[Poole] On a Warriors team prone to turnovers, rookie Brandin Podziemski is the first NBA player in 44 years to play more than 130 minutes over a 4gm span and record at least 25 assists w/o a turnover. He’s at 27/0 over 136 minutes.

Mdj you a effin genius 🧠
Dude’s playing with the absolute best mentors he could possibly have ever had. The fake first we sent out in the Poole trade was worth it just for the expertise he’s giving our young guys alone.
44 years
I don’t say this about many rookie players. It’s exceedingly rare. He’s special.
His ceiling might be Chris Paul maybe possibly.
Didn’t CP3 do something similar earlier in the year?
He’s also a strong rebounder for a guard. And while he’s not an elite POA defender and probably never will be, he seems to play smart positional team defense, and his propensity for drawing charges is definitely in the elite category.
Imagine being drafted to a team with the best shooting point guard in the history of the game and a top 3 passing point guard in the history of the game right there to mentor you.
Absolutely perfect situation for him, and somehow he’s actually managing to take it all in.
That’s my ROTY
The anti-Poole. While CP3 has been great coaching up guys and leading the bench it seems all they really needed was a guard like Podz that could push the pace and make plays without turning it over.
Cp3 is proud
Podz not embracing Warriors culture
