Giddey tracking to be the GOAT Aussie baller.
Really? I think he's the real deal. He's not a No.1 type guy but he's very good and could be an All Star.Really not sold on Giddey. Think he'll be a good system player but really don't think he'll excel all that much.
Hope I'm wrong of course.
Yeah see I've got him nowhere near an all star through his career. Basically expecting Patty Mills career.Really? I think he's the real deal. He's not a No.1 type guy but he's very good and could be an All Star.

Giddey looks good in a pretty average OKC side (that's probably over achieving). He can be a good role player but I don't think he's ever a starting all star/starting PG in a championship side. Not unless he's the 4th/5th best player on the team.What? No way.
Patty Mills best season reads 11.4ppg, 1.9rpg, 2.3apg. Mills is a great shooter and a good back up PG and one of the best Aussie exports ever in the NBA but there are levels and Giddey far surpasses the best of Patty Mills.
Giddey in his rookie season had better numbers than Mills career best. Giddey in his rookie season averaged 12.5ppg, 7.8rpg and 6.4apg. In his sophomore season he has kept those numbers whilst raising his scoring up to 16ppg whilst also improving his 3pt shooting to .333 which still has room to improve which I'm sure it will.
Giddey is absolutely tracking to be a future All Star. Ben Simmons is the only Aussie ever to become an All Star, having said that it's not much of a metric, I dont put a lot of stock in All Star selections if I'm honest. Giddey is really only chasing Bogut and Simmons for GOAT aussie. Bogut has the championship, one All NBA 3rd Team selection and one All Defensive second team selection. Simmons is a 3x All Star, ROTY winner, 1x All NBA 3rd team, 2x All Defensive 1st Team.
Giddey is of a similar level with a ton of growth to come. He's far better than Mills.
I gotta disagree. OKC are actually on the improve which is in large part thanks to SGA and Giddey's play. Once they get Holmgren back, they will be in the playoff mix next season.Giddey looks good in a pretty average OKC side (that's probably over achieving).

I more meant in terms of influence rather than straight numbers with Mills. He's ahead of him but I don't think it'll be by all that much through his career.
I mean the awful roster is his fault though. LeGM. So I dont feel sorry for him at all.Nah, fair play to Lebron. This season has been one of the very few where he hasn't moaned like a little bitch to his teammates and front office all season. The Lakers are shite, especially when Davis isn't healthy, and he has kept them in with a chance of making the playoffs despite having an awful roster. Think he is averaging 30-8-7. Extraordinary at his age.
I said nothing in my post about feeling sorry for him...I mean the awful roster is his fault though. LeGM. So I dont feel sorry for him at all.
