“Sensational.” Breaking down Giannis Antetokounmpo vs Victor Wembanyama 

People can say whatever they want about Giannis and his bag or lack thereof, but one thing you can never question is his heart. He lays it all on the line EVERY time. He plays like a homeless guy looking for his next meal. Just a straight killer.

Giannis and Wemby is the best matchup in the league no doubt

I wish Stephen A says the man's name correctly DAMN

Wem-ban-ya-MA. It's either disrespect or stupidity at this point.

Popovich a genius, 18 shots, 80 other shots taken by role players basically auditioning for next years team so he can go 5-150 and draft wemby a dame/iverson/d rose. Cuz when this boy fills out like Giannis did after his rookie year, and that 18 becomes 28 shots like the freak. . . .Lord help all other franchises.

“We should be salivating for these brothers to meet”💀

Wembys block on Giannis was like seeing Superman meet another Kyrptonian for the first time

I couldn't have said it any better Stephen A. For Giannis to go right at Wemby who has about 6 inches on him and that incredible reach. Got to tip your hat to him. The other day I was watching Giannis and he got his shot blocked like 3 times by the same player. But Giannis kept going at him. Scoring on the guy and even dunking on him. No fear.

Last night's game with Giannis and Wemby was amazing. Looking forward to round 2. We all know Giannis can ball; Wemby is a stud too.

Giannis is most definitely the MVP this year. Nobody has shot 60% + with his stat line in the history of the NBA. He doesn't even stat pad like Embiid.

You forgot Hakeem's rookie numbers. 20.6 pts, 11.9 rb, 1.2 stl, 2.7 blk while shooting 54% from the floor. If Jordan wasn't there, Hakeem would have won ROTY.

Agreed!!! That's what I loved about that Game, Giannis was attacking on every chance that he had, he was willing to challenge and Wemby also did as much as he could.

WembanyaMA, not Wembanyana !

WembanyaMa with AN M!

I agree 100% with Steven A… I never thought I would ever have said that 🤦 Wemby and Giannis bringing the world together

I am a Giannis fan (biased since I am Greek lol) but omg Victor is going to be a historic figure! Amazing skills and wish we could see those two teams and match ups in a 7 game series :)))

Bro giannis is incredible ! Wemby is out of this world I was so hyped during the game i loved it

Wemby and Giannis just ressurected the NBA excitement. Just like when Curry was shooting half courts...

I like Stephen on his own, No stupid fights, just heart, thank you brother!

Giannis is relentless, he doesn't let up. Wemby has his moments but Giannis is still the man.

this is the most ive ever seen stephen a embrace giannis wow

Great take! Love you man! keep it up! Wee are lucky to have such players in the NBA, it takes things from good, to exceptional, only by adding these 2 fellows in the mix!!! Gaiinis and Wemby, history in the making!!!

If they are planning to award Chet because of OKC performance this season they better award both of them because it would be unfair. Individually, Wemby is ahead of Chet.

It felt like a 1v1. Great play

Giannis is the new human highlight film every game he does something that makes you go dam how did he do that as for wemby he is a true 1 of 1 amazing what he can do at his size stars these days are so passive to go head to head that game was fun to watch

sorry more excited to watch Giannis vs Victor over Giannis vs Chet ...

Giannis is fucking crazy 🏀

I love chet as well, but if wemby had SGA he'd be averaging 25/10/4 with over a steal and 2.5+ blocks on a winning team.

Excellent points. Finally, Giannis get’s the laudable assessment that he should.

Giannis 🙌🏼👑

Giannis is great for the nba

Facts Stephen A, Giannis has Kobe energy. I don't care if it's a regular season game, I don't care if my shot isn't falling. I am gonna play my hardest, and if I have a bad night and got embarrassed on national television at least I gave it my all. He brings out the best from Embiid when they play each other, too.

truly these fans can say whatever they really feel about Giannis and his bag or lack thereof, but one thing you can never question is his heart. He lays it all on the line EVERY time. He plays like a homeless guy looking for his next meal. Just a straight killer.

Steven A. in this video is like a pastor who preach us the truth. Even the clothes and the background are right there.

They need to stop lying he is not 7'3 he's 7'5.... That one got me 😂

The fact voters and espn fixate on number so much shows how there is so much disrespect on Giannis, even though people praise him. THE EYE TEST is absurd how he plays the game. Constantly attacking, the spin move now with the euro step. Amazing. His MVP every year. People prioritizing 12 assists over 10. All these subtle stats… that’s not why fans go to games. To watch one extra point compared to next star. It’s HOW the game is played and HOW Giannis plays is box office ever single night.

That match took me back. That’s what we want to see!

And yet SAS still can NOT pronounce Wemby's last name correctly.

i love the fact that Stephen A mispells Wembanyama 90% of the times

This is going to be a good rivalry

Happy to see finally Stephen A. feels the same about the greek Freak as I always did. Just a pity the Bucks are still working on a better defense since getting Dame. Jrue's exit still hurting, imagine Dame and keeping Jrue, that would have been the deal.

