NBA – Amid the deep crisis, Wemby’s old saying is causing a stir:
“It’s strange…

NBA Gregg Popovich et Victor Wembanyama

For the first time in his career, Victor Wembanyama is vegetating in the depths of the rankings…

After a great epic in the final of the French championship, the transition with Spurs must be difficult.

Moreover, the fans brought out an old statement from No. 1 on the series of defeats.

Before even setting foot on an NBA floor, Victor Wembanyama was treated like a huge superstar by fans and observers…

Everyone wanted to see what he was really capable of against the best players on the planet, so obviously, when he took the Spurs to two consecutive victories against the Suns, the fire was immediate.

The problem is that since then, San Antonio has suffered 9 consecutive defeats and is in penultimate place in the Western Conference.

Even worse, the young Frenchman seems to be particularly misused by his coach and his teammates, which doesn’t help the situation.

If he shows unfailing confidence in Gregg Popovich for the moment, how long will that last?

Victor Wembanyama cashes on tanking!

Because we must not forget that this is the first time in his life that Victor Wembanyama is playing in such a mediocre team.

Moreover, Internet users have just brought out an old statement from him on the subject of tanking, which fits perfectly with what the Spurs are doing at the start of the season. In December 2022, he wasn’t kidding about it.

Tanking? It’s a weird strategy. For me this is not something reasonable and I try not to think about it.

I also heard that the NBA was thinking about changing some rules to avoid this, but that doesn’t concern me.

If the Spurs are not really tanking, several elements could suggest that Gregg Popovich is not looking to win every match.

For example, the Jeremy Sochan experiment is clearly not bearing fruit, and yet he persists with this lunar idea.

Then, his lack of adjustments in close encounters is also a sign that he does not care about the results of his young players. But for fans, it’s not so bad:

Honestly, giving Wembanyama the ball 30% of the time is good tanking.

You lose, you develop him, and you might be able to draft a good point guard high in the Draft.

Victor Wembanyama doesn’t like tanking, and yet the Spurs seem to be heading in that direction at the moment.

How long will he trust Gregg Popovich if nothing changes? The question must arise in Texas.
