Damn Chet looked impressive today. OKC got next. SGA already a superstar. Best two way guard in the league. And I have no doubt Chet will be a superstar too. With the amount of assets OKC already has this team can be dominant for a long time.
Already so balanced and still a million picks to work with/trade... its insane. Imagine if they get Poku up and running. They genuinely could win 3 championships in the next 5 years.
I been following this kid since he was a junior in highschool. I never saw anything like him. He is a butter.smooth guard in a 7'1 body and insane competetive toughness. People were saying "won't make it NBA....too skinny", but I always knew he would be special. He's always been under rated and all he has done is win and exceed the expectations. And like Larry Bird or Tom Brady, he a stone cold winner.
Chet’s defensive game tho is crazy I wouldn’t compare him with dirk and durant. Maybe offensively but not defensively holmgren is crazy on defence he almost had a triple double with blocks.
@idontlikeair2044 this is why I think he can be better than KD in OKC... and that is a scary thought (knowing how historically great KD was and still is).
Definitely, and you can tell he really worked on his body and functional strength during the year he missed. A guy with that build will always be skinny but you can still build great functional strength and coordination.
Victor is Walmart Chet. He only gets the hype cuz of his height. Chet is all the good of Victor but just a tiny, tiny bit shorter, better, smoother and much higher IQ. Wemby goofy, turns over alot, makes bone head plays, misses a ton, and ain't helping his team win. If Wemby was 7 feet vs 7'4 no one would really care....we just never seen a guy that was that tall and had hairs like skills, and owing to that became an internet celebrity. Chet was always better tho and if you watch their amateur career this seemed obvious. Tonight just proved all of this. Chet is the future.
Yeah he’s more polished which is obviously due to him already being around the nba environment for a year where wenby clearly just got here. Love my pick team tho
@@ninogagliardini5674 they both play 30 minutes pg and wemby has 6 more shots per game? Steals are virtually the same don't be pedantic. All his shooting splits are way less efficient than chets, who also has better assists and +-.
Me even being a Warriors fan my whole life. You got to set your bias aside and really appreciate the greatness of Chet unfolding before us...Because these moments create his story. He really tapped into his True potential as a player putting on that display. I can only see this adding to his confidence so we are going to see how he mentally handles these situations moving forward...this shot brought me back to the Seattle Supersonics when they had drafted Kevin Durant and he hit a buzzer beater in his rookie year from almost halfcourt in Atlanta against the Hawks in double OT. This year will be the year of Victor (2023 #1 Draft Pick) and Chet Holmgren(2022 #2 Draft Pick). Also I see some light casting out from under Chet. And the crowd and media being sighted more on Victor due to the fact we forget we missed the whole "Rookie Year" of Chet Holmgren(2022 #2 Draft Pick) due to an injury in a Pro-Am game laterally against Lebron and forgetting Chet Holmgren. This is technically his "Rookie Year". So I see this as an advantage. The only thing questionable is if he can remain healthy. I know Victor Wembanyama has been doing a lot to counteract injuries with his trainer. I see Victor good. And Chet. Stay Healthy. 36 pts. 10 Reb. and 5 Assists. Amazing performance to both teams. Congratulations to Chet tapping into his true potential and still growing.
If Thunder can keep this starting line up together and they stay healthy they could be serious championship contenders as soon as next year. I didn’t know Holmgren would be this good this soon.
@@irvingzeistman9828probably but OKC has a lot of assets/future draft picks . Nobody can stop Jokic he’s the best player in the world but OKC could potentially make a trade for a big that matches up decently if they have to move Chet to the 4. They could essentially let Jokic go 1 on 1 and average 40 but lock up everyone else on the Nuggets.. in a year 2 not this year.
Seems something big happens when Chet and Wemby play on the same night. These 2 didn't disappoint from an individual performance standpoint. OKC simply has more talent and looks on track to make the playoffs.
He is different... Reminds me so much of KD... little muscle mass, some strengh, msturity and we have an MVP candidate... OKC built this the right way.
@albaraaa I'm talking 4-5 years from now. ROTY is already between he and Wemby. He doesn't need all that for the award. They give out that award to the Rookie with the best stats across the board. Everything else I said is where ALL NBA, MVP mentions start perculating.
That turnaround shot to tie the game in the clutch was so difficult 😮 Chet is going to be a monster in this league. Already seeing flashes of how good this kid will be in the coming years.
He's like Durant meets Marcus Camby meets shades of Bill Walton. He's also putting on 5 pounds of muscle since the season started. When he gets to 230 the league will be in trouble because he's already adding new elements to his game. He's already an elite rim protector the fact he can knock down the 3's, pull-up for a jumper, and run the court at 7'1 with a 7'6 wingspan is crazy.
