Wemby Drawing A Statue In A NYC Park Without A Care In The World Is A Tough Look Down 0-2
Oh boy.
Now sadly, in this day and age of the internet, you always have to worry this is
A- a real video and
2- a current video
But all signs are pointing to this being both of those, and ohhhhhh man is this a tough scene.
I understand that guys unwind in different ways, I was alerted to a player in this series being at Carbone last night with his family. I'm sure some loser on the internet will say they shouldn't be doing anything but prep and practice, but they are human beings, guys got to eat, guys can go for a walk outside but I do think there's a line of optics and players need to know how things are going to look. Going to a park to paint is an interesting look as a superstar with your back against the wall down 0-2 on the road. Now he's still playing well overall this series averaging 27.5 and 10.5 but it's been the clutch moments that have been a MASSIVE problem.
So to know in this day and age someone is going to film you, that you will be sitting in the park with what looks like zero care in the world is a hell of a decision. Fans would likely be losing their minds, I would be if it was one of my guys. On the flip side, Michael Jordan famously went to Atlantic City during a major playoff series, so sometimes shaking out the kinks or changing the vibe is exactly what a superstar needs to start getting the breaks to go their way. Time will tell with Wemby the rest of this series, but being in the park painting, after being seen yucking it up in the tunnel is a lot to overcome for the young star.
Pressures really on now Wemby … let's see how you perform.
Oh … hit the fucking music.
