Jordan you’re an absolute liability.

[–] Chattypath747@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

1 ring and thinking his legacy as a basketball player is fine.

Poole is only 4 years in and he is talking like retirement is just around the corner.

[–] trenham99@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

When you get a contract for 130 mil plus endorsements I mean retirement is always on the table.. if he doesn’t enjoy it then he can just walk away. He’s got fuck you money now. No need to dance for his feed.

He’s not wrong, winning that ring while being a meaningful contributor is a big part of why he got the bag he did

Kind of absurd but it’s not like he didn’t contribute to that title. They don’t win it without him.

[–] gigglios@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They most likely do. He was a liability in the finals. He wasnt needed to beat the non contendersnin the west

[–] Godreaperrr@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (7 children)

That was a weird title run i swear i remember steph and wiggins being the only good GS players those finals dray and poole both got benched at different points

[–] Supreme_God_Bunny@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

People don't wanna admit it but draymond was kinda ass in the finals, He had some good moments no doubt but it was honestly Steph/Wiggins/Poole/Looney in the first 4-5 games, Shit even tho Klay didn't have the best performance he still had way more crucial shots to help them when they was down.

[–] goblue202320242025@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Steph did a lot that postseason even klay was meh in the finals. Wiggins was their second best player which I guess adds to the steph legacy for that season

[–] sriracha82@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

JP played less and less bc of defense as the playoffs went on, but he was good in the 16 minutes he’d get vs the Celtics because his shotmaking was on fire.

Basically did what an ideal 6th man should do

What do you find absurd? Literally all he said is that winning a ring and being financially set means he can focus on enjoying his work.

[–] Numerous-Cicada3841@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I don’t think his legacy is “taken care of”. He can go down as a guy that peaked for a season or two and never lived up to that. Or he could a star player the Warriors regret letting go. Or anywhere in between.

Jordan Poole gonna be telling his kids in a couple years that he was the MVP of the 2022 NBA Finals, and that he was the Splash Daddy and carried the Splash Bros and Donkey.

Is he wrong though.

Stop with this Kyrie/Doc Rvers shit where y'all try to take away their ring because you don't like them.

[–] Arooooooooooooooo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (15 children)

Bro contributed heavily towards a Ring and got himself a $130m deal. His career has been a massive personal success for him.

His running mate Lyle Luzma also has a ring so I can see those two just being an awful fit with each other attitude wise.

Sorry Wizards fans.

[–] Various_Cricket4695@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (6 children)

Right now, the over/under for Wiz wins is 24.5. I can’t get to a casino for another week. Can’t wait to bet the under.

[–] Notorious_Beebs@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Post a pic of your bet slip. We hope you are right

He's not wrong if he wants to be remembered as a valuable contributur to a title team. But I get the feeling he wants to be seen as a top tier guy in that case he needs to win one as a top 3 player on his team

[–] jseng27@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

[–] Kataneo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He’s already better than Charles Barkley in my books

[–] uptown-hippy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (11 children)

He is already calling it a career. Washington is so screwed lol

That’s definitely one way to look at your career.

I can’t wait to tell my grandkids where I was when Jordan Poole won his ring

[–] Ghetteuax@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

lmaooo sooo if we read between the lines what is he really saying??

[–] HailOfThorns@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He was definitely critical in helping us get the ring in 22, and I'll always be thankful of that. Wouldn't say he's completely wrong, but I hope this doesn't mean he stopped caring about winning. That was the problem with him last year (albeit understandable because of getting punched in the face).

[–] Dodson-504@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He is right. If nothing else but an empty stat bucket on lotto teams for the next 10 years he at least got a ring plus a payday.

[–] MrAppleSpoink@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I unironically think there would’ve been more punishment for Draymond if Jordan Poole was even slightly likeable.