@@samuhggg55I would prefer Chet but I would rank AD a little higher just because he’s been there done that. Really just depends on health and availability. I like Chet taking high percentage shots and getting to his spots, often times AD just stands in the corner.
That play at 2:45 how he can just smoothly run the floor alone at 7 foot and his team is 100% confident on that fast break, that ability in itself for a center is great.. its the little things that can be huge when they count. The dude is just gonna be a boss all around... no weakness in his game that I can see.
The Chet-Wemby media/fan rivalry thing reminds me of CP3 and Deron Williams back in the day. It was always touted as an either/or thing, which was so dumb because they were both sick at the time.
For real tho. I like chet's consistenct efficiency over wemby's streaky highs, but damn, wemby really be doing alien stuffs on the court. I've seen KD do what chet do, but I've never seen anything like wemby.
Yep. He has a better handle and way higher IQ too. He is just a superior hooper but all the hype went to Wemby as he is 7'4, a tiny bit taller than Chet at 7'1, and became some internet meme celebrity. They both similar in so many ways but Wemby is like the Walmart Version of Chet, a lesser version of the same thing.
they hated him a lot ever since college, soooo many guys were calling him a bust guy, its not even funny, I knew he would be nice in the league, but everyone argued he would be bad, or get injured and benched every time, it was disgusting how they treated him, he needs to win a ring in his career
Hate to say it, but like in boxing, alot comes down to race. Chet is like Tyson Fury and Wilder like Wemby: Chet better but don't "look"like your typical super star athlete, where as Wilder like Wemby - good athlete, freakish abilities but sloppy and not as good as Chet. The guy is the best prospect in ages but constantly being belittled, written off and shat on. When he smoked Curry in his camp that went viral, all the Curry fan boys started hating on him too 😂. They got mad at him as he is so talented and played good ball....weird. Wemby just so hyped owing to his unprecedented tall height while having guard skills like Chet, but in reality Wemby is like the dollar tree version of Chet. Wemby makes so many errors, much worse shooting percentage but ball hogs so his scoring stats inflated, and he don't help his team win. If Chet was black and 7'4 and Wemby was white and 7'1, everyone would be acting different and we all know it.
Not only a winning team but making his team win. Without that three to ight they lose. Even when he left the court for a break his team was up by 4 then went down by 6, and from there it til late game before they went ahead again. Just him being on the floor changes everything.
I feel NBA scouts/media are all followers. They don’t have their own opinion. To say they’ve never seen a player like Wemby tells me they’re not watching anything but the NBA and when there’s a buzz around one player, they run with it. Chet is clearly the same caliber of player.
He should be the ROY, but it's gonna be another Melo/Bron thing with the Wemby hype. Only thing Wemby is better than Chet is Defensively, but Chet is no slouch himself.
Chet better on D. Wemby just slightly taller. That's it. Chet js better everywhere to be honest, better handle, shooter, play maker, more clutch, and a winner. If Wemby 6'11 no one would care. He is a.gimmick because of his two extra inches of height he has on Chet. Both are very rare tho,.7+ footers that were trained guards.
@@mikerelva6915He’s not better on defense in fact it’s the opposite and Wembanyama just edged him out with 8 blocks for a rookie, Handle is arguable, you’re only saying shooting because you heard somebody else Chet is more efficient, Wembanyama also draws more attention from defenses to create more looks for his teammates so he’s the better playmaker, clutch is debatable and Chet plays for a better team
Wembanyama doesn't have SGA and Giddey to set him up but look at the difference between OKC last year vs this year. Holmgren is leading the ROY in my books.
Chet is gonna be what everyone thought Kristaps porzingis was gonna be if he stays healthy. The talents off the charts and that turn around 3 at the buzzer to tie was ridiculous. He’s gonna be really good for awhile as long as he stays on the court..🤷♂️🤷♂️
@@mshat18 I’m not saying that kristaps is bad but he’s the third option on that team. Again not bad and he’s a very good player, but after his rookie season people were elite all star unicorn could be top 10 2 way player for years to come and he probably would’ve been if he stayed healthy. He’s still a very good player and he’s exactly what Boston needs but he didn’t necessarily live up to the loft heights a lot of people were predicted for him after his first few seasons sir. But that’s only my opinion we all entitled to one👍💯💪
It is so annoying to me how clear it is that Chet should be ROTY right now, but knowing that, regardless of how much he deserves it, Wemby will get it because of popularity
Wemby is better... Chet wouldn't score 10 points on the spurs trash team. Meanwhile Wemby is still averaging more points than Chet while Wemby faces double teams unlike Chet.
