That’s why he should be ROTY but Wemby has put up better numbers so if you’re just looking at box scores, he’s in the lead. I think either of them are deserving. If Wemby gets it, I won’t be mad. He’s been incredible. But I value impact over stats.
Man I wanted my Spurs to tank the year before to get Chet, we ended up with Sochan. If Chet would have gotten hurt like he did and the Spurs got the number 1 pick like we did. Wemby and Chet would have been crazy together on my Spurs.
Gonzaga fan here, you have to understand that Drew Timme was pre-season player of the year going into Chet Holmgren's 1 and done season at Gonzaga. At the start of the season, #1 Gonzaga dominated #5 Texas by just feeding the ball to Timme who scored a career high 37. Chet was a great teammate through that and we're all rooting for him in Spokane and hope his best memories are yet to be earned.
He not only is an excellent scorer and rebounder but he gives them what they desperately needed the most which was a rim protector. It's hard to even quantify how many shots he alters throughout a game and the number of points that adds up to. If you really watch the game and pay attention to the number of shots he changes it's a significant amount. He has completely changed the complexion of the team.
Tbh the people who think Chet isn’t good obviously don’t watch OKC Thunder games. It’s hilarious how Wemby fans blindly shit on every not named Wemby. It’s like when Lebron fans claiming he’s MVP as a Rookie.😂
Their willingness to just ignore the simple fact that Wemby is shooting an abysmal 46% from the field & 32% from 3 is wild… meanwhile Chet is shooting 54 / 39. If Chet was taking as many shots as wemby, he’d be averaging 25-6 points! Not to mention that wemby is averaging nearly 3.6 turnovers a night, to Chet’s 1.5 These are not slight efficiency differences. It’s night and day. Wemby is certainly a monstrous presence on defense… but so is Chet. On offense, if you’re goal is to actually win games, Chet is clearly just. More well rounded rookie. Ultimately, imo, it comes down to the mental/Decision-making department (when to shoot, when to move/pass for a better look, positioning, etc)… thousands of split second decisions… Chet already has “IT”… Wemby shows inconsistent flashes of “IT” Although, to be fair, Chet has an unfair advantage of spending an extra year studying from the sidelines. But it shows, BIG TIME. But people, especially on social media and UA-cam comments 🫣, for the most part, just type bird brained, childish one-liners This concludes my Ted talk. Why are you still reading this?
Wemby lives rent free in you Chet fanboys head lmao. Chet scored 6 points tonight and got bullied. Lmao Chet will never be on Wemby level and that is a fact y'all have to deal with.
Chet is heating up and fully coming into his role at the right time. Everyone says OKC is too young, but this team can make some serious noise in the playoffs if Chet keeps playing like this.
He’s my ROTY and I think he has best player in the league potential. We’ve never seen a center with his blend of shot blocking and shooting. He also plays like a 10 year veteran in his rookie season. The sky is the limit
@@jarrellfarr3963 first of all, I’m not sure what him starting off bad shooting means, those are still his percentages. His last 3 months which is 34 games, hes shooting 34% on 5.5 attempts which still isn’t good
I feel like Chet is just a winner, if you want stats and flash go for Wemby but if you want that jimmy butler kinda guy just a winner does all the right things and is willing to get gritty look at Chet
Chet literally has a MVP candidate as a teammate. SGA is the reason the Thunder are winning games. Chet is just a role player and he got destroyed tonight against the Bucks along with the entire Thunder team.
@@MarquisVegan sometimes you have bad nights the whole team had a bad night, so by your logic one bad night should triumph over the 50 good games?? Cmon man that’s not fair
@@bmillersince92 Not fair? Dude you calling Chet a winner as if he is the main reason. Let’s not act like if Wemby had Luka has a teammate that the Spurs wouldn’t be winning way more games. Wemby have no all star caliber teammates. Wemby put up those stats while being double and triple teamed. Put Wemby on OKC and that team is winning a championship hands down.
@@MarquisVegan bro this video literally shows you the impact Chet has on this team they win 40 games last season there gonna win maybe 55 or more this season the only addition was Chet
Chet deserves rookie of the year award. But of course it's probably going to Wemby cuz the media just loves Wemby even though he isn't good enough to get the spurs out of the basement.
I don't blame Wemby for their lack of success I think Chet would've accomplished about the same if he were on the Spurs in his place but I do agree he deserves ROTY
@@kbbailey3821 He's definitely being over hyped but I don't wanna downplay what he's been doing either. He's averaging 20 and 10 while leading the league in blocks as a rookie. That's already all star caliber numbers imo that's REALLY impressive
I've seen so many videos of Wemby just running around the floor looking for blocks while his dude is getting wide open buckets but sure that's great defense.
Chet does have a handle he's just 7"1 and a rookie and the fact that I just had to explain that to u means u don't know basketball kd gets stripped sometimes it's the same concept
The Thunder didn't make the playoffs last year, this year second best record in the league. Last year the Spurs had a better record than they will with Wemby.
What are you talking Shai is arguably an MVP the thunder have a great supporting cast and Jalen Williams and Josh Giddey have both taken a step up although Chet is good he is not doing every thing
Last year without chet they didn't make playoffs, this year they 2nd best record in the league, his impact is obvious
That’s why he should be ROTY but Wemby has put up better numbers so if you’re just looking at box scores, he’s in the lead. I think either of them are deserving. If Wemby gets it, I won’t be mad. He’s been incredible. But I value impact over stats.
Well Jdub has improved alot too
@@TheDeven1000nah it’s bc Wemby is actually the better player in every way possible. It’s more than just stat sheet atp
@@TheDeven1000and also has dub and a mvp level teammate in sga . Roty is not based off team success
Don’t miss the fact that every single player on OKC is having their best shooting season of their career except for giddy and Joe
Holmgren. Not Holgrem
How does everyone fuck up his name so bad 😂
Man I wanted my Spurs to tank the year before to get Chet, we ended up with Sochan. If Chet would have gotten hurt like he did and the Spurs got the number 1 pick like we did. Wemby and Chet would have been crazy together on my Spurs.
That hits because as much as people want to lump them together, Wemby and Chet are very different and could be complementary

