If the Thunder want to win games they need to:
-
Find a BIG that can bang in the paint and still play ball the way the Thunder want to play and
-
Cut Giddey’s minutes drastically.

Too many people fall in love with a player and can’t be realistic. People are saying “Giddey is young” or “he will develop”. That’s fine when you have a bunch of rejects playing on the team, but roster spots are becoming more valuable as time goes on.
Cason, Joe, and JWill are currently outplaying Giddey. Dieng isn’t yet, but he has even less experience than Giddey and may have more upside.
Giddey is seriously dragging the average down at the present time. The cream needs to start rinsing to the top and get playing time, based on merit. Right now, Giddey’s minutes need to be slashed. Maybe it will motivate him.
