Poole bad, now give me karma!

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

bro, itʻs Pooleʻs behaviour thatʻs got Garnett pissed. Not his talent.

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

Poole's closed. Party's over.

[–] ChaseBank5@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Lol didn't he say Poole was going to go off this year?

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

That’s why he’s saying he’s so disappointed. He stepped up defending him and now Poole is acting like this.

He's saying what he needs to say to him to get his attention and hopefully wake him tf up. But out of the league for real is harsh. He needs to go back to the bench until he proves he's worthy of starting and being a leader, muchless helping his team win.

I thought the Wizards idea was to lose, intentionally.

Poole ruined his lay lmaoo

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

didn't KG say a month ago that Jordan Poole is the next Harden?

[–] Confident_Birthday_7@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Wouldn’t that explain why he’s pissed off in this clip?

[–] zackaria00@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What happened to his the new James Harden?

[–] AdventurousImage2440@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Poole cannot jump 2 foot so he will never be good

[–] Salman1969@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm a Heat fan and I hate Garnnet and Pierce. However, one thing I can say is that they were big time players with a lot of heart. Jordan Poole is an embarrassment and everthing Garnett says is true.

It’s the fact that Poole is bringing these clownshow antics here and it’s fine for now bc we’re trying to tank but he’s barely playing basketball. He’s laying on the floor every other play, clown shit like that timeout they referenced, etc. His trade value is through the floor now so he’s shot our already rough start to a rebuild in the foot. I can’t even watch Wizards games rn it’s embarrassing to watch in a whole different way than just being a bad team

KG was mad yo, and rightfully so. I was one of those who though Poole could do something special and watching him play some of the most selfish, braindead, basketball is a different type of special. I honestly think they need to run it through Kuz and Deni and let Poole get back to GSW Poole. Let him adjust slowly cause 1st option Poole is not it.

However, they could just be tanking but Poole is playing a serious villain if so because I do put almost all blame on him and thats rare from me, yes they have other problems but Poole to me makes it all worse.

[–] need2peeat218am@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Nah bad coaching and Poole being stupid to begin with is making him worse. You can't expect a dumb player to figure it out on their own no matter how talented they are.

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

Tbh kuz is already the first option, earlier in the season unseld was benching poole to close some games. Just these past couple games poole has decided to hijack it and just chuck

Damn, you know you’re cheeks when you’re a young n**ga but still can’t get KG’s dick hard

[–] Happy295@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Could Draymond have done legitimate psychological damage to Poole that's still affecting him?

The last person you want disgusted with you in NBA circles has got to be KG. Guy doesnt hold back at all in any situation. Ive never looked at honey nut cheerios the same since the 2000s.

[–] QUEST50012@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What are you talking about, they've never tasted better after that.

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

"I'm crushed" lmao

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

Gotta be crazy to hear a legend talk about you in that way, before the season started he predicted that JP was gonna go hard too smh.

I hope JP starts balling out by Allstar Weekend.

[–] pureply101@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (4 children)

The more I watch of Poole the more I understand why he got punched in the face. Like seriously.

That was quick

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

He went from being the third splash brother hosting Poole parties to simply Jordan Poo

[–] HappyHunt1778@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah no shit, dude belongs in an assisted living facility

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

but i thought the Wizards were his team. lol

[–] bothcheeks415@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I love KG & Pierce’s chemistry—their energies complement each other well. Yin/Yang.

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

Can't help but think this is why Dray knocked him out.

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

So no 60 balls?

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

baddies in shambles

[–] Afraid-Department-35@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Kg isn't wrong. Poole really has no right to flex his ring lol, my dude got carried to it by one of the greatest shooters of all-time.

[–] dude5million@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

something about the lighting in this video makes it seem ai-generated

Jordan fool!

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

KG is the best and I could listen to him critique players all day long - but only if PP is also sitting there.

GOAT ex-player duo.

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

KG will never be my kind of talkshow/podcaster, but man, do I respect the hell out of him.

Not only is he one of the most positive "old-heads", but he's open about the fact he was wrong about a dude. Very few of the NBA media guys are so open in discussing how wrong they were. He clearly isn't dissing him for his inefficiency or game play, but he has no time for a leader that has a bad attitude.

He is a 69er

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

Be it for any of us to criticise KG's outlook and opinion on a player. This is a little hyperbolic though.

Poole's first crack at a full time starting job and the 1b/Robin role to Kuz' Batman in Washington. He's had his moments with the Warriors with/without Steph but their system and the talent around him plus the fact he's not nightly at the top of scouting reports, made that a much easier transition for him than this is in DC.

I don't think Poole is ever truly gonna be an elite starting SG and may be destined to be a 6th man, but too early to make the final conclusion. Decent chance the Wizards look to trade him soon as it is.

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

None of that has anything to do with Poole's attitude, though, and that's the main thing that has KG riled uo - not poor play.

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

Kevin Garnett is so fucking cool man

[–] Shoddy_Basket_7867@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Why are they wearing sunglasses?

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

KG always had love and respect for the game. Poole's attitude and demeanor on the court really struck a nerve with KG

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

“Shorty had him in the parlay lord” 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

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

Dumb move to put your investments in a single player like that anyway. He'd be better off diversifying with a 2023 Rookie ETF or the contender ETF Bucket of Bucks, Celtics, and Nuggets.

[–] HItide69@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I agree KG fuck clowns like him and harden ship their asses out
