Josh Giddey could see the positives in a loss after he pulled off a filthy move on one of the greatest players to have ever played the game.

“They were swimming upstream for the remaining three quarters.” We got it to a two-point game and had a chance to win it but our first quarter wasn’t good enough.” “We closed the game really well. Draymond was quarterbacking out of the high-post and picking us apart. Add to the mix a fit and healthy Chet Holmgren, the No. But while it was not a perfect game for the Thunder in an eight-point loss, Giddey said there was plenty to take out of the match as the 24-26 keep competing with the best in the league.

Josh Giddey has already developed into a great passer in his second year. One of his favorite weapons, the bounce pass, has been a key to his success.

Where others only see a straight line for the ball to travel, he sees diagonals, obtuse angles and wormholes to pass through solid objects. He's the NBA equivalent of a quarterback that changes arm angles to create better throws. Giddey's personal twist on the bounce pass is to throw it one-handed in order to create better angles. To demonstrate, ask yourself: Is there an angle here to get the ball to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander? Second, they delay the arrival of the ball until his teammates can run to an open area of the floor. On the surface, Josh Giddey is a pretty good passer.
