      That’s why he’s saying he’s so disappointed. He stepped up defending him and now Poole is acting like this.

      He did, that’s why he’s so mad lol. He’s disappointed and also probably feels kind of foolish for that take

    He’s saying what he needs to say to him to get his attention and hopefully wake him tf up. But out of the league for real is harsh. He needs to go back to the bench until he proves he’s worthy of starting and being a leader, muchless helping his team win.

        They’d be losing regardless but I’m sure they at least hoped that Poole would end up with some trade value or they could start developing a better culture for when they have a team capable of winning.

      It’s not harsh it’s the truth.

      Poole will be out of the league. No one likes him. No one. No one wants to play with him.

      He doesn’t provide veteran presence, huge net negative +/-, plays no defense, ruins chemistry, terrible AAU chucker offense, and disrespects teammates and coaching staff.

      He’s done for. It’s who he is. He’s not going to change

    He’s not wrong. Whoever is Poole’s manager, that person is also accountable for letting Poole go to this attitude of shit. Probably why Green ended up punching him.

    He sucks, although it is a bit funny that with Ayton people always repeat obsessively “he’s not a bust 1st pick, he has 17 points per game, that’s great career duh!!!”, and the same with some other guys, while with Jordan Poole the ppg does nothing to save him lol.

    Same with Wiseman btw. Warriors are like a death’s kiss in that regard, maybe it’s actually bad to play in a team that people actually watch.

    I will argue that the Poole Draymond situation and how it was handled destroyed both of them and the Warriors. You had two guys that kind fit together; Draymond is now in the twilight of his career with a high basketball IQ but cannot create his own offense, Poole is young and makes bad mistakes and doesn’t have Draymond’s defensive intensity. They covered each other’s deficiency. Right now, the Warriors could use the energy of Poole, and Poole needs the mentorship of Draymond Clay and Steph. Also, I wonder if someone told Poole that his legacy was secure so he would join in the tank, and he was naive enough to believe it.

    Jesus, can we stop with the hyperbole? From the next curry to doesn’t belong in the league?

    Can we just be rational and recognize that he’s a microwave role player and not a star

    All I’ll say is I won a fantasy league with salary cap in Poole’s championship year, because he was the cheapest high scorer in the league and I drafted him cause of his g-league madness. I had big hopes for him, and I feel the disappointed dad in KG’s voice more than anger.
