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.

Problem with Poole was he doesn't want to be 2nd to nobody.. He hated the fact that he wasn't always given the green light despite his tendencies for turnovers and bad shot making. He doesn't want to be a part of a winning system, he wants to be the system.. He will flourish in DC, will have his stats bumped up, but that will not translate to winning.

That's what you get when you prioritize the bag and ego more than winning.
