Even if Jordan Poole assures that he has learned a lot from this season and that there are positives, we do not want any player to be hit by a teammate at the start of the season, then to end on a very bad note in playoffs. After the attack on Draymond Green, the young full-back made no waves, on the pitch, in the press, and in the columns of The Ringerhe explains that the relationship with Green is purely professional.
“I don’t have an answer for you” he replies about the evolution of his relationship with Green. “Other than that, we were just on the pitch, with our teammates, and we tried to win games. What I remember saying at the start of the season was that we were going to play and try to win a title. We were teammates. It’s just business, frankly. And that’s really all it was, is, and has been. It was just business. It was basketball.”
no question of leaving
Could his failed playoffs, or even a contract extension for Green, push him out?
“I don’t see why I wouldn’t be back. It wasn’t a bad year. I achieve my two best performances in my career in two categories” he recalls. “I was able to make history with Klay and Steph. I achieved my first game-winner. A lot of good things happened this year. It was not a bad season. »
Poole insists he’s part of the Warriors’ hard core, and as Stephen Curry judged last year, ” he is the key of the future of the team. “I am part of the decor, and I have my place in this franchise. I fill the gap. I’m a young guy who was drafted here. We won a title last year and we had another chance to do so. And I don’t see why anyone else would think otherwise. I don’t think anyone thinks that way.”
