Man, I really like Giffey. He is one of my favorites on the team. But when I listen to some of you rave about him, it just makes me think of his limitations. People who felt after the first 2 games that NG would shoot 100% for the year, should notice that his shooting percentage, while great, continues to head back to earth. And, unlike Bazz, he never feels forced to take a less than very good shot.
I like his defense (much more than OC but less than LK). I like his rebounding better than our bigs who can't rebound but less than our guards (who are awesome). He can't create his own shot like DD, SN & RB but more than people who have no ability to do so (OC, AB, PN)
He is a good player. He is not the second coming. He has gotten more minutes compared to the start of the year. Did that result in what you expected? Have his points gone up with his minutes? No plays called for him then either.
So, if you think this is because KO is too stupid, or too biased against the kid, I think you are wrong. Ooh! There is a way to improve our offense but I will ignore it! Why? Biased or stupid?
Again, I really like Giffey. Until threads like these
If 2 or 3 years ago you were posting the same thing about Olander, you must disqualify yourself from posting. If you are just an excitable UCONN fan, consider that NG is human, and that usually coaches know more than us.
