[Highlight] Jordan Poole inexplicably walking the dog and burning clock while down 10 to the Milwaukee Bucks

[u/paddiction]

This guy's not a tank commander. He's a tank general.

[u/SmilesUndSunshine → u/paddiction]

Supreme Commander for the Allied Tanking Powers

[u/LogansGambit → u/paddiction]

Supreme Tank Chancellor Poole

[u/Cul_what]

Take notes folks this is how you command the tank

[u/CummingInTheNile → u/Cul_what]

this is also how you piss off your teammates

[u/NegativesPositives → u/CummingInTheNile]

Deni Avdija is similar to Draymond in that he’s a defense first PF.

By the end of the season that might not be the only similarity they have.

[u/thatonezorofan → u/NegativesPositives]

Lol, Avdija's body language makes it so clear he's tired of Poole's shit. I would be too if I thought a player that was barely better or not even better than me was shooting 25 shots a game

[u/trimble197 → u/thatonezorofan]

And he’s getting paid a shit ton of money

[u/yala-sheket → u/thatonezorofan]

Its not only that tho. The guy does nothing to deserve it.

He took 26 shots with 1 ast 1 reb and cone defense.

Deni has to guard the best/second best guy every night working his ass off just to jog to the other side of the court to watch poole brick with 20 sec on the shot clock lol

His shots should go to bilal/deni/kispert,wiz should trade him by the deadline if they are smart.

[u/YouHaveToEffingEat → u/yala-sheket]

wdym, they aiming for picks

[u/aahdin → u/YouHaveToEffingEat]

Tanking teams want to develop players who can win a championship later on, the goal isn't just to be as terrible as possible or they'd have my chubby ass play PG.

[u/co0kiez → u/thatonezorofan]

Bro, Avdija has 0 rings. Poole is clearly better.

lmfao

[u/ArmchairHandjob → u/CummingInTheNile]

Tremendous efficiency

[u/Sharp_Aide3216 → u/Cul_what]

If you're gonna suck, at least be entertaining.

[u/TJ_McConnell_MVP → u/Sharp_Aide3216]

The wizards are highly entertaining with Poole’s nightly antics alone.

[u/facedownbootyuphold → u/TJ_McConnell_MVP]

I hope someone is collecting his lowlights this season, gonna be an epic reel next spring

[u/EyeChihuahua → u/facedownbootyuphold]

I was rooting for him when he left the warriors but it’s all become so clear what the problem was, getting harder to root for him every day what the hell is he doing

[u/swollencornholio → u/EyeChihuahua]

He seemed like the real deal when he played out of his mind against the Nuggets in the first round 21-22. How far he has fallen...

[u/ehhhwutsupdoc → u/swollencornholio]

People really latched onto his 21-22 performance. He had a single season where he was good. The rest of his career, he's sucked ass. He could be better if he played with more discipline but it was evident last season he was looking forward to making highlight plays than winning games.

[u/trimble197 → u/ehhhwutsupdoc]

It was annoying how people kept bringing up that season. The biggest red flag was that GS saw Poole as a bigger headache than Green.

[u/datruerex → u/TJ_McConnell_MVP]

Dude gunning for that Shaqtin MVP

[u/Innsmouth_Swim_Team → u/Sharp_Aide3216]

Little-known fact: most NBA teams have a Papa John's coupon deal where people in its market get their order half-price the day after the team wins a game. In DC, the deal instead is if the Wizards score 115 points. Because if they waited for them to actually win a game, they'd never sell a pizza.

[u/michaelvsaucetookdmt → u/Innsmouth_Swim_Team]

Pacers fans get bogo penn station

[u/Jason3671 → u/Cul_what]

It’s his team, he got this

[u/dxiao → u/Cul_what]

full command

[u/humanist72781 → u/Cul_what]

Even tank commander Byron Scott taking notes

[u/ruggnuget]

Hes like a kid that does things because he saw it on tik tok but doesnt understand the context.

