Chris Paul to the Warriors Is Not What You Think 

We are streaming the Draft tonight!! Come join us on the Discord! 👉 shorturl.at/abeS9

The fact that the Warriors were able to dump Poole and actually get something back for him is a monumental achievement.

Chris Paul is the guide for the bench and young players.

What a year for Poole, from knocked out to traded.

I don't think Dubs can afford to start Paul next to Steph. Most likely starting 5 will have Looney and Dray for size with Wiggs and Klay on the wings and Steph at point. Maybe Paul replaces Wiggs or Klay but I doubt it. CP3 makes much more sense off the bench. This will prolong his season so he can be healthy for the playoffs and/or will serve as a good way of bumpig up his potential trade value by showcasing what he can contribute.

Aye at least Poole won’t have to be worrying about Dray tryna punch him😭😭

CP3 such a boss. Got two players traded just so he could get their number. First, Beal. Then, Poole. Who's next?

The warriors should get Dwight Howard to sign for a year on a veteran contract, and they need a big

Yes this is exactly what I was thinking. I support you claims AM. Will watch you content more in the future.

I love your energy and analysis, you might be becoming my fave basketball channel

What an insane time in the NBA, man.

Ryan Hollins in 2023 is crazy

I'd love to see you do a reaction / future prediction for the top 3/5 picks. Charlotte and Portland are going to have active and interesting free agency pursuits !!

If the Warriors can re-sign Draymond and add any type of backup center, they will be a title contender next year. Their starting 5 was the best in the league last year (by far), and now this will be their bench: CP3, Moody, Divincenzo, Kuminga and (? at Center). Moody and Kuminga playing alongside CP3 (instead of Poole) will help a lot. Having said that... I can also see this as a plan to trade CP3 for a couple quality role players before the deadline. Either way... getting him for Poole was a great deal for the Warriors.

I love this trade. Chris Paul is loved by everyone and to bring him on with superstars can make the warriors even better. I hope they don’t trade him, because he deserves a ring so bad.

I was hoping the dubs could get a big man for poole..but yeah cp3 makes sense..makes them better.. mainly its a salary dump..cp can also help solve their bench issues..hopefully unlock jk, moody, and baldwin 🙏

Smart move by the Warriors. They are attempting to replicate their 2022 championship roster with the same starters with a very great 2nd unit. If they can pull off a "D-Lo for Wiggins" trade with CP3, then they should pursue an offensive 6th man replacement for Jordan Poole and effective veterans like Bjelica & Porter who excel on both sides of the court. But still, a 2nd unit with CP3, Donte/GP2, Moody, and Kuminga doesn't sound bad.

The DLo trade is a great analogy. To many “experts” are focused on fit when the GSW are all about acquiring assets. When you have assets, you have options. That’s how the Beal trade should be analyzed as well.

It was Poole or Dray. Unfortunately had to happen at some point especially after the punch, and on paper CP sounds nice but he’s 38 and injury prone.

Chris Paul in a bench leadership role is great. Funny this was 1 of the 3 teams I thought would be great for him.

Paul off the bench could go kinda crazy. He just needs to run the second unit and play pick and roll with kuminga and whoever. He’s a smart guy and this is his best shot at a chip

Damn your the best hoops channel. I thought the same about cp3 leading the 2nd unit but the trade for 2 vets would be great. I thought tossing in Rollins and a 1st was terrible but the open roster spot along with igoudala is a great point. This is why I wait for your view on things before I get too mad or glad

First person I've heard express my thoughts on the CP trade, sub.

I think CP will stay with GSW but be the man to run their second unit. Probably plenty of rest days and no need to come back too quick if he does get injured since GSW has not given a crap about the regular season since they won 73 and blew it. CP's minutes will probably go from 32/game last season to probably about 20-25 this season and if he does happen to get injured you have another coach/player sitting on the bench like Iggy the past couple of seasons. Washington is getting a talented (if a bit flawed) young player so win win trade on paper (if Draymond resigns). It will be a blast watching Paul with Curry, Klay, and Wiggins on the floor.

Jordan Poole is going to be really good in Washington. He's going to have the rock in his hands and a lot of the offence resting on his shoulders. That's where he thrives. Ideally this will up his trade value and the Wiz can get something good for him.

