The vision of Giddey in transition is insane

[–] hakodate00@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

yeah he def sees it before you're supposed to

[–] skyruss@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Likes to hit it before you're supposed to as well

[–] COBA89@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah he saw that play before it even finished developing….

[–] IGoOnRedditAMA@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

He missed the very open alley oop though

[–] Leavingtheecstasy@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

But r/NBA seems to keep only hitting the easy layups

[–] EbullientFluid@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I don't know. Seems like he was keeping an eye out for the youngster to a fault. I mean SGA was primed and ready for an easy lob deep in the paint.

[–] dys0n_giddey@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Just show this when you want to talk ROTY

[–] Imkitoto@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Alright alright OKC we will trade you a first rounder for him. You don’t have to beg

[–] RamonAsensio@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

We have so many first round picks that they’re just sitting around in drawers like infinity stones at the TVA.

[–] UnhingedSupernova@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Steph at the 1

MJ at the 2

LeBron at the 3

Chet at the 4

Shaq at the 5

That's my all-time lineup.

[–] Khione_Asteri@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

KG would be a much better fit over Shaq. you want the spacing to open up rim pressure for steph bron and mj, rather than one man taking all the rim pressure for himself.

[–] Overall_Win_9844@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Chet for LeBron straight up

Looks like the evolved form of Bill Walton out there—scary thought.

[–] cfranklinn@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Reminds me of short-haired, red-bearded Walton in his prime in 1976-78. I just can’t help but see the similarity in appearance, lol.

[–] kwaliti@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This guy knows mountain men

[–] lemur918@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

They are very similar. Only difference is Walton passed out of the post very frequently like Jokic.

[–] DeadDay@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I'm so glad I got to see this lol

[–] Primopastalover@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Better than wemby

[–] NbaEnjoyer@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

He is so Nba ready, unlike Brickmbanyama.

He'll be soo good if he stays healthy.

[–] somethingnew_orelse@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Bricktor is right there

[–] New_Essay_4869@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Ngl, I was expecting him to start the season rusty. Even his summer league this year wasnt as good as his summer league last year. Im pleasantly surprised

[–] Slendyla_IV@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And then we subbed him out lmao

[–] baloncestosandler@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)
[–] asa091@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Minutes restriction or prescheduled substitute?

[–] Slendyla_IV@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

We were wondering the same thing in our game thread

[–] SandyMandy17@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Giddey is very good at seeing things with potential before they mature

[–] mylifeforthehorde@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Why is the crowd so dead lol. That was hype

[–] DentonDiggler@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Oklahoma is a football state and doesn't get into basketball until after Christmas. Also, I don't think a lot of the casuals know we're good yet.

[–] Wisesize@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

The warriors game I went to was super loud and probably sold out

[–] inertiatic_espn@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Also 4:00 is kind of a weird tip off.

[–] DoeSeeDoe123@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

That and he doesn’t fuck kids so that’s a major plus

[–] Romanopapa@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago
[–] titsmagee9@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

It's never not funny when someone so skinny flexes like that, even if he is doing impressive things

[–] BlueHundred@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

He's literally the ideal modern big man. He can shoot, rim run, defend the rim, everything. Perfect pairing with SGA's elite driving ability
