I just want to admit that the thunder are not my team, so I don’t follow the team as much as the C’s. But Giddey is one of my favourite players in the nba. I don’t understand why I only see hate posts about this great man, The SLOB WIZARD!.

People hated dort cuz of his inefficiency and now that he’s efficient they love him.
People mostly are hating on giddey cuz he’s been inefficient and plays bad defense but there aren’t many guys in the nba that can pass like him. As a 6’8 pg there aren’t many guys that can put up 16.6ppg/ 8rpg / 6apg in the league. He may never be an efficient shooter but he’ll do a lot better over the whole season than he’s done in the first 10 games this year.
He is probably best suited to be the 6th man distributor and playmaker off the bench though because as long as he’s been in the league he’s always been better when he’s not playing with shai or if shai misses the whole game.
Given that, a 3rd year slump is not necessarily the worst thing for okc given they’ll be able to extend him for closer to $20 mil vs a full $35 mil max if he has a down year.
While I’d like to see a trade with okc this season, I would only give up giddey for a true star.
If the Thunder pay $20M per year for Giddey, my confidence in him would be completely erased.
As in overpay?
