In the recent NBA regular season, former Warriors star Poole's Wizards team continued to perform sluggishly, and Poole himself also performed poorly in many games, causing the outside world to question his strength. Poole had a great performance with the Warriors before, but after receiving a high salary to join the Wizards, his performance was uneven, not like a team core. This begs the question of how bad Poole is and whether he can salvage his reputation
1. Poole had a poor performance in this game.
Former Warriors assist king Poole shot 0 of 5 from three-point range against the Magic and only 3 of 12 from the field, with a three-point shooting rate of nearly zero. If you can't even do the usual thing of shooting, it's tantamount to a painter who can't hold the brush steadily. After the whole game, Poole only scored 14 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, as well as 2 turnovers and 5 fouls. This kind of crotch-pulling performance is like a programmer in the IT industry who only writes hello world in the interview algorithm question, and it is estimated that the interviewer will roll his eyes.
Second, Poole made consecutive mistakes in the final quarter.
In the final quarter of the game, the Wizards trailed the score and urgently needed championship member Poole to play the role of stabilizer and chase points for the team. However, at this time, Poole had no touch at all, and missed many shots, causing the Wizards to be unable to close the gap. When the commentators and fans saw this, they all complained fiercely in their hearts, this team still expects this crotch puller to be the leader?At the last moment, the person who should be the most responsible caused his teammates to run around in vain, which is simply a violent thing!Poole's counterattack and rush to the basket were also blocked by opponents, and the defensive end was also beaten, a performance that is a shame in the NBA league. I didn't expect that the veteran who had played for the championship-level team, but after going to the new team, he was slumped, this gap is like a blind date ** and the deity are not at all like the one, it's just a cheating marriage!
3. Commentators and fans criticize Poole.
Seeing Poole's frequent mistakes, the commentator couldn't help but shout for him to go to the CBA, and the former championship members were already not strong enough to stay on the NBA court. Sadly, many Warriors fans even gloated over Poole for the trade, believing that management made a wise move. Players who can go to the championship team to train should have grown in their new club, but they didn't expect Poole not only to play a mess himself, but also to hurt his teammates in vain. This is like an employee in the company who has been trained to transfer out of the department, not only his own performance declines, but also affects the entire team. It's disappointing!
Netizens also talked about it after seeing this game, and some people thought that Poole was just a passable player, and his strength immediately showed after going to a weak team. Some people also think that Poole just has a bad hand for a while, and his strength is still excellent. There are also people who think that Poole's psychological quality is too poor and he can't play once he doesn't have a big brother cover.
Fourth, both the Wizards and Poole have been looking forward to him as the new core.
When the Wizards signed Poole with a high salary, they hoped that he could carry the banner of building the team and become the mainstay of the team's future. However, Poole's arrival has been inconsistent, often sluggish, and far from the expectations of the team's top management. His style of play is like desperately cramming for a college entrance examination, and the incoherence is completely incoherent. The team's management is also reportedly considering trading Poole out, which shows that they are disappointed with him. Professional players who can join the NBA usually have strong professional skills and mental qualities. It's a pity that Poole seems to only have a good kung fu, but he doesn't know when to use it, which is unpredictable.
If Poole wants to rebuild his reputation and win back the trust of fans and the Wizards, he must change this state of ups and downs. Whether he can salvage his already precarious reputation depends on his performance in the next game. If this inconsistent performance continues, I am afraid that the NBA road of the former championship members is coming to an end. Of course, we also expect Poole to burst out at his best and regain his former glory.
