    Giddy has been super surprising this preseason. Maybe cause I expected so little.

    if he figures out a shot he could be the real deal.

    AD looks slow chasing his defender.

    My 5 year old fighting his sleep trying to see LeBron Dunk. The space jam connection.

    Joe Harris blowing his load in pre-season, watch him shoot blanks in the playoffs again.

    Me watching the Pistons, Cavs, and Rockets if Josh Giddey becomes the best player in this draft.

    He didn't just start showing flashes, he's looked good since game one with the possessions he's gotten.

    You don't pass on the athletic, passing 7 footer to draft the G league SG that can barely get by his man, no matter how famous he is on Tiktoc and instagram.

    I remember really wanting Poku last year, I think he’ll develop into a solid 3rd type guy on a playoff team.
    Giddey looks nice, if that develops a semi knock down jumper he will be a taller Melo Ball type.

    Yeah, I was upset when we traded our pick last year. Thought we could grab him. He has ridiculous upside. Legit 7 footer with elite length and athleticism. Range and shot blocking. Just super skinny

    Random thought, not that it would ever happen.

    Who says no? OKC or Hou

    KPJ and Wood for Giddey and Poku

    Strictly a hypothetical, just a gauge for talent vs talent.

    Sam Presti hangs up and blocks our number. Giddey and Poku are both 19 years old and Giddey just turned 19 a few days ago. Both did things from a creativity, passing, and ball-handling standpoint this past game that KPJ and Wood could only dream of. The upside of those 2 young guys is too great to trade them for anything less than a star player. Sam Presti may have sneakily done it again.
