On this episode of "The Acquired Taste" host Mike Jimenez and producer Joe Garcia discuss various topics, including the experience of attending a comic convention and meeting Brie Larson, as well as their weekend plans. They also touch upon the recent Summer League performance of basketball player Victor Wembanyama. The show host Mike Jimenez does express his excitement about having Hector Ledesma, the head of Sports Tonight, as a guest to discuss Victor Wembanyama's impressive performance.

The hosts dive into Victor Weman Yama's Summer League debut and subsequent bounce-back game. They discuss how his first game may not have met expectations, but highlight his defensive presence and maturity displayed during the post-game interviews. They commend Victor for acknowledging his lackluster offensive performance and emphasize the importance of patience as he continues to develop at just 19 years old. The hosts analyze the improvements they observed in his second game, including better shot selection and decision-making. They praise his ability to create his own shot and predict a bright future for Victor in the NBA.

The hosts continue to discuss the significance of finding a teammate who can complement Victor Wembanyama skills and make the game easier for him. They envision a scenario where a floor general can recognize mismatches and feed Victor the ball in ideal scoring positions. The hosts mention the potential of Jeremy Sochan, a player known for his pick-and-roll abilities, as a suitable partner for Victor. They emphasize the importance of having a player who possesses good floor vision, can facilitate plays, and understands the nuances of the game. The hosts conclude by highlighting Victor's basketball IQ and the need for him to continue developing alongside a talented teammate.
