    Still one of the greatest players of all time and a future hall of famer. He has nothing to prove anymore.

    I kinda fee bad for him bc he looks miserable. When they played eachother the first time he looked like he wanted to come back so bad.

    So, Poole is failing because his teammates want him to fail? Man, stop. Two things strike me immediately: one, while you’re saying Poole is being left alone on the court, you’re showing clips of his taking dumb shots while teammates with better shots await the ball. Second, the only non-rookie worse than him is Spencer Dinwiddie, who was also with the Wizards, was also labeled “snobbish” and whose teammates didn’t like him, and yet he’s been equally ineffective with Brooklyn and the Lakers.

    Bottom line: Poole. Can’t. Play. (But the Warriors not named Draymond told him he could.) Can I PLEASE get Stephen A’s salary? I was a professional analyst for 31 years.

    Draymond ruined his career for real… this is AB after the Hit

    Fumble for the Wizards. If you can give him the freedom he needs to play then its your fault as a franchise

    We were saying that as fans last season and was told it was cuz of Draymond, which could be considered accurate. Now I ask what the reason is. He’s gotten away from Draymond, has his own team, has his bag, has his ring. It’s definitely an attitude or personality issue now

  15. @tien5tri

    February 28, 2024 at 3:54 pm

    Draymond’s punch career ending. That dude is op

    You want to Give Him Reality Check? waived him. If he got a rest even for a Season im sure he will cherish being in the NBA when he come back.

  17. @localone1597

    He was a head case with the Warriors. You could tell by the body language curry, klay and Draymond didn’t like playing with him. I think by now everyone can understand why Draymond went after him. Don’t matter what his talent is if he’s out of control.

  18. @MsLive7777

    February 28, 2024 at 11:11 pm

    How about they look to the root of the problem which is how everyone blamed pool when Draymond Green punched them silly in the face. Nobody’s thinking about how that impacted pool he was 22 years old. Does anybody understand what that does? It was all over social media how do you know what is mental health is like yes he should be able to get the help he needs, but if everybody is ignoring the real issue here like that, Draymond Green, whom I love at the player got away with this with no consequences. Forget that 15 game suspension had nothing to do with poole. Green suffered no consequences for his actions. How do you think that looks to Poole from the outside looking in? It’s really sad that the NBA allows this type of behaviour and then they’re blaming the victim for his woes.

      I believe this whole issue with Draymond Green affected pool more than everybody knows, and I think that’s part of why his game is suffering. That’s no excuse, but we can’t ignore it, but we’re so political and NBA. Nobody wants to really own that especially Mr. commissioner.

    he has to win his team mates over if they are going to want to help him. him being a d…ick head and divas drove his team mates away from him. gotta leave by examples to win the team over. MJ, Kobe, Tim Duncan they all led by examples, first one at practice, last one to leave, pratice hard. none of this Poole has. having talent alone can get u get paid but it doesn’t garantee u would win in the nba.

    Draymond tried giving him an attitude adjustment and yall (the media) dragged Draymond for it. What JP needs is another 3 piece and a biscuit at practice 👊🏾

  21. @user-gr3pv3lu7e

    February 29, 2024 at 9:27 am

    Bro Jordan Poole does not want play to play with the wizards. He wasn’t happy when came here that’s why performing like that

  22. @user-gr3pv3lu7e

    February 29, 2024 at 9:31 am

    You see the video when he was out of bounds when supposed to pass the ball to the teammate, and he intentionally left the ball to go in bounds when the mavericks pick it up

  23. @andrewholland853

    February 29, 2024 at 12:57 pm

    He needs a personality check😂😂, bro he got one last yr and has NEVER recovered. Why talk about him, should be talkin SGA and his MVP erryday

    Draymond punched the talent out of him

    . Unbelievers and people who are not obedient to the will of God will always hate Jordan Poole who is a chosen to fulfill God’s purpose wherever he is!

    He is not moved by any negative thing people say or do to him and he does not allow people to control him or make him bow to their egos. He loves people, but does trust everybody to be a friend!

    Poole is going to stand up for what he believes is right. He does not agree with nonsense. He is a hard working and
    confident champion!

    Poole pleases God and that is all that matters. He loves people, but he is not a people pleaser. He is great discerner of people and he can see right through people. This makes people nervous!

    When people can’t control Poole, they hate him and say all manner of negative things about him. Poole does not allow people to manipulate him, intimidate him, or dominate him to control him.

    He is unstoppable because God’s hand is upon him. Poole knows this, and stays in peace and patience while keeping his faith and trust in God! Poole knows when one door closes, God has closed it and will open a other door for him that only God can close.
