Why Josh Giddey Could One Day Be the Best Point Forward in the League (FILM BREAKDOWN)

- Josh Giddey has elite upside-- great passing, positional size and untapped off the dribble potential. What seemed like a reach at pick 6 by OKC now looks like one of the better picks after just seven games. Things you can't always teach like feel, patience, and IQ are already there, and he's doing it against the best defenders in the league. With better players around him in the future and with an improved jumper, I see no reason why he can't one day be amongst the elite in the NBA.

What impresses me most is his post match interviews. His IQ is immense for a teenager and you can tell he's a student of the game so his ceiling is endless
No doubt and he's one of those players who will only get better when the roster improves around him, doesn't need 20 shots to impact the game.
This guy's passing is off the charts, and your spot on about slowing the pace down,
not comparing but hes got mad larry bird vibes in terms of his IQ/playmaking.
Love that hes not afraid to drive too.
When I saw some of these clips Larry was the first guy I thought of. Just off of build and the way he moves on the court. If giddey becomes a consistent rebounder like bird it’s just gonna add to his impact also
I think you are so on the money with the Larry Bird vibes
@@TheKonnorMacShow He just collected 18 rebounds last night! This guy is gonna be a legend .
@@sed1589 Perfect size to be a dominant rebounder in todays NBA
this is actually such a good breakdown good job bro
Thanks for the support man more to come soon
AMAZING VIDEO I NEEDED THIS
Thanks for watching!
He was doing this shit in the NBL last year. NBA just hasn't really caught on yet that playing pro-ball overseas is way more beneficial than college ball if the prospect is talented enough.
Yeah totally there's some stuff on tape that six year vets don't have as far as the composure and skill level, It's kinda crazy he wasn't really getting a ton of buzz on draft boards until a few weeks before the draft, glad he landed in a good org to develop too.
@@TheKonnorMacShow What your take on Poku?
@@MrKwatts27 He has skill but it depends on who the Thunder want to draft next year, the best players coming out all play his position so there's a chance he might get lost in the shuffle a bit.
@@TheKonnorMacShow Well, he has the height of a PF and Center but his frame and skillset is better at the SF position. If he can lock down of defense, I can see a SGA, Giddy, Poku, Chet (If they get lucky) and Victor Wembanyama (If they get lucky). Rebuild, complete 💯
@@MrKwatts27 I think they get one of Banchero/Chet for sure, after that they might be too good to get Victor lol but with the amount of picks they have they might move up in the draft. Either way the rebuild will go quickly in my opinion.
knees together is called valgus, it isnt him trying to generate more power, it is a muscle activation weakness causing a leaking of energy, doubt he has even seen a gym at 18/19yrs old from Aus because he would have been playing all the time as a focus, he will eradicate this physical weakness within 12mths, this will also help with his foot placement for long range jumper, wont be an issue as he will be shooting from Steph Curry range
Thanks for the comment man love learning stuff from viewers and yeah I like his shot up top release wise but gym work will help him like you said. You can see he can shoot from deep already, can’t wait to see what he looks like when he fills out his body
Taller version of Steve Nash. Love this guy
Great young player
good assessment of JG
Thanks for watching !
The kid plays exactly like magic Johnson. The similarities between him and the legendary laker are uncanny. If okc get good or he gets put in a good team then he is all-nba within 2 years
Most exciting player of this years rookie class (and this rookie class is stacked) dont get me wrong the top10 are all very good but I find Josh the most exciting because you never know what hes going to do whether elite passing , or rebound over the top of bigger players or strip a ball then drive base line. great to watch
Looked good in summer league, next step is the consistent jumper
I think a taller Stockton. Obviously not at that skill level yet haha! But he has incredible pass vision and accuracy and has a bit of a knack for steals
That is a really good comparison just because I feel like he can have a longer career that doesn't rely on athleticism. Perfect player to have next to guys like SGA
@TheKonnorMacShow re:lack of athleticism ... this works both ways , for eg. Ja less likely to have Steph or Nash's rinky-dink game around the contested area because Ja M's vertical-game is SOOOOO compelling , thus Ja never gets same rinky-dink game and development of Steph/Nash/Irving/Paul/Stockton because Ja can go upstairs for posters , #Daniel_Kahneman_cascade innit
Watching him carry himself and speak as well. He is such a stereo typically Aussie athlete lol.
my boy!
