Poole's averages went up after the move to PG. From that point on he averaged 20ppg, 5.8 assists and 4 rebounds on 43-35-95 shooting splits.
It got higher the longer he was in the position and he averaged 23ppg, 8 assists and 4 rebounds on 43-34-96 shooting splits.
I believe he'll average closer to 23-25 ppg, 6 assists and 4 rebounds on 45-35-95 splits.
To your point BK will require him to take better shots which improved his efficiency once he moved to PG last season, so there is no reason to believe that won't continue. Plus they'll make him play defense.
Kuz will do better to because BK requires it.
Mixing the young guys with the vets will be great. I think we'll see a lot of different combinations which will be exciting to watch!
I am putting zero stock into any of that. Feels like when Deandre Ayton had those crazy numbers post-ASB yet is already on the trade block again despite his age matching up with the Blazers' timeline.
@@psychobluesfxtYou probably don't follow the Warriors but Poole put up 20ppg and 5 assists off the bench in Golden State his last year there.
He also averaged 26ppg and 5 assists when he filled in for Steph when he missed almost 30 games Poole's last season with the Warriors.
He was the 3rd leading scorer in Golden State behind Steph and Klay his last 2 years on the team so the numbers I listed are not out of reach.
Why do you think so many people thought Poole would come to Washington and his scoring would jump. The thought was that he would have more opportunity to shoot in Washington versus playing behind Steph and Klay.
He struggled because they played him off ball so it was tough for him to get into a rhythm. Once they allowed him to play on ball after the All-star break that's what opened up his game and WE who know how he can play saw his game go back to what it was at Golden State.
@@peaceful344 I did follow the Warriors, but he also had a significantly better team around him that optimized him, while right now he's in a situation where his shortcomings are being emphasized instead. His career is not a good trajectory at the moment and while I understand his value is extremely low, I'd appreciate if the expectations around him were more realistic when it comes to rebuilding this team. There's a lot more to rebuilding than simply losing a lot to get the best ping pong ball, especially for a franchise that over the past few years has drafted poorly.
Corey Kispert is the type of player you want if your a contender but if he can get us a good frp they might trade him. You either keep him till we are good or trade him at a safe value it could go either way.
U might get a late first rd pick for him, which usually means they r a scrub,
Bold Prediction - JP makes an NBA all team
Kuz needs to be gone... I like him but he's a volume shooter and it's gonna hurt the team
Corey Kispert is a keeper! Trade Bagley to OKC. Sign Saar from OKC and watch the Saar brothers grow with no pressure.
Agreed. I'm a huge Corey Kispert fan.
The wizards will be worse than last year and Kyle Kuzma and Jordan Poole numbers will be worse. This team currently structured is definitely a worst team than last year. Don't expect any improvement in any aspect of the game..
This roster is much better than last seasons.
We need to have a top three pick in next years draft
Worse than 15 wins, no way jose,
jordan poole gonna be allstar
