The official Chet Holmgren will be a bust thread

[nieman]

This why I'm worried about that French kid Victor. He a generational prospect on talent alone but history not on his side. Ralph Sampson, Yao, KP... It just don't go well for those 7'1+ skinnier players that more finesse and skill based. Yao wasn't skinny actually and played out the post a lot but his knees still got fukked too. There just a certain height where it's hard for ballers to sustain a long career.

That kid Victor either gon be some generational shyt we ain't never seen or follow the trail of those injured what ifs. I can't see no in between where he just good or decent.

In Yao's case, he also was playing year round for like 3 years. After the NBA season, he'd go suit up for China. He was set up to fail.

Bruh frail big men are just a walking list of injuries waiting to happen

Even Giannis who is a lab experiment gone right has had some foot/leg issues...

People were right to be skeptical about how this kid was gonna hold up......shyt couple hard shoulders to the chest from grown man bigs probably have this kid folding like damp tissue

I’d feel disrespected as a fan if I paid for season tickets to see Chet grow as a player and he get hurt in an offseason pro am. Hopefully NBA players playing in those are now dead. Guys can’t play 82 games anymore and rookies are sitting summer league after 2 games.
