I do wish he were doing it for someone else. I know we are supposed to embrace the tank, but unlike World B Free, he is not fun to watch.


I've sat and watched the game vs. the Hawks, and I thought he was entertaining, but he not in the way i expected.

Like he didn't chuck, shooting 13 shots. Heck, he's only shot 20+ shots in one game so far. He still tried to pull off some flashy plays, but still did so in a very nonchalant way. Like he didn't care.

If I was a wizards fan, i don't know what I'd think about Poole being a big player on the team.

Who's a good comp for Jordan Poole?

There are baseless rumors swirling around the Wiz trading Jordan Poole.

I have no idea what other team would be dumb enough to do it, and it got me thinking if there was a good comp for the JP situation where a team has a player on a max rookie extension and he ended up barely putting up 15ppg with the green light on dog poop efficiency. MKG?
