people are trashing this guy, but this isn't isolated, i doubt he's acting like this because of a single missed pass.

if you're playing with a point guard you are expected to get a pass every now and then. good point guards get other players involved, which always leads to the team playing better

I hate how no one seems to understand this. Having a point guard that doesn’t move the ball around usually means that the other players on the team will be ball stoppers when they get passed the ball. The ball movement for the Wizards is going to suck with Poole jacking up shots.

Wizards with the new heliocentric Doncic offense, except it's Poole lmao

The only teammate I didn't enjoy playing with was a PG that never passed until he decided that he couldn't score.

He’s a shooting guard though. It’s right there in the name

[–] Mikegetscalls@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

He definitely gonna shoot that mf

Those people have clearly never played anything close to competitive ball in their lives.

JP is playing the 2 guard and had 7/7 wizards points here before the shot goes in. Why is a 29 percent 3 point shooter mad that his teammate who is hot is taking a heat check instead of passing it to him at the 3 point line? JP had 9/9 of their points after this btw if you couldn't hear the swish. Deni is literally mad his hot teammate took and made a shot that's easy for him .

This is the truth right here. If Poole was 1-6 before this shot I totally understand the frustration.

If your teammate is feeling it, let him cook!

  1. Poole isn't their point guard.
  2. Wizards actually had a good ball movement.

I mean, the warriors dumped him for a reason. And not just cause of the Draymond situation

[–] misterrunon@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

And a year ago they also gave him a $130+ million contract.

Well Kobe didn't seem to need it.
