Chet is a difference maker though. Wemby is talented but he should make the team better, he’s still green so maybe they can turn it around soon but I don’t know. Maybe not this season.
first thing his team has to do is get a point guard that's at least a combo guard....don't know what Sochan is, but he aint' that

If he reaches superstar status you are looking at the next face of the NBA. An American born white male with two way potential like this? This is Adam Silver and all marketing companies dream come true.

When I saw how much respect he had for KG and how he wanted to build with him, I knew he was the one.

I see a lot of folks quick to project him as a bust all because he doesn’t look the part, but when you have length and BBIQ, it’s hard to be a bust in today’s league. They’re the two most important things that allow you to stay on the floor in the current climate as a big man.

To go along with the fact he can handle the ball, he can shoot, he can finish, he can switch onto wings/guards and unlike many long, lean white players who’re finesse — he ain’t no p*ssy (he’s spoken about how being clowned for being white with a bowl cut growing up gave him the ability to show he ain’t no punk). He ain’t afraid to get physical and do the dirty work
. Who knows if his frame/durability will allow him to have a long career with his play style (all dependent on how strong he can get and how he grows into his body), but if his name wasn’t Chet and he didn’t look like the end-monster in a horror film, there would be a lot more talk around his actual game rather than projecting him to be a bust based on his appearance.
