Welcome to Hoops Tonight presented by Fandool here at the Vol. Happy Friday everybody. I hope all of you guys had an amazing week and that you got big plans for the weekend.

2:34.0

We're just going to be hitting on three preseason games today. We're going to hit on Pelicans Bulls, our first time seeing Zion Williamson in over a year.

2:41.0

Lakers sons, another impressive performance from a Lakers team that a lot of people were pessimistic about going into the season. And then last but not least Cavaliers Sixers, our first taste of Donovan Mitchell with the calves and of James Hardin in his revenge tour this year.

2:57.0

I'm also going to hit on a couple of you guys's comments from the YouTube comments from the Victor Wemba Nyama and Scoot Henderson video yesterday. I really want to work hard this year to get you guys as involved and possible and have more back and forth. We got a lot of plans on that front. I'll keep you guys posted.

3:12.0

You guys know the drill before we get started. Subscribe to the volume's YouTube channel so you don't miss any more of our videos. Follow me on Twitter at underscore Jason LT.

3:19.0

So you get you guys don't miss show announcements. That's also where I drop NBA footage since I'm not allowed to use it here. That's a great place for you guys to see some visual aids for some of the concepts that I talk about on the show.

3:30.0

And last but not least, if you miss one of these shows and you can't get back over to YouTube to finish them, you can find them wherever you get your podcasts under hoops tonight.

3:39.0

So there were two main disagreements that I saw in my Victor Wemba Nyama and Scoot Henderson video yesterday. There were some of you guys that tried to give other examples of legitimate, you know, stretch bigs that were great rim protectors and there were two that were thrown out one that I disagree with and one that I do agree with.

3:59.0

But I think that Victor is going to be even another level above that. So a lot of people throughout Joel and beat and the reality is is he's just too low volume, you know, like he does shoot about three three pointers per game.

4:12.0

And he does shoot in the high 30s, right, like about 37 38% give or take a few depending on the year, but the reality is his teams aren't guarding him out there because it's a really low volume. If James Hardin and Joel and bead run a pick and pop, they're conceding that shot to try to take away things in the paint when guys are closing out on him.

4:31.0

They're closing out short preparing for him to attack that closeout. And the reason why is he's only taken three per game and he's not exactly lighting you on fire with them. That's three completely wide open attempts per game that he's barely making over a third of.

4:46.0

That's not a real stretch big. Also, when I'm talking about Victor Wemba Nyama and this concept of being a stretch big and rim protector, I'm talking about it within the role.

4:54.0

Obviously, and beat is 50 times the player that Victor is right now. So is Nickle Yochitz. So is Carl Anthony Towns or so many of the bigs around the league, but I'm just specifically talking about plugging a player into a role as a rim protector and as a stretch big a legitimate stretch big that teams would guard on the perimeter and be scared of giving up open shots to so there was one other one of you guys couple of you guys.
