Will definitely hold my hands up and say I didn't see Giddey becoming a reliable shooter/scorer this quickly, which is what needed to happen to make the pairing work. But you're right, talent generally trumps anything else. The kid is a sponge though so I shouldn't be surprised.
Josh is averaging 19.3ppg in January on 54% shooting, on around 17 attempts.
I think nobody had giddey becoming this decent shooting wise this fast.
Realistically he's going to come back to earth soon, perhaps more so than we care to realize. However I think it's pretty clear that he's improved since last year and we have basis to believe he could be even better next year.