@@jackhulme3004 which makes it even better, averaging 17.1 ppg to wemby's 19. 3 while having far less attempts, doesn't that make him better? If he were the 1st or 2nd option like wemby wouldn't he average all star number?
@@nndayo6408 Chet would not be as efficient on the trash Spurs team. Wemby is literally getting double teamed already unlike Chet. Imagine if Chet was the main focus getting double teamed. Ain't no I assure you he would not look as polished. He a good player but y'all will see the difference once Wemby gets solid teammates around him. Put Wemby on the thunder team and they would arguably be ready to win a championship this year.
"36 Points 10 Rebounds and 5 Assist ago, our fathers brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.” - Chet Lincoln
Not to make it about race, but with Chet, Herro, and possibly in a few years with Cooper Flagg, it’s cool to see white American hoopers making some noise.
Impossible to say whos gonna be better between him and wemby, comes down to injuries and the way they develop over time, but crazy to have 2 players like this in one draft class. We're definitely going to see more shooting/dribbling big men in the future, but the genetics on these over 7' guys is crazy
they will both be great, people who said chet would be a bust guy before being in the NBA showcases that no one knows basketball, or understands the game well, or have high ignorance and joins a hype train, here's the proof
Agreed. Chet got hurt because he had the balls to take on LeBron one on one. When I watched him in college he was skinny and the upperclassmen tried to push him around but he was a fighter and a competitor and wouldn't give up his ground. I knew right then that he'd be fine in the NBA.
I remember people saying he wouldn't do well in the league,he'd be bullied by bigger players he'd wash out..esp after the summer league game vs Keny Lofton..where are those people now????????????
Alot of Wemby haters in the comments lol. Why can't yall just appreciate Chet for his great performance tonight without trying to put down another Rookie.
All i can say is .WOW! Ive been disappointed since KD left. But this feels a lot like the 2011-2012 thunder team. It's early in this season but looking good so far.
As an American I obviously am gonna root for the American guy. Bc a lot of the best players in the world right now are European/foreign and I want us to stay on top.
@@tuckerchisholm1005 I get that, but the reality is that the US can't inevitably be at the top. There's talent from all over this world all coming together in the NBA. That's the beauty of it all. The more competition the better players representing this sport that we all love at the very highest level
Chet definitely needs to put on some weight, as his frame scares me. Im not sure how he will play against a physical big like Jokic or Embiid, but his skill set is scary good. If he can stay healthy and put on some muscle, he will be top 3 big in the league for sure, potentially #1
It’s really amazing how one player can change the entirety of the game. Chet was their missing piece from last year. Glad he finally played!

@@mikerelva6915He’s not better on defense in fact it’s the opposite and Wembanyama just edged him out with 8 blocks for a rookie, Handle is arguable, you’re only saying shooting because you heard somebody else Chet is more efficient, Wembanyama also draws more attention from defenses to create more looks for his teammates so he’s the better playmaker, clutch is debatable and Chet plays for a better team
@@ThemegatrolllWembanyama has a noticeably better handle. Do people even watch games?
Holmgren and Wemby taking the NBA to a new reset. I like it alot.
Guy’s not worried about ROTY race. He just concentrating on getting as many Ws as possible
Looking at that game tying shot, it looked just like Thunder KD vs the Mavericks!
Wembanyama doesn't have SGA and Giddey to set him up but look at the difference between OKC last year vs this year. Holmgren is leading the ROY in my books.
Guys that tall that can shoot like them don’t need to be set up😂😂😂
most unbelievable shot
This boy is very good
Chet is gonna be what everyone thought Kristaps porzingis was gonna be if he stays healthy. The talents off the charts and that turn around 3 at the buzzer to tie was ridiculous. He’s gonna be really good for awhile as long as he stays on the court..🤷♂️🤷♂️
Uhh KP is awesome when he’s healthy. Probably going to win a ring this year as well.
@@mshat18 I’m not saying that kristaps is bad but he’s the third option on that team. Again not bad and he’s a very good player, but after his rookie season people were elite all star unicorn could be top 10 2 way player for years to come and he probably would’ve been if he stayed healthy. He’s still a very good player and he’s exactly what Boston needs but he didn’t necessarily live up to the loft heights a lot of people were predicted for him after his first few seasons sir. But that’s only my opinion we all entitled to one👍💯💪
Chet and Victor the new Magic and Larry !
He's like a modern tim duncan already. No fancy dribbles, efficient and plays good defense
Hes a bad man for sure
That last shot is a beautiful thing
The NBA is really in the midst of change with guys like Wemby and Chet
Chet is so great that Victor will win the ROY.
