Nikola Jokic on Chet Holmgren: “He’s a really talented guy, but this is his first year. He’s still learning everything. … I think he needs experience. I think he needs to be a little bit fatter, to be honest.”

    Considering no human being is supposed to be seven feet tall, I try not to body-shame them. The “needs to put weight on” crowd don’t understand that they’re complete outliers in our species and things aren’t always so simple. It will be curious to see how Chet’s physique changes (or stays the same) over time.

    I got not problems with what Jokic said but Nuggets fans have been so annoying, first the ones in r/nba and now one is posting shit on our sub

    Bro what I wouldn’t give for a free license to go get fatter

    “Honey an FMVP gave it to me as advice, I’m not going to argue with him”

    Chet would be so much better off if he had Poku’s leg size. He’s put on* a good amount since entering the league.

    He doesn’t need to gain weight. He needs to be a SF/PF and we need a true 5. It’s idiotic to have Holmgren guard guys who outweigh him by 50+ pounds. It’s setting him up for failure.

    Was watching clippers game. Russ gets call on a Wemby layup, barely make any contact on his long ass leg, they challenged it and callstands?? gotta watch it in slow mo to even see it. Don’t understand Wemby gets all this superstar call right away in the league and shai has to go through all these bs for past two games.

    Jokic is a funny guy. But to be fair, there are very few people in the league who wouldn’t get pushed around by Jokic haha. All in good fun, and it’s not a secret that Chet – like most rookies – needs to continue to build muscle carefully
