维克托·文班亚马（Victor Wembanyama）未经编辑的图片揭示了一个滑稽的视角
我大学时有个朋友叫杰瑞。有一天晚上，我们一起看篮球比赛，他漫不经心地插话道：“是啊，我曾经防住过沙克。”
房间里顿时充满了笑声。彼时，这位卫冕NBA年度最佳新秀正处于他最苗条的时期，但他7英尺的身躯仍然统治着NBA中最优秀的内线球员。相比之下，杰瑞身高5英尺9英寸，体重250磅。而且这可不是NBA球员的250磅——他上个万圣节还打扮成了麦当劳的“奶昔大哥”。需要说明的是，杰瑞甚至没有参加过大学篮球队。
很难想象一个身材矮胖的高中生能在德州高中篮球界对阵现象级球员沙奎尔·奥尼尔（Shaquille O’Neal）时做些什么，于是我们改变了他最初的说法。
“你可能当时也在场上，但你不可能‘防住’沙克。如果你想准确一点，你可以说你是高中篮球场上的‘炮灰’。”
看到一张5英尺8英寸的篮球运动员防守维克托·文班亚马的照片，我想起了那段往事。

在上面的推文中，两人的身高差距如此之大，以至于文班的头都被截掉了。
毫无疑问，文班是NBA乃至奥运会中最高的球员之一。他也正在成为比赛中最具统治力的内线球员之一。接下来的几年将会非常疯狂。
我不知道日本男篮主教练是怎么想的，居然派身高5英尺8英寸的河村勇辉去防守文班。

但考虑到19英寸的身高差距，文班是否知道有人在防守他都是个奇迹。
法国队以2胜1负的战绩获得B组第二名。
C组的比赛今天进行，并将最终确定总排名。

Open Thread: Caution- Defenders on Wemby are larger than they appear
Unedited images of Victor Wembanyama reveal a hilarious perspective
I have a friend from college named Jerry. One night watching basketball, he casually dropped into the conversation, “Yeah, one time I d’ed up Shaq.”
The room burst with laughter. At that particular time, the reigning NBA rookie of the year was as svelte as he would ever be, and still his 7-foot frame was dominating the best big men in the NBA. By comparison, Jerry was 5’9” and 250 lbs. And not 250 NBA pounds — he dressed as Grimace from McDonald’s the previous Halloween. To be clear, Jerry wasn’t even on the college basketball team.
The idea of a pudgy high school junior doing anything near the phenomenon that was Shaquille O’Neal in Texas high school basketball led us to alter his initial share.
“You may have been on the court, but no way you ‘D’ed up Shaq.’ You can say you were high school roadkill if you want to be accurate.”
Seeing images a 5’ 8” basketball player on Victor Wembanyama brought back that memory.

In the above tweet, the height differential is so vast Wemby’s head is cut off.
No doubt Victor Wembanyama is one of the tallest players in the NBA, and the Olympics for that matter. He’s also becoming one of the more dominant big men in the game. The next few years will be insane.
What the head coach of the Japanese national mens team was thinking sending the 5’8” Yuki Kawamura to defend Wemby is beyond me.
But with a height difference of nineteen inches, it’s a wonder Victor even knew he was being guarded.
France earned a 2-1 record and finished second in Group B.
Group C plays today and finalizes the overall standings.
