Insane stop.

Thought they were checking for goaltending at first

Yeah I can’t believe he got up that fast and high. Like I know it’s early in the season but hell crown in defensive play of the year lol.
Insanely great basketball has been played so far this season.

Twins just built like that.

If either of them had a jump shot they would be 1st team all-NBA.

Ausar has been workin on it

I hope one of them gets it! They're electrifying to watch on defense but when you get to the playoffs and they can be guarded by someone sagging off them into the paint it can be a rough watch.

Yeah, hey have to handle the ball as a point forward more if they arent going to get a knock down shot. They both seem to be improving at that aspect of their game though. They dont turn 24 until Jan so still lots of time to grow.

Yup totally defensive demons
10. u/Adorable-News-9364 · 2026-10-24 04:30 UTC
Can’t check for uncalled goaltending
11. u/Frosty_Dimension5646 · 2026-10-24 13:14 UTC
Looking for any way possible to bail Wemby out

Meeting Wemby at the summit and winning clean is absurd.

20/12/4 and a game winning block

Looking here, you'd think he's a fucking bum

r/nba thinks basketball is just 2K where you just spam 3s and that’s the only important thing, disregarding defense, rebounding, playmaking, etc.
15. u/YummyYummyCock69 · 2026-10-24 04:40 UTC
And apparently they think playing defense is a crime and illegal.
16. u/truck_norris · 2026-10-24 05:08 UTC
Straight to jail
17. u/astrothemorkie · 2026-10-24 05:37 UTC
Block on 7’6” player? Believe it or not, jail
18. u/S0ggylemonz · 2026-10-24 05:36 UTC
They also think every player sucks
19. u/astrothemorkie · 2026-10-24 05:37 UTC
We used to have hype videos by Deer on the Rocks saying fuck r/nba. We need to bring those back

Big time players make big time plays 🤷♂️
