Unbeknownst to many at the time though, was a growing problem with Giddens’ attitude. Finally in late February Giddens was suspended indefinitely from the team.

He's 2 inches too short and has way too little resume to even BEGIN to compare with PP. After a bit of reflection, this guy's makeup kind of reminds me of Tony Allen as far as the defensive upside. Offensively, I have no idea. You'd think he'd have a decent midrange shot to sport a 50% FG rate, but from 3pt range he is 30%... I'll have to see him play in the NBA to get a better idea but I doubt he gets much PT. We've got a logjam at wing.
