考虑到雷霆队的这位大个子就在现场，这番言论可真是语出惊人
由理查德·杰弗森、钱宁·弗莱(Channing Frye)和艾莉·克里夫顿(Allie Clifton)主持的《Road Trippin’ Show》自称是“由你最喜欢的球员直接讲述有趣且深刻的NBA故事的首选播客”。
这个三人组合有一个播客，视频发布在YouTube上（我相信所有其他类型的社交媒体上也都有），本周早些时候，他们邀请了切特·霍尔姆格伦作为嘉宾，讨论了各种话题。
理查德·杰弗森急于告诉霍尔姆格伦——以及其他所有人——他一直支持这位前冈萨加大学斗牛犬队球员获得本赛季的最佳新秀奖。
@ChetHolmgren 对文班亚马(Wembanyama)赢得最佳新秀有什么感想？

在解释为什么霍尔姆格伦比维克托·文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama)更应该获得最佳新秀时，杰弗森说：
“我知道当你身处一支每晚都在为某些目标而战的球队时，你会承受怎样的压力。作为一名新秀，要在82场比赛中做到这一点。我的信念是，如果你在圣安东尼奥马刺队，你所取得的数据将会同样出色。”
霍尔姆格伦的“新秀”赛季（他在2022年被选中为榜眼后错过了他的真正新秀赛季）场均得到16.5分、7.9个篮板、2.4次助攻和2.3次盖帽。他的盖帽数排名联盟第五，仅次于文班亚马、沃克·凯斯勒(Walker Kessler)、布鲁克·洛佩兹(Brook Lopez)和安东尼·戴维斯(Anthony Davis)。
相比之下，文班亚马场均得到21.4分、10.6个篮板和3.9次助攻，以及联盟领先的3.6次盖帽。
文班亚马以压倒性的优势获得了最佳新秀奖，获得了99张第一名选票和495分，而霍尔姆格伦以295分的总分排名第二。
“那个”杰弗森先生，支持你的嘉宾是一回事，但为了让这个观点听起来站得住脚，而抛出一个基于模糊比较的惊人言论，这就有待商榷了。
注意到霍尔姆格伦是如何千方百计地避开这个坑的吗？他似乎对自己被选中后的处境没有任何不满。毕竟，他在自己的新秀赛季就打进了季后赛。

Richard Jefferson says Chet Holmgren deserved Rookie of the Year
A hot take considering the Thunder’s big man was in the room
The Road Trippin’ Show, hosted by Richard Jefferson, Channing Frye and Allie Clifton, calls itself “the premiere podcast for entertaining and insightful NBA stories told directly by your favorite players.”
The trio has a podcast and video is posted on YouTube (and I am sure all other sorts of social media), and earlier this week, they had guest Chet Holmgren with them to discuss a variety of topic.
Hot on Richard Jefferson’s mind was to tell Holmgren — and everyone else for that matter — that he had supported the former Gonzaga Bulldog for this season’s Rookie of the Year honors.
How does @ChetHolmgren feel about Wemby winning Rookie of the Year?
Full episode with @Rjeff24, @channingfrye, and @RealAClifton drops tomorrow on all platforms: https://t.co/fn8RIN1D8Y pic.twitter.com/CBnanhI3dm

In explaining why Hologram was a more deserving Rookie of the Year than Victor Wembanyama:
“I know the pressure that it comes with when you’re on a team that is battling and competing for something every single night. To do that as a rookie in 82. My beliefs were if you would have been on the San Antonio Spurs, the numbers that you would have put up would have been equally as ridiculous.”
Holmgren’s “rookie” campaign (he missed his true rookie season after being drafted 2nd overall in 2022) yielded 16.5 points, 7.9 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 2.3 per game. He ranked fifth in the league behind Wemby, Walker Kessler, Brook Lopez, and Anthony Davis.
By comparison, Wembanyama averaged 21.4 points, 10.6 rebounds and 3.9 assists, and a league-leading 3.6 blocks per game.
Wembanyama took the Rookie of the Year award after receiving a landslide 99 first-place votes and 495 points, but Holmgren finished in second place with 295 total points.
Mr. “The” Jefferson, it’s one thing to bolster your guest, but to create a hot take supported by an obscure comparison to make it sound remotely viable is pushing it.
Notice how Holmgren did everything to avoid taking the bait? It seems there isn’t any animosity in where he landed. After all, he made it to the playoffs in his rookie season.
