Just saw that the pick in 2030 is top 20 protected. Still a pick but not super crazy. I should've waited 10 more minutes https://twitter.com/FunkyDiabetic1
The problem with Poole (coming from a warriors fan) is that if he’s not scoring he’s not contributing. That’s not the case with every other player on the team and especially not the case with cp3
If they traded Poole and that 1st round pick for Porzingus I'd be ok with it. The warriors need size. They don't need an old, small, back up point guard…
I dont like that trade,we need fucking zize a real 7 footer,the warriors have small roster,you kent not win with that roster,the GM start the wrong way💩💩💩💩🤮
Poole basically has the same career trajectory as Kuzma right now. Talented, dumb as hell on the court, but you know that he has it in him if he just grows into a role instead of charging head on by himself. I thought the Dubs would be a lot more patient with him, but I guess the CBA, the ages of their core, and Poole's reputation in the gutter right now made the Warriors give this hill up.
Shame, really. I'm a fan of the baddie-hunter ngl. He has a funny personality on the court and he was the man last year. Hope the Wizards don't give up on him too.
I am not a warriors fan but I don’t see how anyone can put down this trade. As far as Chris Paul holding up he is not going to be depended on for big time minutes. Let’s not talk like he is the starting point guard. As far as the playoffs the reason he would break down by the finals or conference finals was because he was playing starters minutes all year up to the point where he conked out. That will not be an issue here.
bruh first of all, ig this confirms that the warriors were 100% done with poole’s shit. who woulda thought poole’s idiot shot that ended our season would get him kicked off the championship squad?
The upside is that the warriors clear 70 million off the cap next season with Paul and Klay’s contract expiring, and can make one final push for a star to bridge the end of Steph Curry’s prime. Basketball wise, Chris Paul just doesn’t fill the need of the team as much as a functional big
Weird trade. Wizards again gain nothing from each trade aside from finally embracing a rebuild. CP3 is a strange fit on the warriors offence but no doubt he will be solid enough off the bench but is in a fast decline. Poole has always been a average nba player, his best role should be 6th man possibly less. Out of the warriors offence he will struggle even more with all of his terrible decision making and shot selection mixed with inefficient high volume scoring. This ultimately becomes a salary dump for the warriors as after next season CP3s contract is non guaranteed.
Warriors fans are the worst thought wiseman was the next Anthony Davis and kuminga the next lebron and Poole the next curry. Cp3 is washed and trash asf. Gets bullied on d warriors got fleeced
Not that Poole is a guy to build around, but I think Golden State gonna regret making this move. Steph is still amazing of course but Klay is not the same guy he was before the injuries. Dray is still very effective but he’s kind of inconsistent and he could hit that age wall at anytime. CP is washed by his standards. They gonna be relying on Steph too much, one even minor injury could derail their season. They gotta get younger imo.
To give up picks for a injury prone 38 year old who’s on his way out the door for a player who’s on his way up is crazy to me. Cud it help them now yes but it heavily will cost them in the future I think if they wanted to help Steph get better there we’re other ways
Warriors are getting rid of a salary – like it was forced on them – when they are the ones that wrote the contract. Is this one of those GMs building a team for 10 years ago instead of a team for now? They are getting old… but more moves can always be made.

This reeks of Karl Malone to the lakers

Christopher Emmanuel Paul in a Warriors jersey gives me a headache
Warriors vs Wizards in the regular season games is going to be lit 🔥
Mans not hot😂 Steph had enough of the unnecessary bricks
warriors fighting the lakers for oldest team in the playoff run clearly lmao
Now this I didn't expect.
Watch Jordan Poole go 30PPG on the Wizards.
And like 15 wins.
I dont like that trade,we need fucking zize a real 7 footer,the warriors have small roster,you kent not win with that roster,the GM start the wrong way💩💩💩💩🤮
I feel like I’m the only one who sees this as a good move especially for a win now team…IF CP3 can stay on the court 🤷♂️
So draymond does the punching but they punish and trade Poole? Wow..

Wtf
The warriors needed to trade someone they don’t got any cap
I’m looking forward to seeing the Wizards inflate Jordan Poole and Tyus Jones and flip them for even more 1st round picks
CP3 is currently worthless if you seek a deep playoff run.
bruh first of all, ig this confirms that the warriors were 100% done with poole’s shit. who woulda thought poole’s idiot shot that ended our season would get him kicked off the championship squad?
I think the Biggest thing was that draymond would have gone to another Team if Poole would have stayed
Poole is getting $35 mill for the next 4 years and Paul is on an expiring contract

If dray punched Poole he is going to kill Paul 😂
Jordan Poole got away with robbery getting that extension last year! He's a low IQ player that's why you had to add picks to get rid of him
Draymond i leaving. Warriors probably want a facilitator and floor general

they obv gonna flip poole for first rounders
finally someone said it how it is this trade made absolutely no sense to me
CP3 brought more first round picks to the wizards than Beal and KP combined.
i would be glad to this trad jordan poole is useless at defense

You don’t just trade for the player. You also trade for the contract.
Not that Poole is a guy to build around, but I think Golden State gonna regret making this move. Steph is still amazing of course but Klay is not the same guy he was before the injuries. Dray is still very effective but he’s kind of inconsistent and he could hit that age wall at anytime. CP is washed by his standards.

both teams trading problems 🤣
Very shocking trade, I still can’t wrap my head around this still

Poole played quite well when Curry was out. But him and Kuzma…that is a lot of mistakes.
CP3 will play a vet role off the bench in important minutes;
Good role for him.
2030 don’t be even sound real
