Jordan Poole will start tonight against the Nets.
“He seems to play better in the starting lineup … He has more space when he’s playing with Steph, usually has a lesser defender on him. He makes people better because if space and shots he can create. It’s a good fit.” – 6:53 PM

The Ty Jerome, Jordan Poole, Donte DiVincenzo, Jonathan Kuminga, Kevon Looeny starting five was a plus-13
They played 12:50 together and outscored the Cavs 41-28. The five-man group went 5-for-10 on 2s together and 9-for-12 on 3s – 10:09 PM

Warriors beat the Cavs 120-114 in Cleveland down four starters. First road win over an opponent with a .500 record or better this season.
Golden State had six players in double figures, led by Jordan Poole’s 32. Made 23 triples.

Draymond set up that open 3. Stopping at the FT alone — FUNDAMENTALS! — and faked 3 looks to make the defense move. First the back door to Steph, then the curl from Poole. Wiggins was left wide open – 9:00 PM

No finesse for Poole at the rim tonight. All thunder. Can’t play around against Boston’s shot-blockers. – 8:47 PM

Poole and Draymond the only Warriors who HAVE NOT taken at least half of their shots from 3. Draymond has only taken 3. Poole is the only one working to get good shots inside the arc – 8:14 PM

Monster chase down block by Horford but Celtics can’t capitalize. Poole comes back down and bricks a transition 3 and Mazzulla calls timeout immediately. Both teams looking gassed right now. – 7:41 PM

The last time we all were here in Boston for Celtics-Warriors, Golden State closed out the 2022 NBA Finals.
An interesting wrinkle for tonight’s rematch: Jordan Poole starting in place of Kevon Looney, presumably to have either Looney or Draymond Green playing at all times. – 7:33 PM

More on this storyline
Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr was irate with Jordan Poole after Poole got called for a delay of game — the team’s second — with seven seconds to go in the third quarter of their eventual 120-114 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday night. “Jordan!” Kerr yelled. “Come on, lock in … lock the f— in; we’re trying to win this game.” Just 24 hours removed from a gut-wrenching loss in Boston, the Warriors needed this win. Cleveland was closing in, and Golden State, after once leading by as much as 20, needed to do what it didn’t do against the Celtics: close the door. -via ESPN / January 21, 2023
Dalton Johnson: Steve Kerr on getting on Jordan Poole for his technical foul: “I snapped in that moment and he looked at me like I was nuts. … I love Jordan and I love the way he’s playing. He was incredible tonight.” -via Twitter @DaltonJ_Johnson / January 21, 2023
Anthony Slater: Surprise move from Steve Kerr tonight in Boston. He is starting small against the Celtics. Jordan Poole in place of Kevon Looney. Steph Curry Jordan Poole Klay Thompson Andrew Wiggins Draymond Green -via Twitter @anthonyVslater / January 19, 2023
