That's the good thing by acquiring CP3 and trading it for Poole but we know about how he's too prone to injuries and hopefully that it won't happen a lot. Most specially in those crucial times like if it happens that they're in a playoffs game or semi finals.

Maybe it will come in a blessing that he's there and he'll be treated differently unlike just by a support on his former team. I am looking at some websites that lists these rosters and they haven't updated yet the teams and roster like CP3 is still on Wizards, the same goes for Beal and Poole.

You have a point comparing their age, but I don't really see Poole being as good as Curry or even a champion. This guy isn't clutch; he has the talent, that's given, but he loses his composure under pressure, unlike Green, who really stays composed. That's the reason why the Warriors won multiple championships.

It's a management decision because if they think Poole is worth keeping, then they shouldn't trade him.

However, Poole showed some immaturity during the last playoffs. He didn't act like a player who is paid a max contract, so the team was disappointed.

And to add to this one, Curry has played as a PG in most of his career. When is the time where he played as a Shooting Guard? In his rookie year where he, and Monta Ellis was teammates. Back then, Ellis was their starting PG while Curry is the SG, and obviously it didn't work well.

This is the reason why I don't see CP3 as a starting PG in the Warriors. He has two options. Either accept the role as a bench, and lead the role players for a higher chance of winning a title, or be traded if he doesn't want to be a bench, and choose to be a starter. CP3 has a long list of injuries in his whole NBA career as well, and obviously he is almost non-existent during the playoffs, so even though they are considering him as "Point God" which I agree, I don't want to rely on him especially during the playoffs.

What the Warriors need right now are role players. In the years where they won a title, they are being surrounded by very good role players. Now they need some of them as well. They got GP2, Kuminga, Moody, but they need more especially a big that can sub out with Looney.

Well you have a point in that, but what did Poole contributed with the Warriors? Compare it to what Green has contributed in his whole NBA career. Yes Poole is young, but if I'm the GM, I'd rather keep Green as well because of how he impacts his teammates, and the whole team.

Like you said, Poole can just stay with the Wizards, and be the main player of the team. He didn't experience that in the Warriors since he's always been a bench. Now he can prove himself next season if he can be a reliable guard on a rebuilding team.

There was a news about him but an update, we don't have.

Green enters unrestricted free agency after declining the $27.5 million player option

He has already declined an offer and I think if he'll negotiate with that, he have already done but he's probably going somewhere else and that's what his heart is telling him.

But for sure that the Warriors are open for him to comeback and alter his decision about the decline that he has made.

Well, it's just me and I will never question the proven management of GSW. Poole failed to perform to the expectations, especially during the playoffs but so did Green compared to his previous year's output. There's also Green's decision earlier to end his contract which means that GSW is not even guaranteed to re-sign him. And if Green re-signs it also means a higher salary like a minimum of $30 million per year? I just don't think Green is worth that money anymore. GSW though made the right decision to ditch Poole if he fails to perform in a weak team because he has a huge contract fit for a star player.

We all saw this happen first with the Suns and also the other teams have followed by firing their coaches. What a crazy this past season had made for most teams and we're just done with the drafts.

I wouldn't judge him based on his past performance during the playoffs. It could just have been that he's got out of luck for that particular game and he might redeem himself for the next season.

Poor guy, he's still trying to catch up and process the trade.

Defense and athletic ability.  He is a classic great college player that doesn't translate over to the NBA.  With his size he will get hammered by other players in the NBA.  He took advantage of playing against good 18 years and 19 year Olds.  He doesn't have the athletic ability to compete in the NBA though.  Most of the time it has to do with being able to play defense.

I do believe that Poole was a tradable asset, there is nothing wrong with that, but I am not entirely sure if he was a player they needed to get rid of, that was a bit over the top and I think it should be a bit different in that case. I think if you are handling the situation a bit differently, they could have gotten someone else.

Giving Poole AND picks for CP3 doesn't seem like a good trade, there is a potential to do something much bigger than that. Hopefully they will do better, not entirely sure if they would, but if they end up losing early on, that means that the trade was for nothing and they have lost a player for nothing. Either a title win or at the very worst case a conference finals would make this deal worth it to me.

I like the Golden State Warriors being rid of Jordan Poole, he'll be such a mess to have as the heir to the post splash brothers era and he's shown it multiple times, in my candid opinion. The supposed new deal he got last year is already getting way deep into his head, but the if the Warriors clearing massively off their salary cap is to retain Draymond Green or hand him some ridiculous deal as mentioned above then trading Jordan Poole would be a stupid move in my opinion, I think this players also need to understand that these franchises are peoples business and they as players only stayed over the years because their getting as paid they dim fit and their dreams aligned, but this felling of entitlement after they're getting old and the franchise needs to start thinking of the future they begin to play some victim card, instead of just getting the hell away to some place where to they can milk some money off before calling it quits on their already ending careers.

They showed once again that tanking pays off regardless of size. If they hadn't stopped playing luka and kyrie in the last 2 games last season, they would have faced the champion denver nuggets at best. In the 2023 NBA draft, the top 10 protected picks would go to the high-ranking knicks. Instead, they kept the 10th pick and traded him to the 12th and 24th picks, as well as perhaps the nba's worst contract, turning davis bertans into richaun holmes. Not destiny-changing moves, but they already have destiny-changing players. They need such touches. One of the teams that spent the nba draft 2023 night most successfully. They made unusual and unexpectedly aggressive decisions, and in turn, they contributed significantly to the team having a young core. Dallas has a core group of young players in the form of luka, hardy, green, omax and lively with the two players they took in the draft. Of course, this is a great situation for the team for the future. If Kyrie Irving will stay in the team, I think they have the comfort to make more aggressive decisions thanks to this core they have.