Now that was basketball

Wondering what it would take for Stephen A to pronounce WembenyaMA correctly 😂

It so exciting to watch evolve 🇨🇦🇺🇸

Wemby is creating a lot of rivalries with everybody

Talent without heart Shakespearean tragedy 🇨🇦🔥🇺🇸

Wemby is not in "minutes restrictions", the Spurs are tanking. If Wemby played more minutes, they could win games, and that's not their goal right now. I know it sounds awful, it's true though

Damn.. not looking forward to hearing SAS talk about future matchups between Donchick and WembanyaNa 😅

preaching!

damn Stephen you couldn't be more on point

just then give ROY to the whole Thunder team and not just one player would make more sense...

Well put Stephen A!!

That game was a perfect example of why people love NBA Basketball.

0:27 Show the minutes played respectively in the recap.

It's in the Stars 🇬🇧🇨🇦🔥🇺🇸🌐

Wemby is yet more complete than any one in NBA. If he keeps safe, he Will dominate the league during long years…

this brother clearly didn't hear the announcer say "Oh MAMA WembanyaMA!"

Giannis got the win, but there is a young lion about to take over the pride. He just needs to eat more beans .

Great moment in big men😂😄🇨🇦🔥🇨🇦🇺🇸

excellent breakdown, now what happen to the pacers talk, they gotta get through miami

I think the most amazing thing of this match-up is that the rest of the Spurs managed a chance to take the W. It shows that they can rise to the occasion as a team in spite of their awful record. Most people would assume that game would be a blowout. My two cents.

Would be great if u d pronounce wemby s name properly at that stage 🙏

"I stood next to the brother, I came up to his damn belly."🤣

Dude still fucking up his name over and over Kinda hard to take this shit seriously when you can't even get the names right😄

Stephen A is too smart to keep mispronouncing wembanyama’s name

I'm gonna keep on calling him Stephem A Snith until he gets Wemby's name right.

Block of the year 👍

Yeah right Superstars mostly those playing on the same position should guard each opther no question. Not like that 2017 Finals where someone was avoiding SlimReaper at all cost. That same guy who s willing to guard any one apart of thoses who might embarrassed him in 4K. Who wonder shy this guy is so durable

Wembanya-MA, we got to get this right.

most of nba players are doing summer training together.. thats why

Stephen A is 100% right

I need a World Vs U.S.A All Star Game

well said. Not like Embiid vs Jokic last year.

Giammis Antetokunbo vs Victor Wembanyana was great

it took stephen A smith a full 4 years to finally acknowledge giannis as the monster that he trully is, after winning his first MVP... A near perfect performance vs a phenomemenal talent, a rookie but i guess it still counts.... lol

I ❤️ SAS.

Chet is in a better team tho, that's why on paper he looks better. while Wemby is playing in a rebuilding team. Pound for pound I got Wemby for ROTY.

You keep saying his name wrong. At least recently. Its not wembenyaNa its wembenyaMa

Holy.... those rookie stat sheet (5:35) is scary. As if you watch some kind of origin story...

I love Stephen A but he's killin me ! YAMA! YAMA! not Yana lol

Clever; SAS leaves out standout rookie centers from the era before they kept stats for blocks. Kareem averaged 28 pts and 14 rebounds as a rookie and won a chip his second year and was finals MVP. Do you want to hear about Wes Unseld as a rookie? What about Dave Cowens? What is superlative about Wemby is the hype, so far; can he win anything?

Love you Stephen but it's WembanyaMa

I can't take this dude seriously when he just kept saying WembanyaNa... If there's one rookie that as a NBA talking head you should definitely spend a few minutes to learn to pronounce his name correctly out of professionalism and respect, it's this freakin' kid. You can't even be bothered to do that? smh

KD has got heart. He now wants to join the Bucks FFS.

His name is “Wem-ba-nya-MA” and not Wembananya please make the effort Stephen A

Am I the only one that's bothered how he kept saying "wembyana" lol bro he's been in the league long enough where his name shouldn't be that hard to say anymore lol

Luka Donchic and Wembyana should call this dude Stephanie from now on

Mr. Smith, please pronounce his name correctly. Peace!

Stephen please it’s WembanyaMa not WembanyaNa 😃

In 26 mins yea..had it been 32 it may have another outcome. I love it though, we need Wemby for the long run if possible

Facts Le Bron killed it with his friendly approach

It’s Wembanyama not Wembanyana.

If the NBA brought back and allowed actual defense - and called all the insane amount of traveling carrying and illegal screens wemby would still have good rookie numbers, hell everybody's numbers would go down , what really is upsetting is today's players are so athletic and awesome- I would like to see them play in the NBA that used to exist- could today's players like wemby or morant or giannis score 20 plus on Rodman or laimbeer, could anyone guard jordon ,magic or bird , sadly you can't honestly say how good today's players could be in today's watered down NBA

if Stephen A. dont PUT THAT DAMN "M" back in Web-man's damn name 😂😂😂

Who the hell is Wembanyana?? These people can't even read now?

Brother you gotta put the 'M' at the end of Victor's name. Victor WembanyaMa.

It's WembanyaMa !!

it's Wembanya"MA"

WembanyaMA

The 2 guy that they struggle pronouncing the name 😂