Lionel Hollins was a big part of the Blazers '77 championship. great to see him make a comeback!

chris paul will be fun to watch in the warriors offense

Was waiting for this one

love your videos

Poole's attitude did not fit the Warriors overall, probably why he got punched in the first place... Warriors rely on their chemistry, and Poole was fucking that up, so I think it's smart to get rid of Poole and his contract, bring in CP3 for a while and maybe let go of even more to gain a real piece to win and build around. Good move from the Warriors and Wizards. Have a feeling Poole is going to get a bad rep in the league for having too much of a chip on his shoulder. Unless he can win a ring without superstars like Steph and Klay, his attitude is gonna cause disruption on any team he's on. Just my opinion.

I really feel good with this trade though what they really need is a big man role player which they could really get in the free agency. Watch out dynasty is not over!! Lets go dubs!!!

Chris to be the new iggy runs the second unit and sometimes plays important minutes with the starters

this guy makes these fast bro

gotta love Draymont he has old school mentality! he will bring wining chemistry wherever he goes

Not a Warriors fan but I hope CP3 will finally win a ring

A lot of good points in this vid! Especially the fact that the Warriors aren’t washed.

Very Good Takes. The Rollins Trade include, well said. !

Poole isn’t a playoff player more of regular season. The trade for the Wizards and for JP is W since Wizards won’t be a playoff team for a while

2:41 incorrect divencenzo will not be returning this year

He’d be a great Rondo type 6th man. That IQ and floor generalship could be great.

CP3 is under 6 feet tall and damn near 40. He'd sweep the floors for 30 million dollars. He'll definitely be coming off the bench and will get a good number of starts, and minutes because somebody is always injured in the NBA.

Pooles 87 footer with 43 minutes left on the shot clock sealed his fate...

For this scenario Paul will help the young guys develop their potential untill playoff time just like he was on OKC he help SGA and other young players experience the playoffs even they lost they still learn well fighting Houston 😇Good Luck at the Bay Paul hope you will get a ring 🥺you deserved it 🤝

That shot at Kd was amazing 😂

I can't help but to wonder if the Wizards might eventually flip Poole at the deadline for multiple 1st round picks. While Poole isn't worth that much right now, with so few options remaining on a horrible Wizards team, I could see him averaging over 25 PPG and some team (say the Heat) decides they want to add that big piece and overpay for him. That would be great for us as it's an awful time to be a Wizards fan. Hoping this new front office can draft well, because if they don't then we're completely screwed!

No problem for cp3 he'll get plenty minutes and not have To injure himself hes good til the playoffs and they can make a new death lineup

where did u get the ryan rollins stuff from, like I dont see that anywhere

I’m a warriors fan and never turned on the Poole Party btw keep the music made the vid more better

Warriors need a solid big and they're back in contention

The way you said “here is generational wealth” 😅

Masterful as usual

I don’t know all of the minute details but I’m excited for the new CBA. The current luxury tax only applying, in practice, to smaller-market teams is horrible for the sport

I would agree with your whole doing the whole D-lo for Wiggins thing but with CP3 if this was 2k

This is good for Poole, he’ll get to start for the wizards which is what he wanted

So so so excited so hyped let’s gooooo

I love the unexpected trades of the nba ✌️♥️🏀🔥🔥🔥🔥.

I think you should do a video on the Suns situation and the fact their alleged shadow GM is Isiah freaking Thomas. As a Knick fan, the fact that that's the case is massively concerning for the Suns' hopes this year, their culture, and their future.

4:04 you did not have to do KD like that😂

Bienvenido a WARRIORS 🤩

I think the organization realizes the core itself is not getting any younger and curry could be prone to injuries this year or next so cp3 could be the new microwave sixth man. He can start to give Steph some rest and lead the bench. We can play fast and we can play methodical as well. Also, it will free up some money space to acquire a vet big man. If Draymond leaves, that hurts but that can move looney to power forward and that can give us size and height with another price find center. So I'm beginning to see the wisdom of the trade.

They should now try to purse a good veteran backup center and good veterans overall to help with depth There’s tons of good veteran free agents

i don't think trying to raise CP's value and then flipping for good assets makes sense because jordan poole would have had the same return, possibly more because he's a young player that's developing well and is valued around the league. although he didn't have a good season, he'll bounce back on a new team away from draymond (although that doesn't change his attitude he got after getting the bag) and can develop without the pressure to win on a rebuilding team.