[u/CummingInTheNile → u/ruggnuget]

dude was too focused on the highlight reel move he was gonna pull out that he forgot about the clock

[u/cuteguy1 → u/CummingInTheNile]

nah i'm pretty sure he thought the gameclock stopped and not just the shotclock - hence the reaction when he picked the ball up - so his heart was in the right place.

[u/SnooOpinions3062 → u/cuteguy1]

Not knowing the rules to a game you get paid millions for is the definition of your heart not in the right place

[u/6-plus26 → u/SnooOpinions3062]

Lmao seeing it done correctly a millions times but not having the fortitude to question how or why it works when it’s your job is unreal. Then add his salary in the mix lol these guys lowkey overpaid

[u/LookOutItsLiuBei → u/[deleted]]

There is a moment here when the Psychlos' entire planet (home office and all) is blown to smithereens, without the slightest impact on any member of the audience (or, for that matter, the cast). If the film had been destroyed in a similar cataclysm, there might have been a standing ovation.

God I miss Ebert so much

[u/McNultysHangover → u/[deleted]]

No flippin way lol

[u/Plusstwoo → u/cuteguy1]

That’s definitely Shaqtin

[u/SandyMandy17 → u/ruggnuget]

He won a championship with the warriors not knowing how the game clock works

[u/t0ny510 → u/[deleted]]

He's got his bag and his ring, dude is just going full meme now

[u/Cod_rules → u/t0ny510]

Kinda respect the lack of hustle, ya know. The man got what so many people dream of, while not giving a flying fuck.

[u/New-Bowler-8915 → u/Cod_rules]

Wizards media was comparing him to MJ because he put up 35 or something in a preseason. MJ would have this kid murdered if he still owned the team

[u/seanconnery69696 → u/[deleted]]

Jr smith threw soup so jordan poole could get punched in the face

[u/Vordeo → u/SandyMandy17]

The Warriors giving him that extension like a season in advance of when they had to remains completely inexplicable.

[u/PennyStockHardaway → u/ruggnuget]

I did this in rec league after I first saw someone jump out of bounds to save a ball. I did it, the only problem was that if I just let it go out it would have been our ball but I threw it right to their team. Felt dumb as hell.

[u/JonBonButtsniff → u/PennyStockHardaway]

The first time I heard a football team “defer” after winning the coin toss was in Pop Warner. My less-assertive co-captains looked at me, unsure what to do next. I declared we’d kick with the wind, ensuring the other team would get the ball both halves.

My coaches just sighed.

[u/BonerHonkfart → u/JonBonButtsniff]

Are you Marty Mornhinwheg?

[u/AashyLarry]

His reaction when he realizes the clock is running kills me

[u/kpeds45 → u/AashyLarry]

I think he thought doing this stops the game clock as well as the shot clock 😂😂😂.

[u/rookie-mistake → u/kpeds45]

fuck lmao you're probably right

[u/kpeds45 → u/rookie-mistake]

I imagine him yelling at the ref "hey, the clock shouldn't be running!!!!" And I'm going to piss myself laughing at how dumb it all is 😂😂

[u/FearfulInoculum → u/kpeds45]

Watch the replay he did yell at the ref.

[u/kpeds45 → u/FearfulInoculum]

Lol, I know, I mean that's what I imagine he's yelling at the ref

[u/LordHussyPants → u/kpeds45]

imagine if he got a tech lmao

[u/doesntCompete → u/kpeds45]

"Play basketball you fucken idiot" - The ref

[u/nycisdope → u/rookie-mistake]

Not probably. Exactly that

[u/External-Extension59 → u/rookie-mistake]

There's no probably, the clock stops after a made basket in the last 2 minutes so he probably just thought it was in the last two minutes

[u/maethlin → u/rookie-mistake]

negative basketball IQ

[u/davismcgravis → u/kpeds45]

But sometimes the game clock doesn’t start, like at the end of games?? Something like that right?

[u/ballgkco → u/davismcgravis]

last 2 minutes

[u/arashout → u/ballgkco]

I mean to be fair, that is a little confusing. Like having different rules for the last 2 minutes.

