I remember when you said Poole was better than Maxey though πππ
Poole has a -0.4 VORP this season, a -3.4 BPM, and only 0.4 win shares. .017 WS/48. These numbers are insanely bad rofl.
Also Poole isn't an All-Star. 20 ppg on shit efficiency isn't getting you in the All-Star game. He isn't sniffing that game, not this season.
1. He was definitely better than Maxey in the playoffs & actually contributed to a championship. On much less usage & minutes.
2. He started slow, but in the last 10 games he has stepped up big time in Currys absance averaging 28 ppg.
3. His efficiency is lower this year, he is now a focal point & our team in general is still struggling (although we had a good stretch) & figuring out best line ups.
I have full confidence in his ability to regain his efficiency specially since we have been missing Curry & Wiggins for soooo long.
At the end of the day, he just was an essential piece in a CHAMPIONSHIP, something no 6ers player has been able to say in DECADES.
Peace βπ½
