Jordan Poole is currently -37.7 On-Off per 100 possessions which is significantly worse than any other Wizard this season (alien.top)

2nd worst on-off for the wizards is Mike Muscala at -25.3, but he has only played 64 minutes so far. The next worst is Tyus Jones at -23.5 with 381 minutes played, so Poole is -14.2 worse per 100 possessions than the next worst player getting starter minutes on his team. Has there ever been a player more detrimental towards winning than JP has been this season? I've legitimately never seen a comparably nightmarish on-off for a starter on any team in any season. Not a single player on any of the process 6ers rosters came close to half as poor of an on-off.

How are they gonna trade this dude? He’s great as a tank commander though. Just play him. Nba criticizes you if you bench your stars, so this is perfect for washington.

The only unfortunate thing is that because no one actually watches basketball people literally ran with the narrative that he and Kuzma are the same player just with a height difference. By association Kyle's reputation takes a hit.

tank commander, let him stay there until Cooper finishes up at Duke.

I didn't even notice that Wizards have such a nice plus score when Poole is not playing. A good sign for the team.

Draymond was right

Wizard just need to hire some baddies to sit court side. Rookie management mistake.

[–] cock-a-dooodle-do@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I follow dubs very closely. He is very entitled player who overrated his talent. He has a bad attitude that can be seen during his post-game interviews. Lucky for us, he balled out offensively during our championship run. But I am incredibly happy to not have him on our team anymore.

He owes facu compazzo so much money

In retrospect, it's pretty crazy that GSW won the title on the backs of Jordan Pool and Anthony Wiggins. Crazy to think of them as top-4-guys-on-a-title-team right now.

Poole coming off the bench gonna be crazy

Hmm sounds like some players he used to be on a team with were drawing attention and giving him passes to get easy shots.

Someone let his actual skill to get to his head while he lived in the shadow of real allstars.

[–] Waste-Worth-1047@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Nah, he legit carried that team for a stretch when the W's needed it. Then he kind of went back to the player he is. Got to give it to the guy though. He got a 100 million dollar contract out of the only 2 months of NBA level basketball he's played.

Poole Party became Pity Party. I'm starting to feel bad for this guy.

[–] Altruistic-Drawing25@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I think the only teams that could maybe turn Poole around are San Antonio or Miami, with outside shot at Memphis in an anime esque turn where Ja and Poole motivate eachother.

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

The thought Wiggins +- this season was pretty bad, sheesh poole is goat -

Q: Has there ever been a player more detrimental towards winning than JP has been this season?

A: JP last season.

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

Remember when Garnett said Poole would be the next Harden, likening Poole leaving GS with Harden leaving OKC back in the day.....
Also remember when Garnett said Thon Maker was a future MVP?
Yeah, Garnett has some of the worst takes in NBA history lol

[–] Dudedude88@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He is the goat tank commander. I don't know of a better tank commander.

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

It seems like he thinks hes playing at rucker park with a bunch of scrubs. I hope this humbles him

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

Warriors won this trade

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

I see no intention from him to actually win. At least Kuz with his tomfoolery still trying. This Will be the case study of how a player with his kind of mentality got the bag and the ring so early on his career and how an organization can mask your deficiency

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

I'd like a personal apology from all the guys telling me JP had a great chance to lead the league in scoring. He sucks. Has sucked and always will suck.