But he's an NBA pro he should know better

[u/ballgkco → u/arashout]

if some dumb shit redditor ( me :) ) knows the rules the dude being paid millions and millions yearly probably should ye i agree.

[u/KKamm_ → u/ballgkco]

I watch a shit ton of basketball and still had no idea it was only final 2 mins lol. And I’m normally good about that stuff

[u/koticgood → u/arashout]

Rules like that is important to keep the game going but also maximize the intensity of the deciding moments of the game.

It's like in the NFL, a lot of casual fans don't realize the clock doesn't stop (outside of the second or two it takes for the ref to spot the ball) when you go out of bounds. That only happens in the last 2 minutes of the 1st half and last 5 minutes of the 2nd half. Introduced in 1990 to speed the game up.

[u/whenitcomesup → u/ballgkco]

I'm guessing I don't notice this often since teams play full court D to force the other team to pick up

[u/DumbDumb6 → u/ballgkco]

I legit didn’t know that at all and I’ve been watching the nba for nearly 20 years

[u/jveezy → u/DumbDumb6]

Took me a similar length of time before I learned this too. I never paid close attention to the clock outside of the last two minutes and most teams inbound the ball pretty quickly anyways, so there's only a small window of time to notice after each made basket even if someone's paying attention.

[u/Plastic_Blood1782 → u/davismcgravis]

Yea last 2 minutes

[u/Carl_Wyman → u/kpeds45]

It keeps the clock from running if it’s already stopped

[u/VashiTen → u/kpeds45]

Yep I was about to defend him by admitting I had no idea this rule only applied to the game clock in the last 2 minutes either... but then I remembered I'm not being paid millions of dollars to play in the NBA.

[u/Daltonwilcoxx → u/kpeds45]

100% that’s what he thought, you can tell how he freaks out right when he sees the clock going down lol.

[u/EaglesPvM → u/AashyLarry]

He threw up his hand like “why is the clock running” lol

[u/Based_and_JPooled → u/EaglesPvM]

like McNabb not knowing a game can end in a tie

[u/elevatednova → u/Based_and_JPooled]

Please don’t open old wounds, lol

[u/quartzguy → u/EaglesPvM]

Like if Chris Paul started pointing at the basket and screaming except the ball is in his other hand and not with DeAndre Jordan.

[u/deliciouspuppy → u/EaglesPvM]

LOL he looked at the ref and pointed to the game clock, and was yelling at the ref that someone messed up cuz the game clock was running! that's grade A clowning right there.

[u/DentonDiggler → u/AashyLarry]

Omg I thought he was telling his teamates to do something, but I think you're right.

[u/AnyHowMeow → u/DentonDiggler]

This shit is like an SNL skit or something.

[u/Sh405 → u/DentonDiggler]

Yeah same here but you see him look over at the ref initially so probably was complaining about the clock. What a dummy 😂

[u/deevotionpotion → u/DentonDiggler]

Holy shit. Me too, I thought he was trying to trick his defender into looking away

[u/SkateboardCZ → u/DentonDiggler]

I thought that was rules haha did it change or something ?

[u/DentonDiggler → u/SkateboardCZ]

Just last 2 minutes in QT2 and QT4. If you are up, this is a good strategy because the game clock is running, but the shot clock doesn't start until someone touches it.

[u/SkateboardCZ → u/DentonDiggler]

Thank you

[u/Bikouchu → u/SkateboardCZ]

I kept thinking it stops. I know Chris Paul used to do it all the time.

[u/AccountSave → u/AashyLarry]

LMAO I'm dead he legit started talking to the ref

[u/kindtdp1 → u/AashyLarry]

I’m honestly at loss for words.

[u/[deleted]]

He doesn't understand the clock rules lmao

[u/Scoot2028MVP → u/[deleted]]

This is right up there with McNabb not knowing NFL games could end in a tie.

[u/HolyGig → u/Scoot2028MVP]

Nah this is a million times worse. Running the clock like this happens in almost every single game, how he doesn't know the clock rules as an NBA player is baffling to me

[u/Round_Bullfrog_8218 → u/HolyGig]

Yeah Ties have also gotten a lot more common since McNabb said that in the NFL, plus there aren't ties in lower levels.

