Josh Giddey nearly had a perfect triple double

[Im Still Ballin]

- 23 minutes played
- 13 points, 10 rebounds, 12 assists, 3 blocks, 1 turnover
- 5/5 FG, 3-3 FT

He's been really good for OKC over the last 20+ games. OKC is really hard to beat when he's playing well. Gives them a legitimate secondary ball handler and playmaker. Someone who can create plays when things stagnate.

Triple doubles and teen *****, Giddey is winning at life.

I feel bad for the guy... his performance is being overshadowed from all the other crap.

dudes reputation sings like Akons song


As life goes onI'm starting to learn more and more about responsibility
I realize that everything I do is affecting the people around me
So I wanted to take this time out
To apologize for things that I've done
And things that haven't occurred yet
And things that they don't wanna take responsibility for
I'm sorry that it took so long to see
That they were dead wrong tryna put it on me
I'm sorry that it took so long to speak
But I was on tour with Gwen Stefani
I'm sorry for the hand that she was dealt
For the embarrassment that she felt
Just a little young girl tryna have fun
Her daddy should've never let her out that young
I'm sorry for Club Zen getting shut down
I hope they manage better next time around
How was I to know she was underage?
In a twenty one and older club they say
Why doesn't anybody wanna take blame?
Verizon backed out, disgracing my name
I'm just a singer tryna entertain
Because I love my fans, I'll take that blame
Even though the blame's on you
Even though the blame's on you
Even though the blame's on you
I'll take that blame from you
And you can put that blame on me
And you can put that blame on me
You can put that blame on me
And you can put that blame on me
And you can put that blame on me

And you can put that blame on me

Idk if I can feel bad for him, really depends on if he's actually on some weirdo shit or not. Last year he did put up prime Ben Simmons numbers so he clearly has the talent to be a good all-around player & maybe even a potential All-Star but he needs to develop his J. At least he's not scared to shoot jumpers and this year he's at 37% on 3s and he can make the occasional mid-range jumper at a pretty efficient rate too. He's been in the league for a while now but he's still just 21 and younger than Chet.

Giddey over his last 10 games:

- 24.5 minutes per game
- 12.8 ppg, 6.4 rpg, 5.6 apg, 0.6 spg, 0.6 bpg, 2.0 topg
- 55.7% FG, 44.4% 3PT, 83.3% FT, 65.2% TS
- +13.1

:bowdown:

Giddey over his last 25 games:

- 23.7 minutes per game
- 11.7 ppg, 6.3 rpg, 4.4 apg, 0.8 spg, 0.4 bpg, 2.1 topg
- 48.1% FG, 42.5% 3PT, 82.4% FT, 56.8% TS
- +5.9

:bowdown:

That's great production for a 4th/5th option on a contending #1 seed. I look for good three-point shootiing and a strong assist-to-turnover ratio. He's hitting those marks recently. If he can play like the Dallas old-man version of Jason Kidd with worse defense, that'd be dope!

If him and Dort are making their threes then its over

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey will not face charges stemming from a police investigation into whether he had an improper relationship with an underage girl (https://www.tmz.com/2024/01/17/oklahoma-city-thunder-josh-giddey-cleared-underage-relationship-investigation/) … TMZ Sports has learned. Newport Beach PD tells us the case — which was launched back in November — is officially closed … after officials found no corroborating evidence.

Our sources told us at the time that the minor and her family were unwilling to cooperate with investigators … which was a major roadblock in the process. (https://www.tmz.com/2024/01/17/oklahoma-city-thunder-josh-giddey-cleared-underage-relationship-investigation/) We were also told the minor even lawyered up with prominent attorney Gloria Allred.

Giddy-cent!

[warriorfan]

They aren’t pressing charges on him either

Big Win for the Gidd

[Kblaze8855]

I doubt a payoff would even be necessary. The extreme extreme vast majority of the time these things happen don’t result in charges. I guess it’s possible, considering she somehow hired Gloria Allred. That’s the woman from the OJ trial. She’s probably the most prominent female lawyer In history aside from those who ended up on the Supreme Court. Probably the biggest practicing female lawyer, so you throw out people like Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama. I don’t know what her upfront costs are, but I don’t imagine broke people can even get that number.

Maybe the girls family is rich.

hope he gets fouled hard on every posession. the league needs to have its own enforcement.

[Xiao Yao You]

the league could still punish him if they thought it was warranted

[warriorfan]

it would also be ideal if someone gave you a hard foul every time you picked up a chimichanga. it is what it is

It's crazy to me how much misinformation was spread about this issue.

1) There were two different girls
2) The one Josh was alleged to have had sex with was the older one in the Snapchat photo that said "Just ****ed Josh Giddey"
3) That girl was born early 2005
4) The alleged incident occurred in 2022 when Josh was 19 and she was 17
5) He met her in a 18+ club
6) Josh immediately told OKC about it back in 2022

As far as the younger girl, I have no idea. But the person who leaked this stuff tried to make it look like the same girl. Like one chronological storyline. But anyone with two eyes could see it was a different girl.

The whole thing was insane. It was a good litmus test to see who all the autistic virgins were

Josh Giddey might be in the clear legally, but he is still under his employer’s microscope — the NBA’s review into claims he had an improper relationship with a minor remains ongoing, TMZ Sports has learned (https://www.tmz.com/2024/01/18/josh-giddey-remains-under-nba-review-after-police-end-underage-investigation/?adid=social-tws). Sources tell us nothing has changed as far as the Association is concerned … despite Newport Beach PD recently closing its investigation without the 21-year-old Oklahoma City Thunder guard being charged.

19 and 17? He was a grown man and she was an innocent flower and he stole that from her. Break out the firing squad. Dude deserves death. Death and she gets all of his money.

There is also speculation, and I stress, SPECULATION not confirmed or substantiated facts, that the family of the girl was unwilling to cooperate because if this was pursued further the girl and the parents could possibly be incriminated with her lying and going into an 18+ night club as a minor.

that's why she got a lawyer lol, to protect her from backfire. and it's not speculation, it's just the smart thing to do when talking to the police...you shut da fukk up so you don't incriminate yourself and allow your legal counsel to speak on your behalf. there's also the matter of using an attorney as leverage for a payoff, which absolutely happened.
