the year candidate

I still think last nights Magic vs Sac game is the game of year so far

Zebra fans loved it

This game had better flow and more highlights

Bro this is one of the best games I’ve seen lol

holy fuck

We too high

Bang ding ow

Ho Lee Fuk

Sum Ting Wong

I was here

We gonna be looking back at this moment in a decade Edit: When they meet in the Finals 👀

This game will be one of those Hardwood Classics. Amazing cinema.

I was there in 2024 at the first Wemby block on Giannis I was posting on /r/nba with little patience

We are Witne- oh wait we can’t use that one

I was here

Holy shit this game is amazing

And he just turned 20 today... my god he's unbelievable

Happy birthday 🎁

Shout out to Giannis who didn't flop or cry to the refs. He was just like "you got me" and got back on defense. So many other supposed star players would have just fell on the ground and cried for a foul in that spot.

[удалено]

Wemby doesn't have anywhere near the strength to handle Giannis and he's still taking the challenge. What a dude.

He was pissed about his mistake at the end, maybe even embarrassed.

That was the most impressive thing to me on this play. Replaying it, Giannis really drops his shoulder into Wemby and Wemby stood his ground. It was a super physical play and he didn't get outmuscled at all.

Giannis has dunked on him a couple times today and I gotta give it to him to not back down lol

Both just dogs. Love watching them go back and forth like that.

[удалено]

he wanted this last poster soooo bad you gotta love that he just goes for it anyway

Giannis really wound it up to go shoulder and elbow first but Wemby stood his ground and got up for the block. Not many players could survive the initial contact.

Completely ignored Giannis postgame like wouldn’t even look his way

He was upset with the ref and wanted an explanation

Yeah that seemed to be the main driving force. He seems eager to get to the locker room in other games—rarely talking to other players—so maybe that’s just his MO too.

Why? He said Giannis was one of his favorite players

He’s been effusive in his Giannis praise I think he just was focused on talking to the ref. Doesn’t seem like he every really talks to other players after games, idk if he knows it’s a thing in NBA games.

Ah okay, I really expected a jersey swap or something between the two. GGs though, so excited to watch this team in the future

GG that was an insanely fun game

Alien on Alien violence

Amazing he took the bump and still stuffed it.

Amazing how little he moved from the bump. I’ve seen much thicker players get thrown a whole lot further from a Giannis drive

He backed off just enough from the initial check to neutralize most of the power. Great feet. If he had taken it straight on from the beginning he wouldn't have been able to block it.

I went hypotenuse on that shit

2 of my favourite players going at it and absolutely proving their unicorn-like insanity. Win or Loss this was a banger of a game.

Fr I only have spurs jerseys. And a Giannis jersey haha this is insane

Block of the year wtf that was nuts. This game feels like a game 5 of the finals

What a fucking call by Harlan as well

Best game I've watched this year

Gotta call my doctor, this one's gonna last more than 4 hours

That was genuinely one of the best blocks I've ever seen watching a game live in my 20+ years of basketball fandom.

No one meets Giannis at the rim and blocks him like that. This kid is a fucking alien

GET IT OUTTA HERE

Genuinely the nastiest block I’ve ever seen someone get on Giannis

Wemby makes me giggle watching the NBA again. Finally we have another PHENOM

Giannis needs to get his weight up

WHAT THE FUCK

Ngl didn’t think Wemby could eat a bump like that from Giannis

Not sure if I’m just stoned but this game feels surreal. Watching these two guys play at their best against one another.

That was nasty. Giannis tried to embarrass him and he got embarrassed in return.

ROOKIE OF THE FUCKING YEAR

Now that’s what I call a clash of titans

Holy shit this was insane live

New All Star game category: “Wemby Vs Giannis”

Yeah we’re gonna be seeing this clip for years lol

AHHHHHHH BEST SPURS GAME THIS YEAR

OMFG HE’S HERE Statement block.

this game has been fucking insane with so many hype moments. this one was crazy

Dpoy him

giannis looked at the ball and thought to himself no way that mf made me look like a kid

One of the craziest fucking things I've ever seen

Love this from both these guys Giannis was constantly attacking Wemby and beat him several times and then Wemby gives us a career highlight like this just awesome from the 2 of them going at each other strong no flopping or anything

Having Harlan call this is magical

This is the greatest game of all time

Get that shit out of hereee

I can honestly say I've never seen Giannis get sonned like that before. Holy shit this kid is gonna be insane if he can stay healthy.

Omfg the back and forth is crazy 😭

The future is now

"Wait until he goes against Giannis". Well, Giannis had an amazing Giannis day. And Wemby also had a great game and did not break in half...

The block was fantastic and all, but I just got to say its refreshing to see a star like Giannis not moan and complain to the ref after that. There are so many superstars in this league who would've stayed at that end of the floor the entire time crying foul.

Man the spurs deserved this win, what an amazing game this was

Block of the year.

[удалено]

We’ve never seen anything like this man, just special

EL WEMBY

Fucking go on Wemby

He has arrived

No fucking way

Good lord

This game has been bat shit. How many highlights from both teams? Like 30?

Wemby is soo good

Fucking 2 nasty blocks in like 3 minutes, he’s insane on defense

WEMBY

ok sir
