i dunno, maybe Beilein restrained his usage when he was here, mostly deploying him offball, but he wasn’t this good in college.
In a dream world, the Pistons would use their cap space on him. Jordan Poole next to Cade and Saddiq Bey would be so cool.
I don’t really buy the Simpson thing hampering Poole that much. He had opportunities that year behind just being Caleb Houstan in the corner. I know he and Beilein didn’t always see eye to eye, but they needed Poole to shoot and score that year and he just was very inconsistent. Not to mention that he was a bad defender.
Kudos to him for working hard to make it in the NBA. There were a lot of times that things could have gone differently for him but it is awesome to see how it worked out
I was in a room full of Buckeyes hehehe
For most of that post-game interview I was afraid that his personality had gotten sanded away, but he popped a joke and that smile at the end.
Just looked at Poole’s contract and the age of Steph, Klay and Draymond, I think GSW is going to try to get him the bag without really maxing it out. GSW has stumbled upon the potential smooth transition plan from Steph era to the young Warriors by sucking the last few seasons by virtue of Steph’s, Dray’s and Klay’s injuries.
EDIT: Just looked up Poole’s contract situation. He’s eligible for the rookie extension of 5 years and $184 million so I’m guessing that they’re going to offer him close to it after this season. Wiggins have one year left in his contract and he’s likely going to walk after it with Kuminga as his natural replacement.
Feel bad for Jokic lol He’s not surrounded by much.
He’s having a better season than last season and he didn’t have Murray and MPJ for pretty much all season long. That’s part of the reason why I think he’ll win the MVP.
I don’t think MVP is that cut and dry. Not that today defines Jokic, but it highlighted defensive deficiencies that Ebiid and Giannis don’t exhibit. I
It was optimum at that point.
The Warriors really need to trade Poole to the Pacers for Goga Bitazde before they regret missing out on that golden opportunity.

Keeping track of Matt McQuaid off ball apparently more difficult than getting a buck in the NBA playoffs 
Could use a confirmation but I think Duncan just set a record for most 3s in a playoff game in Heat history.
I guess Duncan didn’t was Poole getting all of the attention. Going 8-9 from three is crazy! If Houstan comes back we really need Duncan working with him this summer.
I was sure that going 8/9 on threes has to be some kind of record.
It’s the franchise playoff record for 3s in a game.
Really impressive when you remember Dan Majerle spent some time in Miami, and Glen MF Rice.
Our 2018 team was viewed as an overachieving team that played above its talent but the truth is that was a super talented squad. Really a shame and failure to not get at least one b1g regular season title between Walton’s last year, 2018 and 2019.
