The Suns-Warriors game on 2021.11.30.GSW-PHX did not end the way we wanted it to with the Suns pulling away with some pretty nice defense and the Warriors just looking a little discombobulated and Steph Curry could never get untracked. Let's go back to the happy earlier days of the first quarter when Jordan Poole kept the Warriors in it, by dropping in 16 points here.
Co-starring Steph Curry, Draymond Green, Kevon Looney, Andrew Wiggins. Also with JaVale McGee, DeAndre Ayton, Devin Booker, Elfrid Payton, Cameron Payne, and Landry Shamet.

Here’s the old video I mentioned which explains that Iverson cut over the elbows with the fake handoff.
Thanks for doing this. I definitely am less excited to spend time thinking about Warriors basketball after a loss, but it really helps take some of the sting off when there's a nice E1P for... something to do with the game. Good choice to focus on Poole's scoring explosion—it's very therapeutic to see all those shots where the ball went into the basket. ;)