Appreciate the support bro
🔥🔥🔥
Let's not go nuts. Us Aussies were thinking the same about Ben Simmons... 😬
No doubt I think Giddey's shooting/shot creation will eventually separate him from Simmons but time will tell.
@@TheKonnorMacShow I think his attitude and work ethic will be the biggest factor. Looking forward to seeing him in the National squad.
@@fleshconfetti idk why y’all act like Ben isn’t a multiple time all star, all nba player and one of the best defenders in the league
@@jovantesobers7789 I’m not. I’m questioning his attitude work ethic.
Aussies did the same to Jarryd Hayne when he went to the NFL. Too much hype.
Giddey is intriguing. For me the main knock on him is overall athleticism which isnt elite. But he is holding his own and has good length that fits todays game
100% that might be an issue down the line if he's in a high level playoff series or something like that on the defensive end. But his size makes up for a ton of errors he might have. You have to think if OKC is picking high enough they take a center who might also cover for some issues.
You have to remember his 19 & still growing.A lot of the draft class are 2yrs older & filling out.His gangly.When he starts to fill out in 2 yrs time after finishing growing his going to be a machine.He will be a max player in his next contract.
HE JUST TURNED 19 A MONTH AGO
His upside is crazy mainly cause he's still a kid basically,
Thanks for the Video. Even if he gets a bigger rubio he still will be helpfull for the thunder.
Thanks for watching and yeah he’s the perfect guy to play next to SGA
He needs to be a more aggressive scorer. I noticed that when he misses a few shots, he loses all confidence and doesn’t shoot or score the ball later on.
Yeah his numbers will be inconsistent until he finds the right balance, last game was a little better from him.
What impresses me most is his weaknesses
Impressive kid for sure
I don't think he even needs to sink baskets, he can win games on his passing alone...
I agree but his passing will become more dangerous if there’s a scoring threat to go with it
👀 👀 👀 I'm telling you . . . Most skilled player ever, most marketable athlete ever, will challenge Jordan as the best ever; Has MJ, Magic, Bird, LeBron, Kobe, PG, and Nash in his game. He is the Wizard of Aus, The Chosen One. We found him. He'll live up to what we all thought Ben Simmons would be. Btw, almost became the youngest dude to ever have a triple-double tonight.
He definitely has the potential to be way better than Ben, and already has the social following to be super popular with younger people. Thanks for the comment!
settle down!
pump the breaks
Everything "wrong" or "lacking" is very fixable. He didn't go to a D1 College so we must not be any good, right? Sam Presti has done it again, with a few more decent players and using the draft picks wisely (again) OKC could be half decent and Giddey can run an offence (as is already showing now). Ben Simmons had better get back on the court if he wants any love from the Australians down here (including me!)
Yeah you can tell what "experts" didn't actually watch him. More experience + a bit more strength as he grows and he will be one of the best in the league.
1:33 looks like a travel to me.
Definitely close lol
Hell nah
Video ain't age well 😂
great player but I'd say Scottie Barnes may take that title. He can do it all on both ends and if he improves his shot he basically has no weaknesses
It's close I had to do a video on both guys, both will be great players. Scottie's defense is much better i just think it depends on what role you're asking them both to play on your team
Stop hyping him. Im a fan but he is a long way from being an offensive threat.
Oh no doubt, but he has the feel already which is important in young players, just a matter of getting experience at this point
The Wizard Of Aus is ROTY 💯👑
Love that nickname