It is so annoying to me how clear it is that Chet should be ROTY right now, but knowing that, regardless of how much he deserves it, Wemby will get it because of popularity
Wemby is better... Chet wouldn't score 10 points on the spurs trash team. Meanwhile Wemby is still averaging more points than Chet while Wemby faces double teams unlike Chet.
He's far more efficient than wemby, and I'm a huge fan of efficiency, which is why my favorite player is jokic.
Remember to do the NBA poll on my page again...
WemBUST is goofy
better team with better passers. less expected of him so he takes less hard shots.
@@jackhulme3004 which makes it even better, averaging 17.1 ppg to wemby's 19. 3 while having far less attempts, doesn't that make him better? If he were the 1st or 2nd option like wemby wouldn't he average all star number?
@@nndayo6408 Chet would not be as efficient on the trash Spurs team. Wemby is literally getting double teamed already unlike Chet. Imagine if Chet was the main focus getting double teamed. Ain't no I assure you he would not look as polished. He a good player but y'all will see the difference once Wemby gets solid teammates around him. Put Wemby on the thunder team and they would arguably be ready to win a championship this year.
Accuracy and shot selection is best
"36 Points 10 Rebounds and 5 Assist ago, our fathers brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.”
- Chet Lincoln
Bro if he goes 50-40-90 you gotta give him ROY no matter what Wemby does
00:57 did he really do “too small” gesture on CP3 lmao😂
Not to make it about race, but with Chet, Herro, and possibly in a few years with Cooper Flagg, it’s cool to see white American hoopers making some noise.
No one replicates KDS game like Chet Holmgren
I'm seeing some very nice basketball IQ from this guy ngl
Impossible to say whos gonna be better between him and wemby, comes down to injuries and the way they develop over time, but crazy to have 2 players like this in one draft class. We're definitely going to see more shooting/dribbling big men in the future, but the genetics on these over 7' guys is crazy
Chet was drafted a year before Wemby.
@@MarquisVegan oh lol yeah I'm a dumbass. I just forgot cause he sat the year out
@@FrogToadBug Lol it's all good bruh... least you know now.
Where are the overtime highlights?
From what I've seen so far Chet has more dog in him than Wemby. Doesn't mean he'll end up better but that's just what I've seen so far.
they will both be great, people who said chet would be a bust guy before being in the NBA showcases that no one knows basketball, or understands the game well, or have high ignorance and joins a hype train, here's the proof
Agree Wemby is soft
Agreed. Chet got hurt because he had the balls to take on LeBron one on one. When I watched him in college he was skinny and the upperclassmen tried to push him around but he was a fighter and a competitor and wouldn't give up his ground. I knew right then that he'd be fine in the NBA.
why did Wemby own Chet in the fiba world cup final then and Wemby nearly 2 years younger, chill
@@futurehofer1564owned?, who won the mvp in that tournament?
I remember people saying he wouldn't do well in the league,he'd be bullied by bigger players he'd wash out..esp after the summer league game vs Keny Lofton..where are those people now????????????
Abe Lincoln ballin 🪙
If I could go back in time I would travel back to 1860 for the soul purpose of asking Lincoln if pineapple belongs on pizza.
Chet and SGA: is this the new Marbury-KG for OKC?
Is Holmgren eligible for ROY Because of Injury last year?
Yes
Alot of Wemby haters in the comments lol. Why can't yall just appreciate Chet for his great performance tonight without trying to put down another Rookie.
people are smooth brained baboons these days 💁🏿♂️
That's amazing
Whos better SGA or Fox? Those 2 seems to score at will against the competition
yall see how shai creating looks for him ? if victor gets a real playmaker on the spurs, scary hours 😬
Chet vs the Chef, it did not dissapoint.
All i can say is .WOW! Ive been disappointed since KD left. But this feels a lot like the 2011-2012 thunder team. It's early in this season but looking good so far.
With this young core the thunder will compete for many years to come.
Incredible
Chet is the future. Way more excited to see his development than Victors tbh
As an American I obviously am gonna root for the American guy. Bc a lot of the best players in the world right now are European/foreign and I want us to stay on top.
@@tuckerchisholm1005 I get that, but the reality is that the US can't inevitably be at the top. There's talent from all over this world all coming together in the NBA. That's the beauty of it all. The more competition the better players representing this sport that we all love at the very highest level
your future looks like an abe lincoln zombie..
what a good looking 3 where no one can guard haha
OKC is gonna go far in the playoffs this season
Everybody just became option 2,3, & 4😂
Chet definitely needs to put on some weight, as his frame scares me. Im not sure how he will play against a physical big like Jokic or Embiid, but his skill set is scary good. If he can stay healthy and put on some muscle, he will be top 3 big in the league for sure, potentially #1