[u/JugdishSteinfeld → u/Round_Bullfrog_8218]

So, McNabb is the Roger Bannister of ties in football, and Poole is the Roger Bannister of dumbfuckery in basketball.

[u/Spacemanspirit → u/HolyGig]

The clock stops when you do it inside of 2 minutes, he must’ve seen that and figured it was the last 5 minutes of something

[u/StuccoStucco69420 → u/HolyGig]

Idk, I think not knowing rules around assigning a winner is bigger than clock minutia.

I wasn’t sure if the clock was going to stop at the 4:00 mark but I guess it’s the 2:00 mark. I’m a decent fan, I come on here, listen to podcasts, watch games etc.

If you asked a random casual fan they probably wouldn’t not know if the clock runs after FGs. But I think most would know games can be tied.

[u/[deleted] → u/Scoot2028MVP]

He should have heeded "better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt."

[u/poneil → u/[deleted]]

First said by the late great Kyrie Irving

[u/dubler2020 → u/poneil]

RIP.

[u/ThingsAreAfoot → u/Scoot2028MVP]

People mock McNabb way too much for that one. Ties were exceedingly rare in that time.

[u/Vegetable-Tooth8463 → u/Scoot2028MVP]

u/Scoot2028MVP explain the ref to non-NFL fans?

[u/lukewwilson → u/[deleted]]

I thought it looked like at the end he thought the game clock shouldn't be running

[u/rjcarr → u/lukewwilson]

Right, he doesn't know the rules. The clock only stops on buckets with fewer than 2 minutes left. Otherwise it's a running clock on made baskets.

[u/CHRIRSTIANGREY]

this guy's actually stupid it's insane

[u/honestnbafan → u/CHRIRSTIANGREY]

He wears his IQ on his jersey

[u/CummingInTheNile → u/honestnbafan]

that numbers too high

[u/colossuskiddx → u/honestnbafan]

Draymond punched whatever was left

[u/Gr8CanadianSpeedo → u/colossuskiddx]

CTE for life

[u/thatkellenguy → u/CHRIRSTIANGREY]

Bro is compiling the most fire Shaqtin a fool mixtape of all time.

[u/Schveen15 → u/thatkellenguy]

Shaqtin-a-Poole

[u/bayarea_fanboy → u/Schveen15]

TNT this one right here use this

[u/Zouthpaw → u/thatkellenguy]

Even Javale would be ashamed lol

[u/Waffleshuriken → u/CHRIRSTIANGREY]

He might be my favorite player purely from an entertainment standpoint lmfao

[u/LordCousins → u/Waffleshuriken]

I love that he’s in the nba

On the wizards

[u/Fast_Stick_1593 → u/LordCousins]

Tank commander 🫡

[u/StaffSgtDignam → u/LordCousins]

Shit is depressing man, this isn't even a great draft-I wish things would go our way for once :(

[u/OptimusGrime707 → u/CHRIRSTIANGREY]

chris broussard nods sullenly

[u/LakerGiraffe → u/CHRIRSTIANGREY]

And yet he somehow was a major piece during a title run. Insane shit haha.

[u/Redpin → u/LakerGiraffe]

Curry turning Poole and Wiggins into major contributors are big legacy points for him.

[u/ShanghaiAdobo897 → u/Redpin]

Hard agree. Truly masterful leadership wrangling those two

[u/beemugler → u/LakerGiraffe]

His Pooleness was still working at that time lol. Heat check 3s and stupid shots were actually going in, but because teams haven't figured him out yet

[u/LakerGiraffe → u/beemugler]

That shit rubbed off on Klay. Was at the OKC game and holy shit those were some of the worst shots and momentum changes I've ever seen. Very Poole-esque.

[u/JRsshirt → u/LakerGiraffe]

I think you got it flipped, Klay has always taken bad shots they just used to always go in. Poole shoots like prime Klay with a handle but way less efficient. During the KD years if the ball hit Klays hands it was usually a shot attempt right after. Go watch his 37 points in a quarter, most of the shots were bad shots.

