We see after every season how people turn on players in the recent years after giving them so much praise and how they uplift one player after one season

    He didn’t suck with Curry. He just sucked in general last season even though he played better as a starter. He was starting next to Curry when the Warriors got off to that amazing start in the first half of the season 2 years ago before they slowed down due to injuries.

      Warriors had a great winning record when Poole was replacing Curry in the starting lineup (and Wiggins was not playing in most if not all of those games too). And Poole was scoring most ppg.

      Generally the standard is, a player scoring most ppg is called “the best player”, and if the team also wins, then people go crazy about him. That’s just a fact about what everyone here says.

      So I think I would not be surprised if Poole can go only up - from, hm, a lot of people saying Wizards are the league’s 30th team now.
