I agree. I am nitpicking with this maybe, but I do have concerns about his shot release. He basically shoots from his forehead and shovels it up. Because of that, his shot is going to be challenged and disrupted much more easily than it would otherwise.

As an Aussie I'm always going to support him. But I said at the time when people were questioning why OKC took him 6th that he's a tall guard in addition to being an excellent passer and floor general and if the OKC coaching staff can unlock his offensive game he becomes the kind of player that every team wants. Seems like they're on the right track.

Josh Giddey is a young and exceptionally talented player who possesses a high potential. He is an outstanding playmaker, with a towering size and high basketball IQ, despite being only 20 years old, he is essentially at the beginning of his career. While his game is already impressive, if he can improve his defensive skills and shooting, he has the potential to become an All-Star level player in the near future.

@TriVos Ahren Sorry to nit pick. Keep expressing your opinions. I love Poku, and Ousmane too. Poku is such a mystery as he does all things well, is so long, prone to mistakes as all 21 year-olds are but who could be a star. The incredible thing that stands out with the Thunder as I see it, is they right now have 4 kids who could be all-stars, two more, Poku and Ousmane, who might, a bunch of others who might be starting on other teams, and the real possibility given they have the Clippers and Rockets possible picks the next two years. And they are the second youngest team in the history of the NBA, second only to last year’s team.
@charlescohen6140
Жыл бұрын
@TriVos Ahren Sorry. As I read just now, the Thunder last year was the all-time youngest team and this year the second youngest. Can’t verify but if you go through the ages of the roster you see that Muscala is by far the oldest at 31, Kendrich Williams at 28, Lindy Waters 25, Shai is 24, Dort is 23, Isaiah Joe 23, Mann turning 22, Bazley 22, Robinson 22, Poku 21, Jaylen Williams 21, Jaylin William 20, Giddey 20, Holmgren 20, Dieng 19. That’s pretty surreal especially considering most players really mature at 24 according to Coach Mark.

Good video, good research on the year-to-year improvements. But you didn't even mention his Center-level rebounding, which involves effort and anticipation at a very high level. He's not a big, he's not a leaper, but he's got double-digit rebounds in a third of their games. That's either magic, or some ability that hasn't been full explained.
@charlescohen6140

Thank you for emphasizing his youth. Most casual fans get into a player after he has played for a few years, at least but are incredibly impatient on a 19, 20 or 21 year-old. They can’t project how a thin kid who has played against college kids can be totally different with experience and 15-20 pounds. Think Tatum and Giannis. Also, this is why the Thunder will be vastly different in two years as Poku, Chet and as we will see Ousmane Dieng get stronger and bigger.

I saw Rick play many times when he started out in San Francisco. I immediately was mesmerized by his intensity and incredible speed which most younger people saw. He changed his style as he got older and bigger but he still is one of the greatest. Josh’s game is different, a pass first but the comparison is very apt in their drive and intelligence, and incredibly like so many of this fascinating team, just babies. He is amazingly composed and mature.
