Be it for any of us to criticise KG’s outlook and opinion on a player. This is a little hyperbolic though.
Poole’s first crack at a full time starting job and the 1b/Robin role to Kuz’ Batman in Washington. He’s had his moments with the Warriors with/without Steph but their system and the talent around him plus the fact he’s not nightly at the top of scouting reports, made that a much easier transition for him than this is in DC.
I don’t think Poole is ever truly gonna be an elite starting SG and may be destined to be a 6th man, but too early to make the final conclusion. Decent chance the Wizards look to trade him soon as it is.

None of that has anything to do with Poole’s attitude, though, and that’s the main thing that has KG riled uo - not poor play.
