Center out. Backup center out. Backup backup center out. Backup backup backup center is out.
If only there was a big man in Milwaukee that could seal the gap

Chet has no junk in the trunk. He has to do squats with heavy weights when he heals up or potentially be another unicorn.

Tbh hes a superb defender at the size he is, he should add some more muscle but be careful to affect his mobility.

@@FreeBandz658 Wemby probably outweighs Chet by 30 pounds. Jokic outweighs him by 80 pounds. If he’s going to bang in the middle with these guys, he has to bulk-up his foundation. If you want big muscles, you have to use big weights.

@@dskwared2u610 i mean he was completely stifling Jokic in our first game vs Denver and he’s one of the best defenders in the league as he is. We did need to address the rebounding issue which we have with Hartenstein, we don’t need Chet to become that he offers so much that we can afford to accept a weakness when it comes to his strengths outweighing it.

We need Hartenstein back asap, Chet was playing so good on both ends. Luckily K Rich is back and Dieng has improved so we aren’t completely doomed. Still think we will be very hard to beat with small ball but hopefully Chet doesn’t have any long term issues from this

@@kloonmen374 def not back in January. It’s 8-10 weeks just for another update. You realize once it heals, which takes like 2-3 months, you have to rehab after, which takes another month. Then you have to start to train and ramp up which is 2-4 weeks. He is going to be bed ridden for the next couple of months. It is highly likely that in January they will be like he is done for the season. Multiple players have ruined their career rushing back from the same injury, Isiah Thomas is one of the most recent with the exact same injury. Was never the same after.

Yea KG was 140 lbs at only 6’11. Wemby is 235 Chet is only 207. He should work on putting 40 more lbs the next couple years. His team is stacked so most of his mobility will be used on defense
