The Jordan Poole trade will be considered one of the worst of all time (alien.top)

Despite his defensive shortcomings, he’s shown elite shotmaking in the playoffs and is only 24. In my opinion, his ceiling is enormous. I can’t understand why people are praising the Warriors trading him for a 38 year old CP3.

Don't you think if he was even half as good you think he is that the warriors wouldn't have just kept him?

He was not just bad on defense, he actively refuses to play defense and goes so far as to die on screens so that he doesn't have to try. Couple that with his immense turnover issues, slipping and sliding all over the court... like.. no. He was literally losing minutes and getting benched in the playoffs because he was so awful.
