His ego is built off of absolutely nothing. Maybe one game in the Finals that year they won, but other than that, he mainly throws bricks. And got carried by a team filled with Steph, Draymond, Kray, a team that had already won 3 rings prior to that. Jordan Poole all hyped off of one like he the man, but he hasn't proved shit. I don't know if he's always had this ego, but he has absolutely nothing to show for it. Even the one ring really isn't HIS.

You see, there's so many players out there in the league that, even if they get the ring, if they weren't a big contributor to that ring, they feel they still gotta chase another ring to prove that they actually put in the work and performance to earn that ring, and not just rode the coattails of the starters to get a ring. You see it with people like (sorry not throwing shade but IDK many names) Patrick McCaw. Does he have 3 rings? Yes. But was he the number one option on any of those teams? The number two option? The number 3 option? The number 4 option? No.

Jordan Poole is like that, but has one ring, and an insanely inflated ego over nothing. He doesn't even understand the game, I KNOW y'all saw that clip of him rolling the ball up the court with like 4 minutes left in a game that they were down by 10 in. He just wants to act like a big guy, like the man, like he knows what he's doing. But he doesn't know shit, and has this crazy big ego over absolutely nothing (save for one game in the Finals, Game 5).
