    Poole has filled in the defensive tenacity in our guard play we’ve been missing since Cade went down. Absolute game changer for us.

  2. KingPe0n

    He’s young, he’s developing, and he’s awesome…

    But ouch. He has to work on his handles.

  3. iRockaflame

    Now we can post the Poole/Simons/Herro question again and wait for one of them to have a bad game and ask it again

  4. The-Truer-Facts

    He’s tied 8th per game. Bad, but not like he’s doing something out of the ordinary.

  5. KhakiSpoon

    That sloppy ass crossover never works and at this point I’m sure it’s on the scouting report

  6. Thats surprising. I thought it’d be Westbrook or sm

  7. imminentjogger5

    he’s a 3rd guard that shoots first and has the most turn overs in the league. That is extremely telling.

  8. Next-Firefighter-753

    Plays like an ADHD kid in the clutch

  9. Altruistic-Twist-379

    STOP OVERTHINKING YOUR HANDLES AND GET BETTER SHOES LIKE DAMN.

  10. Signature-Wooden

    That’s crazy when Russ churns them out. Another 7 today. If he wasn’t playing off the bench it would be a tight race I’d say

  11. Accomplished-Pear988

    He also carried the shit out of the ball

  12. NephewChaps

    He’s the anti-clutch personified. Every time he has the ball on crunch time it’s either a terrible turnover or a badly selected shot

  13. CursedSkeleton69

    This guys f$#king killing me!!! One things for sure is he’s not worthy of being a starter. Curry can’t come back soon enough to put Poole back into his 6th man slot.

  14. yosemite_marx

    So why is this not a kick ball thats a rule I’ve never understood cause I don’t think it needs to be intentional

  15. yosemite_marx

    He cooked the shit out of burks not long before this thought he was gonna do it again

  16. KyleShanaham

    Looks like his foot slipped like a foot or so causing him to stumble. Still unacceptable

  17. cyb3ryung

    I love self deprecation as much as the next guy but it sucks that every time Poole or Klay messes up the main ones trashing them are Dubs fans. but there’s not as many of y’all around when they play well

    I love Poole. They don’t win any of these games while Steph has been out without him. But some of these turnovers… like just make the simple play. There’s no need for the fancy highlight.

    Thankfully he’s only 23 and will hopefully learn and grow from these but sheesh.

  19. CreepyDepartment5509

    He kicked the ball with his foot, why is that okay

  20. Slipping on that crossover is karma for that massive carry

    Hand completely under the ball

  21. Imagine losing the dribble when your hand is completely under the ball

    You’re already carrying it and getting away with it

    Jordan can score and very talented, I’ll give him that, but he plays too much hero ball. I notice that whenever he’s in the starting line up when either Klay or Steph is not playing.

    Donte save his ass against the Blazers and Hawks and in the Hawks game you can see Klay gesturing to Jordan that Donte was open. Luckily the ball went to Donte after Murray blocked Jordan.

    He’s second highest in turn-overs this season. He get’s away with it because of his score stat.

    Maybe Draymond needs to remind him again that he’s not “the guy” yet.

  23. Abject-Target5215

    How is that not a carry before he slips?

  24. That’s a stat category I could lead in if I played

  25. Paid actor by KPJ. Don’t worry. We got a back to back tonight.

  26. gaby_zarny

    in 2 weeks he’ll pass lebron for most turnovers :))))

  27. pineapplesmile99

    Dude just dived onto the floor lmao

    This title is really misleading. I’m not a Poole apologist and am right there with lots of other folks wondering if he will play up to the contract that he was given. That said, the only reason Poole leads the league in turnovers is because he’s played more games than a lot of other players.

    Here’s a list of the top 20 in turnovers per game this season, as of today. Plenty of big name stars on the list.
