Insanity: We've Reached The Point Of Dumbass Hype Where People Are Saying It's A 'Disappointment If Wemby Is KD Or Hakeem'

I don't mean to attack the Brou Crew (still an all-time Barstool shirt) here, but what are we doing? We're actually saying out loud that if Wemby isn't a top-20 player in NBA history it's a disappointment. I know people say shit to say shit and go viral, but this is so over the top that I have no choice but to believe it's fake. The hype on this guy, while warranted, has gone out of control:

Yes LeBron got this hype. We can say we don't like the guy, but the hype was around him since high school. He had games on ESPN back when this was unheard of. He was on magazine covers with the headline 'Chosen One.' Yeah, I'd say that's the hype. 

Again, I think Victor is going to be awesome. He's going to be worth the No. 1 pick. It's not a hot take to say that by any means. He's basically someone we really haven't seen before when you look at his size, shot making ability, rim protection, however you want to describe his game. But there is the chance he doesn't work out. Sure, if he's Andrew Bogut or something like that as a No. 1 pick, it's a disappointment. But if he's Hakeem Olajuwon? That's pretty fucking good! It means you won a couple titles and have a Hall of Famer. 

I'll give the Brou Crew a chance to respond here. Maybe he listed those three guys because he played for another team? That could be it. It still looks weird when you see Hakeem rocking this

Let's all just take a breath here on Wemby. We don't need to say insane things just to say them.
