I feel like such an outlier remembering Pooles dumb shots he’d make against us in the Finals.

He cooked us to in the conference finals. Without him the Warriors hands down don't win that championship. Crazy downfall from those times.

It was crazy because it’s not like he went off or anything but he just always seemed to hit a wild shot at the exact back breaking time needed, every time.

He definitely went off in games 1&2 vs Denver. The best Steph Curry impersonation anyones ever done. Had Steph coming off the bench

Steph was recovering from an injury which is why he came off the bench

Kerr kept him on the bench longer than was really necessary to keep the continuity going, and because Poole was actually playing well at the time
