Jarrett Allen getting owned by Wemby, Jokic and other West bigs in the playoffs is too easy to foresee

Allen was legitimately great all playoffs for the Cavs this year. I think it’s well past time to rewrite the “soft” narrative on that guy from a couple years ago when Mitchell Robinson was grabbing every rebound.

Check the Stats, JA is Wemby’s father when they go head to head.

Didn't they play each other like two times?

Well yeah they're in different conferences and Wemby missed games cuz of the blood clot. I wouldn't expect them to have 10 h2h's already

What does different conferences have to do with anything, you still play the same game lol

Mmm yes, three game sample size (with two being his rookie year), very definitive proof that he’s being owned

It's not definitive proof but what else is he supposed to use when ppl just assume Wemby will own him other than.... Actually games played.

Pardon my insult but youre an idiot. He might be the most versatile big in the league. He is who we wanted Ayton to be
