  • I agree. Isaiah Joe, from everything I’ve seen, just seems like a future all-star. If he were given the minutes he could very well drop 20 ppg right now on phenomenal efficiency. I’d like him to develop into a true 3 and D guy like a klay.

    Just have SGA pushing the ball with the first teamers and have Giddey run offense for the backups.

    It creates such an offensive threat to have Chet, Joe, SGA, J-Dub on the floor together. They could kill with a PNR or SGA/J Dub cutting. And Chet/Sga/Dort can handle whatever defensive responsibility is needed.

    Giddey could just focus on rebounding, assisting and defense off the bench and turn into a Ben Simmons type of role player (but one who actually gives a shit to play).



  • He’s been really inefficient on offense.

    He’s shooting 43/27/81 which tells me he needs to shoot the ball less than what he’s shooting it and pass more. The inefficient scoring hurts the team as a whole and builds bad habits. It’s an ugly 19ppg. The same reason we rag on Poole.

    Now the 81% free throw metric suggests he probably develops a shot over the next couple of years but isn’t there yet.

    Like if he was dropping 12/10/4 on 50/30/80 (making more taking less) that’s an entirely different thing, especially considering how poor his supporting cast is. Those are good numbers for a rookie. You’re talking about one of the best defenders in the league who gets a lot of rebounds and is actually efficient on offense.
