Stephen Curry

Poole didn't need to redeem himself, but he did by delivering the game-winner.

With a shortened shot clock, by letting Memphis reset its defense the Warriors would've been making life harder on themselves to create the same look that Poole had right in front of him. But was it the best decision? But the Warriors, with just a one-bucket lead and still time for at least two more Grizzlies possessions, needed to score on this trip more than they needed to milk a few more seconds. So even if Golden State had milked the shot clock down to the last second, which likely would've resulted in a far worse shot than the one Poole took, Memphis still would've gotten the ball back with over a minute to play. Before the shot, you can see that Curry was clapping for Poole to give him the ball. After attempting a somewhat ill-advised 3-pointer that irked [Stephen Curry](/nba/players/1685204/stephen-curry/) to the point the Warriors star hurled his mouthpiece into the stands, which led to his being ejected, Poole redeemed himself by producing the game-winning layup off a baseline out-of-bounds play as Golden State escaped with a 122-120 victory.

Given the totality of the Kyrie Irving experience, as well as what other players have accomplished, there were better options for the starting five. Luka seemed like a lock for one of the starting positions. In the current setup though, Embiid seems to have a stronger case to start than Giannis. Morant and SGA will have their chances to rack up starting spots over the course of their careers. In the East, Embiid has to be wondering why he’s been left out of the starting five.

He's clearly mad at his own teammate's horrific shot selection in a key moment during the game and his frustration boiled over. Up by two with one minute and 14 seconds remaining, the Warriors had the ball with a chance to run some precious time off the clock, only for Jordan Poole to take a terrible shot from beyond the three-point line that sent Curry into a fit of rage. Curry broke down the whole situation afterward, clarifying the mouthguard never went into the stands. The guy chews on that thing and dangles it around his mouth like a man with slicked-back hair and a leather jacket does with a toothpick.
