The Wemby/KP comp is interesting as they both look equally ineffectual in the post. Wemby looks to drive a bunch more, but KP might have done that in his Knicks days pre-injury as well. It seems like Wemby is more of a basketball junkie than KP and win or lose this series, he, his camp, and the Spurs need to get him some sort of reliable game in the post (no matter if that looks like a traditional big or Dirk) as well as varying up his spin-move on drives which help defenders are waiting for and are turning into easy turnovers. He's still young so I'm not worried about him yet.
And speaking of youth, Castle and Harper are the real deal. I hate to say it, but they make me want to be a Spurs fan. Even if it doesn't happen now, that trio is going to be a force.
I was writing this a couple of weeks ago - just imagine Wemby with his length operating like Dirk from the elbow. He wouldn’t even need to fade to be unblockable with his size.
He should get him and Holger as successors to his shaolin monks this summer and the NBA would be over.
