The way Thunder fans talk about Wemby you would think the dude is playing like Anthony Bennett
someguyfromtecate
Chet is 21, with a year to prep, in a team led by a potential MVP candidate.
Wemby is 19, first time playing in the states, and he’s the best player in a team with an experimental first time PG.
Regardless of skills and talent, the circumstances are certainly preferable for Chet.

The biggest thing they forget is the extra year Chet had (ala Ben Simmons and Donovan Mitchell)
They’ll both be great players, and time will prove that.
Another bonus Chet has is a Better team around with with 2 great distributors (Giddey and SGA)
I’m not thinking about bay reactions until we have had atleast until the all star break but even then I’m sure Wemby will be the freak we have seen flashes of

And the comments tore the guy to pieces, can we not take offense to every singular dunderhead?

That guy even has a Thunder flair. He is obviously biased, but so are we. Yes, Chet is much more consistent on offense right now. But he also has a much better team around him. He doesn’t face as much defense as Wemby does simply because he has better scorers around him. Chet is also a couple years older and had a season to train with his team. Wemby just got here, so he just needs some time to adapt. If they swapped situations, I think Wemby would be the clear cut better player. Also, Wemby being a couple inches taller automatically raises his ceiling, albeit not by much. No disrespect to Chet, I think they will both be superstars in the future, I just think Wemby has a higher ceiling as of now.

Thunder fans Lowkey one of the most annoying fanbases in the league. Every time Chet does good all they do is tear Wemby down and say how much better he is than Wemby while spurs fans literally don’t give a shit about Chet. Inferiority and little brother complexes will do that to a poverty franchise tho

Alternatively when Wemby has 18pts on 50% shooting everyone can’t stop slobbing on his knob. He is a polarizing prospect and I can’t wait until we have a large enough sample size for Chet and Wemby to judge them adequately

You have to realize to casuals this is all they ‘watch’ the sport for is just hot takes like their favorite talking heads on TV. Just ignore it and move on

We’re not even at the part of the season where Pop has specific expectations and plans for Wemby. He’s just letting him do whatever to collect data and figure out the right direction. Execution isn’t even an expectation right now. Chet has been with a team that’s had ample time to see what he can do and how he can fit into the roster. I don’t think Chet should even be eligible for ROTY. The comparisons of him, Wemby, and the rest of the rookies in the league are based in an undeniable disparity in how familiar they are with the league

OKC fans should worry about Shai and the playoffs but all they seem to be doing is victory lapping because their team looks better than a lottery team.

wow, a Thunder fan supports a Thunder player. i’m in utter shock. wish they could be completely unbiased like this sub, eh?
i can’t confirm since the post is deleted, but i’m assuming this post was getting thrashed? otherwise i’m not sure why it would be deleted. in that case, it makes this post even more cringeworthy. it never ceases to amaze me how much shit y’all talk on other teams and then turn around saying stuff like “i don’t even think about you at all.” i know self-awareness is in short supply here, but geez.

Chet has a lot of playmakers in SGA, Giddey and JDub. Look at how they pass to him in the paint.
