      @@LankyWx I’ve watched every Thunder game the past 3-4 years except a handful, so nah def not a casual lol. Giddey is honestly a bit overrated by casual fans, not saying he’s bad, but he has stretches where he’s unplayable at times. Keep in mind JDub is older than Giddey too so its not surprising how well he’s playing.
      They’re close, but as of right now JDub is alot more consistent and knows how to get to his spots better.

      He is showing potential, but he still has a lot to work on. I do love the pickup for the thunder though. I wouldn't say he's shocked me with his numbers though. 58% true shooting is only 2% higher than league average for the SG position. And most of his shots are coming from the paint. That's going to inflate his FG% just a bit.

      His steal rate is really impressive too. And a rookie guard scoring efficiently is really rare. Compare with Ant’s rookie season, Jalen Green’s last year (and continuing this year), the rest of the rookie guards of this class… he’s already ahead of them in that category. Really promising. He’s been hitting more 3s lately too.

      @@chronics3710 this is what I’m arguing, id rather have jdub guarding their best player than dort. Dort gets beat off the dribble literally almost every play. Last game against the lakers in the final minutes he literally got burnt by Schroeder 5 plays in a row and I was getting so frustrated why he continued to guard him. Sure he’s physical and causes chaos, but he’s not nearly as good at staying in front of his guy as jdub is. Jdub is absolutely lock down, dort is just physical and chaotic. And yes I think jdub is better offensively than giddey. With shai being hurt we’ve seen jdub run the offense far more than giddey, although giddey has been playing great.

  • @mrvk39
    @mrvk39 ปีที่แล้ว +22

    I think he is a perfect fit for OKC and it's mad-scientist GM. He is a high-IQ guy who plays team ball, athletic, plays defense, switchable, and also has multiple tools on offense. You say his weakness is long-range shooting but he is steadily improving! He is 33.5% 3pt shooter for the season but he is a 40% shooter over the last 2 months! And his scoring keep climbing. He is an ideal 3+D wing every teams needs. I see him an ideal 3rd man on a very good playoff team. SGA and Chet (when healthy) could be the core. And this isn't counting all the picks that OKC can theoretically consolidate to acquire a top lottery pick or trade for an all-star. I am not an OKC fan but I just love basketball and OKC does a lot of things true fans appreciate.

  • @ryanb7186
    @ryanb7186 ปีที่แล้ว +90

    He's just good at everything, so really he would fit in well on any team. The only thing he is really struggling a bit with is his three point shooting. If he works nearly as hard as SGA does during offseasons, OKC's guards will be a nightmare for other teams to deal with for years to come. Hopefully SGA will take Jalen under his wing, since their bodies and games are so similar.

      i think he could be a high % but not high volume 3pt shooter - others already pointed out his consistent improvement - not just a few games but at least 2 months worth of play time. His mechanics are a bit weird - notice how he almost doesn't jump when he shoots his 3 but his wingspan allows him to rise above defender. But, his release isn't superfast to be a high volume shooter and i don't see advanced skills like side-step, back-step etc.

    It's wild watching these clips bc it's like I'm watching high school sets in the NBA 4 out 1 in motion or 5 man out open sets with lots of cutting and driving to suck in defense I mean it works but I just don't typically see it in the NBA

    i think he and jabari will be the first 2 to become complete players of this draft class. banchero seems to be an extremely smart and finesse player, but not the type of player who you will use to guard the other team's best player. chet might be the best player when healthy, but that's a big if.
    i think jabari will be a JJJ with some guard skills, and i think jalen might be like paul george with more efficiency.

    I discovered how Great his potential is on 2k he’s an 82 OVR. I was surprised to see his 3pt @80. Considering they have him as a PF/SF in the rotation. He really does have massive potential especially in OKC’s Culture. I cannot wait to see this Young Core Develop. Shias a damn 94OVR, 3-4 Years in, Giddey is an 84-85OVR only 1 Year in & as previously stated JDub is an 82 @ the end of his Rookie Season!!

      @TriVos Ahren I wasn’t the one suggesting trading Giddey, his improvement this year has been crazy, obviously he’s always been an extremely talented playmaker, but this year he’s improved a bit defensively but his driving and finishing at the rim has hit different levels, he looks stronger and more confident, superstar potential imo
