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.
