This Choking Sign In A SoHo Cafe Featuring Wemby Is Art At Its Finest

I know that this phrase gets thrown around about everything these days, but someone needs to buy this poster and hang it in the Louvre! Think of all the French throats that don't stand a chance if piece of croissant goes down the wrong pipe as they admire the finest art in the world. Well, in steps the basketball savior of France, who gagged up the biggest lead in NBA Finals history, missed huge free throws down the stretch, and did things like this in the biggest moments of the biggest games on the biggest stage of his sport.

I couldn't log on to Twitter for days without seeing Chet memes after he completely vanished for the Thunder. Yet Wemby was still being propped up as the golden child on that same platform while giving away Finals games and acting like a scumbag the entire series. Luckily, #somethings are bigger than sports and Wemby's comical shortcomings potentially saving a life is the perfect example of that. Hell, Wemby has been painted as such a cultured person by the media, there's a part of me that thinks he'd rather be the face of a life-saving maneuver like the Heimlich than the face of a soulless league like Adam Silver's NBA.
