Other Sports....non hockey

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Well, you can't say he is a quitter... or that he'll rollover to societal pressures of normal conduct. He'll continue to be flippant and crawl out of the wreckage unscathed.

Tiger don't change his stripes.

Wembanyama is sick.

He does everything well but his shooting range for a man that size is uncanny.

Soft hands at the rim as well.

A terror defensively.

Blocks shots ... :D

He will put on even more muscle the next couple of off seasons and be unstoppable.

Because 50 points in 26 minutes isn’t unstoppable already?

I didn’t realize he’s 7’4”……wild how a guy that tall can move like that.

He’s only 235lbs. At 22 years of age I’m not sure he adds much more mass. Probably tops out at 245.

Let me know when hes 50 in 26 night after night.

He's still a tad slight for the post season when whistles get pocketed and he gets bounced about more for my liking (Quinn Hughes).

Needs a bit more strength.

245 - 250 might do it yes.

Agree he needs to bulk up a bit, but that frame is slight to start with so not sure how much more he can carry. Yes Mëds, 7"5" with an 8' wing span.

What I've noticed lately when teams try to play him physical is he'll go straight at the guy and take the hard offensive foul while flattening the defender. He'll create space for himself from then on.

What I find amazing watching him is he may look like he's having an off night offensively but the stat line still reads 20+ pts, 12 rebounds, 2 steals and 3 blocks while he's drawing the double and triple teams his team mates are dropping 25-30 pts. A few games ago they had five players over 20 point on the night.

Watching his defense is just amazing. They way he can cover from the three point line to the rim is frightening. It's reminiscent of Larry Robinson on the Habs D where the offense went out of their way to avoid him.

That Washington clip above is an old clip.

This what he did the other night. That block where the Heat went underthe rim for the reverse and Wemby followed to get his hand over the ball is incredible.
This is the play his team mates site as the moment they knew how special he could be. Rookie Wemby goes to the rim against two time MVP Giannis. Alien vs Freak
As Donny says, look at what Luka has been doing of late carrying the Lakers on his back.

The around the rim stuff is rather meh for me when I look at his height and reach. But his shooting range, as Donny pointed out, is otherworldly. I’ve never seen that before in a guy that tall.

It’s also impressive how he can adapt to contact on drives. Many a stork gets pushed around and becomes futile on their efforts when they get bumped.
