Yeah no rational person can deny that Cason is currently better than Giddey in almost every aspect except passing.
That said… if he reached his potential as a big guard who can properly utilize his size and above 30% shooting and can defend decently this will give us a massive edge against other teams. He already shown flashes but it’s just flashes we need consistency from our starting point guard.
What we should ask is how likely will he reach this potential? Do we have the means to help him develop? And do we have the time to wait for him to get there?
To be honest I have no answer for these questions
I don’t even care about Giddey’s shooting or finishing right now. It’s the fit on defense is concerning. Our guards seem to be complacent this year leaving Chet to protect the rim at the last minute. I think we did a better job last year in terms of defensive intensity
I really would want to slot Kenrich early in the 1st and let Giddey orchestrate the 2nd unit with shooters around him
That’s worth trying.
