The off-season grew more interesting

3 Championships runs, 1 ring, and a contract latter guard Jordan Poole has an opportunity to be the number one option on a young Wizards team. The wizards have never been strangers to big names such as John Wall, Russel Westbrook, Bradley Beal, Paul Pierce, etc. HOWEVER only one of the players mentioned had championship experience.

With a solid running mate with Kuzma, how far could the wizards go? Or as the title states, is this Beal 2.0

    Kuz and Poole can care all they want about winning but they’re just not good enough for that to actually matter

      This sub has a hate bonner for Kuz and Poole. But the reality is, Kuz is a big reason why Wizards weren’t a bottom 5 team the last two seasons and Warriors don’t win a championship without Jordan Poole playing the way he did.

        lmao if the wizards weren’t a bottom-5 team the past two years they were pretty damn close to it and very clearly bottom 10 if you want to be generous. And that’s with Beal and Porzingis, both of whom are better than Kuzma and Poole.

        You can say the same about them getting bounced out of the second round last season and be just as accurate.