This move puts the Warriors at the top and my preseason pick for winning the chip. Paul is underrated. You simply cannot ever have enough shooters, ball handlers, and leadership. You can never say oh we have to many leaders. Warriors understand this, and will be rolling. They could maybe pick up 1 center and they good. Maybe try and get a Steven Adams, valencunous, or nurkic and the got it.

Lmaoo that KD roast

Poole got the bag before the punch

ok... "plan for get back to losing" bit really cracked me up

As a Suns fan play him off the bench. You have Draymond IQ already now they have CP3 IQ off the bench and his playmaking ability. You guys got a very smart veteran who can also score. Use it.

They need to trade for a big that protects the rim then you can have Chris Paul come off the bench but can finish games cp3, curry, klay, dray, and actually center could be deadly

Pressed that noti ASAP

The jab at KD and his time in Brooklyn made me laugh so hard

Just happy that there won't be minimum contract CP3 for the Lakers Current system is already skewed towards big market teams as it is, especially in buyout market

They got Chris Paul because they know the Lakers want him and they might just trade Paul for Ad because rumor is that Lebron doesn't want to play with Ad anymore.

Warriors need a big who can space the floor, rebound and provide paint presence/protection. Cp is not the answer. I thought it was a good move if they went for prozingis but celts got him already. So maybe myles turner.

I expected CP3 to become a bench player on a team with good defensive bigs like Memphis, Golden State, Milwaukee or Cleveland

Broo. That KD rant was gold 🥇

Maybe he can finally get that elusive ring But like he’s just going to be a second string point guard off their bench .. I mean just for one season But of course the Draymond green Poole situation still was Rocky

Upping his value and trading him mid season for bench help would be the best move for the Warriors frfr.

Maybe he can finally get a ring😢

Don't think CP3 will ever play for GSW. He is a trade piece and super smart way to dispose of Poole..good move!

Its not unusual for cp3 to come off the bench since he already said in an interview that he's good at any role as long as he plays on a winning team. He's mindset is to capture his first ring even without playing as the best player second or third or even the sixth man. He just want that damn ring and I so hope warriors will be the one to grant that dream.

Now they really need a big man cause cp is so deadly on a pick n roll situation, and imagine if wiseman still a warrior cp could mentor him.

Jordan "JR Smith" Poole 😂😂😂

As a Warriors fan, the only thing I’m worried about, is that our offense is constantly moving and being fast, the complete opposite of Chris Pauls style of play. I truly wonder how it will work with him on the bench.

This is a lesson to every team lol. Do not dump 120m on a player who is good in one season. Heard reports he trashtalking dray, klay and steph behind the back. Dude should have balls up. He is getting paid 30m a year and he got punch once and wasnt able to mentally return.

They lacked playmaking when Steph & Dray were off the court last year in the playoffs. They now have someone that can carry the offense when those guys are on the bench. The warriors clearly are making moves to bolster their IQ and get back that chemistry that was lost because of the Poole / dray incident.

Hey man, for some reason your video doesnt show up between my channels...

lol nice KD roast 😂

They Kyle Kuzma’d Jordan poole 😂😂 remember when kuzma thought he was the safest young player after they traded Zo and kept him 🤭🤭 until they sent him to Washington also 😂😂 but at least Kyle still was hoopin pretty well for them.

Chris Paul is a better version of a Shaun livingston.his high iq and experience will make the bench better when steph is resting.its a great move

Or tbh if draymond played point and you had Chris and Curry as guards to increase depth for them it’s potential but draymond has to develop to iso play and more passing but his assist are underrated…

You know you can just start cp3 and sub him out in the first timeout, then he can lead the bench unit. He becomes a starter by name, but is effectively a 6th man.

Warriors vs Wizards gonna be a brawl fight

how are you so fast?!

cp3 only usuable in regular season, then it's choking or injuries so probably a good move to trade him just before playoffs

Chris Paul coming off the bench as a 6th man is perfect

I hope cp3 wins a championship some time soon he deserves it kind of disappointing that he couldn’t win a championship in phoenix he deserves one more than ever.

Now it’s time to unload green for a good big man and picks.

What if CP3 plays point, Steph and Klay play 2 and 3 and Looney and Kuminga play 4 and 5. Like a 3 man pick and roll along with the Splash Brothers... Dray can sub in for CP as backup.

lmao every time it be “people don’t understand ___”

There’s nothing my guy won’t do for the elusive chip
