Early mocks have half of the top 10 picks being PGs or combo guards. Can't wait to see what the plan is when Giddey's getting a contract and the best player on the board is another guard that they don't want to pass on.

:jbhmm:
my early take is Giddy isn’t worth paying, that’s why the pick for Alex was always prob best

My sentiment exactly. VJ Edgecombe for example, is in play... he's a 6'5 combo with Westbrook comps (he shytted on Few's son this season when he checked him in garbage time)

That's the type of guard you look at infusing with an Ayo or Coby because he grades out as an athletic PLUS defender with size for his position.

Giddy is never going to be that. So the trade was just odd man.

Jalen Smith is kinda trash at passing. He's missed Dalen twice tonight on that back dunkers spot. He wears glasses and still can't see for shyt maybe

:why:

Matas a legit shot blocker, too. That's like his 4th athletic block on a nice drive this year.
His ceiling looks higher than any other player that was picked in this draft honestly.

His block rate is legendary for the amount of usage he logs already, the only thing I was worried about is his shot and he's hitting his catch and shoot 3s. There's more to his game offensively than being a spot up shooter tho, but I think he's not trying to do too much, but compared to Pat, I think he'll be a guy you actually can run offense through.

AKME literally watched the great chemistry Coby and Ayo have built last season and was like... let's go get Giddey

:snoop:
