The Big Lead
Jordan Poole is struggling right now. Poole scored zero points on four shots in a season-low 10 minutes on Monday night as the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Golden State Warriors to take a 3-1 series lead. It was the first time Poole had gone scoreless in 33 postseason games and he hadn't played 10-minutes or less since January 2021.
His very bad night started before the game did as NBC Sports Bay Area caught him looking at his phone and posted video, turning him into a meme before he even put on his uniform.
From there it was all downhill. He was rendered unplayable, while Gary Payton II started and played 23 minutes while he was literally vomiting. Poole's body language was just as bad.