Chet my favorite thunder love watching him deny these boys at the rim
For real he can become really good and a potential all star
For sure!

The future of the thunder, he’s only gonna get better with time

He clears wemby
lmao
@@viridiss3793That’s your best argument? Troll 😂
He can be a good 3rd option and contend wemby is a first option
@@FLACK877first option to be out of the playoffs* bro is becoming dame 2.0, great, but not great enough to go anywhere
@@Nobody1mportant999 it's doesn't matter when wemby is on a good team he will be a 1st option
Staying healthy will define chet's career.

Gonzaga must be very proud of Chet.
Future hall of famer imo
Wait until he hits his prime😮

Look up the patch of Chet jumping rope from a couple of years ago.
JI healthy, is turning into a powerful two-way instrument.
Chet does have a handle he's just 7"1 and a rookie and the fact that I just had to explain that to u means u don't know basketball kd gets stripped sometimes it's the same concept
He didn’t say he didn’t have a handle.
Boricua Hispanic India n black iam.. the okc have 3 main players , chet shai n Jalen era the trio . 😮
Chet HOLGREM! lol
The Thunder didn't make the playoffs last year, this year second best record in the league. Last year the Spurs had a better record than they will with Wemby.
SGA*
Chet need to eat plenty of rice and eggs !!!
What are you talking Shai is arguably an MVP the thunder have a great supporting cast and Jalen Williams and Josh Giddey have both taken a step up although Chet is good he is not doing every thing
his handles needs work ngl
"body control" here's the thing... Chet is only 21 in the NBA and had heard criticisms and responded to them. He will always get compared to Victor...
Right. Not like Shai is one of the best in the NBA right now. Statistically.
How many of these posters had faith in Chet after the injury? I’d love to know.
