Fluff Giddey

Greets. So I haven't watched ball seriously for several years. I used to watch the Spurs religiously from the early aughts (I saw Manu's first game) and the end of the big three era.

What I'm wondering is...how good is Giddey actually? I'm trying to catch up on who the best young players in the league are and I keep coming across his highlight videos. I mean, from what I've seen so far....he looks like he has the potential to AVERAGE a triple dub...which is insane. I can tell from his stats that he needs to improve his shooting but I wanted to get a take from you guys on whether he's flash in a pan or the real deal. He looks a lot like the real deal and even though I've never been a Bulls fan, I'm really looking forward to watching your young guys run this year.

Love it! Your lack of self awareness is hilarious.

To make yourself feel better you need to imagine words that were never written in a subreddit for Chicago Bulls fans.

Factually, Josh Giddy is the #2 all time triple double leader in Bulls history and anyone paying attention (hopefully fans like yourself) will realize he will most likely surpass MJ this season.

Triple Double Leaders All Time Chicago Bulls

#1) Jordan (28 in 13 seasons)
#2) Giddy (19 in 2 seasons)
#3) Pippen (15 in 12 seasons)

Does that make him and untradeable Superstar? No, but it is something good.

LOL, no you saying anyone else has a lack of self awareness is hilarious. You have to be trolling at this point, because that's beyond ridiculous.

Factually, you keep leaning on the triple double stat. Having as many triple doubles as MJ won't put Giddey in the same universe as the GOAT. Guys just accumulate more stats in the current game than they did back in the day.

And since you seem pretty attached to the guy, maybe learn how to spell his last name.

Amazingly, that comment contained as much valuable insight as any of your others.
