Evan Tuner sounds like he's talking with coks in the mouth ..DA fuq

[@MonstaRoe]

JJ You need to apologize to Kendrick Perkins for talking down to him for speaking on what actually happens in the Voting of the MVP in the NBA. You should of looked into it, instead of coming at him like he was wrong. when in fact you was wrongly speaking out of turn; You called him “irresponsible” if I remember correctly, when you was in that moment… Shaq has said similar things and other big named guys also! Would you sit in the faces of those men that actually knows because they was good enough to be up for it and talk to them like you did KP? That was such a huge step back from that article you wrote about black peoples plight. Made me think you was an ally of the truth and justice but I was wrong about your mindset.

I understand the Draymond punch affected him but he was more polished in the championship year than last year. He went from torching the Nuggets to slipping on invisible banana peels every possession

[@Awkward_Inc3l]

When will yall understand they pay these players to throw games.

[@DoesRocksFloat]

There's only so much leeway you can give for the punch. But Poole was sucking the whole season and showed no improvement on both ends. Playmaking was inconsistent and defense was non-existent.

Not for nothing Andre Igoudala is and has been one of my favorite people in the nba. Aside from him being an underrated monster in his prime he’s incredibly humble, a great locker room guy/ leader (according to ppl that have played with him) then on top of that he’s very candid and objective when he’s on podcasts. Not many people can walk the fine line of a harsh and open criticism all while keeping it completely professional/ respectful and iggy is definitely one of the few. If he chooses so, he’s going to have a great sport media career

Jordan Poole did not win game 5 , it was Andrew Wiggins who won that. Jordan had 14 pts, Andrew had 26 points, 13 rebounds.

[@thomassutton679]

@@estupedude21 That's bullshit. Credit where credit is due JP had good moments but that game was absolutely Andrew Wiggins' game. There were even some retards saying he could win finals MVP if he outplayed Steph in game 6. You can't say JP won that game because of specific moments because that logic can apply to anyone who played that game.

[@myweirdsecondchannelwithap9070]

@@estupedude21 nobody seems to understand this. Celtics are making a comeback after warriors leading most of the game and they have all the momentum, then poole hits that shot as the 3rd quarter ends giving the warriors the lead again and changes everything. That's also why I think Poole probably won the warriors game 6 too, he was the catalyst of the 21-0 run which was too much for the celtics to come back from.

[@Marmarisher]

Exactly!!!

[@KevinGrantandayolofortheroad]

I have been waiting for someone credible to put words to the JP situation with the team this way for months!! Thank you as always Andre for finally being the person to speak facts. So much of the media around this is so mind boggled on the relationship or loves to only focus on the punch and some awful feud. NAH. JP a sniper but he's no second fiddle. The man was hitting half court bank shots in the finals, he needs a loose leash. But when you got 3 stars that need the same leeway, that multiplies the magnitude of JP coming down the floor and hitting a double hesi and the ball flying straight into the stands. I think there should be no love lost as he is that dude, and in 3-5 years this could've been his team, but no hate on him not wanting to wait on that.

[@steverogers9894]

[@ANGELOFDARKification]

JJ got it spot on. GSW need another Shaun Livingston archetypal PG type player off the bench. The only issue is Klay isn't what he used to be so Wiggins or someone else has to step up scoring wise.

[@MandoGuerrero2]

Wiggins was their second best player when they won their chip in 22. When he wants to and is asked to step up he does.

[@simonanderson4858]

@@MandoGuerrero2 He did't quite have it after the time off last season. Hopefully he springs back

[@jimcroce620]

I've never watched a professional ball player slip as many times as JP, and I'm not even exaggerating. If you watched enough Warrior games, you'd know Jordan Poole slipping and losing the ball in a game is almost as certain as death and taxes.

[@ShumileSwift]

JJ Redick is such an intelligent guy. Such a good podcaster its so entertaining to watch.

[@figuredrawing4912]

[@drewskii777]

He was a huge part of why they won a chip… they couldn’t have done it without Poole

[@djdoc06]

1:48 this take on Jordan Poole 100% confirms everything I suspected when I watched him on the court. And ironic thing is that he is not smart enough to be a winner when he is given freedom. He didn’t recognize that he only did well before because he played within the system. Smart defenders literally happy to go to Poole Island and bait him into doing the same mistakes. Poole thinks that he is the 2nd leading scorer because he was 2nd best player, when the reality is that he was 2nd leading scorer because opponents picked him as their poison.

[@djkeefer76]

Andre, you da man!! I love your perspective, and I am so happy you came back to the Warriors. Love your insight!

[@therockneverstops8261]

Not all points are created equal when it comes to Jordan Poole. His lack of efficiency and ability to make others better is the main reason his scoring is not valued as much for a team with Championship aspirations. As much as he won the GSW a game in the finals he was also unplayable for multiple rounds of the playoffs because of his lack of defense and efficiency. 🤷🏾‍♂️ go figure..

He was 3rd on the team in scoring. Klay averaged 22 ppg

[@trysephiroth007]

He also lead the team in total points last year and was second in points per 36. Guess it depends on what stat you want to look at for points.

[@mrelove72]

This is kinda disrespectful for everyone in this discussion to keep saying Poole was 2nd in scoring, when he was actually 3rd. For a player to come back after 2 years, no offseason training, only to then lead the league in 3 pointers, averaging 22ppg is crazy to me.

[@Zaghzackio]

Trust me they weren't trying to disrespect Klay with those comments.

[@Masoch1st]

poole still played more games and scored more points. so its not wrong to say he was second in scoring. he only scored around 80 more points though.

[@mrelove72]

@Masoch1st Well, if that's the case, Steph played in fewer games than Klay during the regular season, so they should probably acknowledge who Poole was 2nd to. I'm guessing they was trying to say 2nd to Steph, which is why I thought it was disrespectful.

[@mrelove72]

In the Warrior organization's point of view, the main point is about "are you really the future of the team"?. J Poole has proven himself to be a valuable piece of the team but has he proven himself to be "the future of the team"? The clear answer is unfortunately no. The Warrior organization saw him as a no, and the players also saw him as a no.

Great trade for both teams in theory. They need a true point since Iggy and Livingston are gone... and somehow they couldn't replace them. Not loving the direction of the team resigning the core for 4 more years. They got beat down in the post season and on all their road games... it was time for a shake up.

[@1blackone]

Seems like you and Poole had the same thoughts about Draymond! It's now being reported wait Poole said to Draymond: "You're an expensive backpack for 30"

[@darylpogi77rogelio57]

The draymonds punch had a mental effect on jpoole but its not that much. Poole's performance on the championship run made coaches be aware of him. The lakers scouted him well and found out his court habits and tendencies and made him fumble the ball everytime.

[@djdoc06]

Poole was a big problem, I’m so glad he’s gone. Incredibly poor decisions on offense, zero attempt to play defense, petulant child, playing 100% on emotion. He won a game in the finals, but he lost games too. So glad Iguodala is acknowledging the problem. Everybody else is playing high road.

[@theblazingblaziken1951]

What so many people ignore is the fact that he was awful offensively and defensively last season. Sure the numbers looked good but no matter what lineup he was in he was a hindrance in some way and the numbers reflect that. The attitude problems as well as the fact that he is one of the worst decision makers and primary ball handlers in the league makes it all even worse.
