The Warriors completed their annual trip to Washington with a 4th victory in a row, and for Steve Kerr's players, it was the opportunity to cross paths with Jordan Pooletheir former teammate. The separation was painful, and the former Warriors joker had completely missed his first season as leader of the Wizards.
But Jordan Poole corrected the situation, literally and figuratively, and after his 24 points against the Warriors, he received congratulations from… Draymond Green. “He plays much better” blurted the inside of the Warriors. “Personally I have not experienced this but I have often observed it, when we find ourselves in a new situation, we want to show everything we know how to do. We want to show that we are number 1. I think last season he pushed too much. He wanted it to happen so badly… This year, he is better integrated. »
Best interceptor in the NBA
Proof of Jordan Poole's evolution, he has never made so many passes in his career and he is number 1 in the NBA in interceptions with almost three balls won per game. Proof that he is more involved in the game, against the Warriors, he signed four blocks! Without forgetting this beautiful 45% at 3-points.
“Some of the shots he took last year were bad “, continued Draymond Green. “I don’t think it’s a question of selfishness. I think he wanted so much to prove to people that he could have his own team, that he could come here and be successful, that it ended up backfiring on him. »
After a frank hug with his former understudy, Stephen Curry talked about the progress of Jordan Poole. “It’s always great to see old teammates and good friends again. I encourage him to try to make something of this franchise and seize the opportunity given to him to be a leader. He's playing much better than last year, he feels comfortable. There are no limits for him.”
