Poole and Looney are good passers now.


Looney never really had the ball enough to do damage before
He was a very solid passer at UCLA

I still can’t figure out how Warriors know who to guard, but what they do works.

Looney is gassed. Might be time to let Kuminga get a little run.

Man, Poole never waits for the screen. He is Jordan Clarkson's clone.

Why pull one move out, when you can pull several out at once and look like a demented meercat, amirite Jordan?

whats frustrating is he's so close to being passable, he just needs to learn the subtleties

Yea i'm sure he'll get there eventually just depends on when

Draymond picking up that dumb foul made Looney play more minutes.

Poole getting stronger would go a long way in improving his defense. He just gets bumped out of the way so easily. That and process what is happening a bit faster so he can rotate better.

Kuminga as the only big, We might be able to get away with that vs the Mavericks. Se Kuminga free. Run. Showtime Warriors featuring Kuminga as James Worthy.