Love Klay forever, but he doesn’t have that “how tf does this guy not miss” in him anymore and now he shoots off the dribble too.

[u/_letitsnow → u/CHRIRSTIANGREY]

tanking for Wemby

[u/Balls_of_Adamanthium → u/CHRIRSTIANGREY]

Jordan Poole on most nights

[u/PooperJackson → u/CHRIRSTIANGREY]

I wouldn't use that word but sure

[u/Blowback_]

Shaqtin a fool

[u/g-love → u/Blowback_]

Shaqtin a Poole

[u/jester32 → u/g-love]

🚨TRAGIC BRONSON ALERT 🚨

[u/Weissritters → u/jester32]

He’s gunning for the MVP… I mean shaqtin MVP

[u/Magical_Johnson13 → u/Blowback_]

Season just started and dude already has a full shaqtin reel.

[u/Fluctuating_Skills]

This guy is hilarious

[u/clefnut5 → u/Fluctuating_Skills]

Seriously though why is he so fucking bad now. This isn’t like missing all your shots bad… that is like what the hell are you doing bad

Did Draymond give this man CTE?

[u/BullShitting-24-7 → u/clefnut5]

Naw, he’s running the show now like he wanted. Before he was on a team of vets who would tell him what to do and punch him if he didn’t obey.

[u/Bisketo → u/clefnut5]

If you are dumb but sit on the passenger sit you can look hell more smarter than when you drive the car into a wall.

[u/SuperstarTraxRecords → u/Fluctuating_Skills]

He’s gonna dunk on his own hoop soon, I can’t wait

[u/Long-Furby]

Dray had to have given him CTE or something

[u/bruh2398 → u/Long-Furby]

Not even from the punch just by osmosis

[u/StefonDiggsHS]

he knows his job.

[u/The_Sign_of_Zeta → u/StefonDiggsHS]

I think he doesn’t which is even sadder.

[u/Mysterious-Part-8443 → u/The_Sign_of_Zeta]

Tank Commander - he is fulfilling his duty with dishonor and no glory

[u/Delta_FT → u/Mysterious-Part-8443]

Dishonor and disgrace? lol

[u/subzero12320931]

Wizards dgaf anyways. They tanking. But Poole is really something else.

[u/MrBuckBuck]

And that's not even his worst lowlight of the night.

He scored after this... so it worked out for him.

[u/zeek215 → u/MrBuckBuck]

He could have scored without wasting all that time. He's a clown.

[u/MrBuckBuck → u/zeek215]

He did everything he could, that's why he never passed.

Just kidding, he never intended to pass.

This dude had like 4-5 consecutive possessions where he didn't pass the ball, like AT ALL, and took the shot (sometimes making it, sometimes not), and after an intermission he did the EXACT SAME THING.

It's not like he is trying to even run a play. He is trying to do flashy thing, it works (for example, a dribble), but HE KEEPS ON MISSING.

I'd start hanging pictures with Draymond Green's face and punch in the way to the locker room if I were the Wizards.

It's like he got the Steph in him with the dribble and flashiness, but not the Curry - NO SAUCE - cannot hit a thing!

If you were to watch the Wizards' game with him tonight (and almost every other night), you wouldn't believe that there is such an NBA player who gets paid tons of money.

[u/jackinthebay → u/MrBuckBuck]

He doesn’t even have the handles. The amount of times I watched him run faster than he was dribbling last year made me crazy, it’s almost like he forgets to bring the ball with him.

Also, when he forgets his rotation and then runs like a mad man waving his hands in the air trying to somehow act like that makes a difference made me crazy too.

But he will hit some shot that’s stupid and against what the teams planning and it will boost his confidence 10000% and then miss the next 5 30 footers with 20 seconds on the clock and no defenders in front of him.

My team has no shot this year but I am glad he is gone. I couldn’t stand watching him Buffoon his way through games again

[u/taygads → u/MrBuckBuck]

This dude had like 4-5 consecutive possessions where he didn't pass the ball, like AT ALL, and took the shot (sometimes making it, sometimes not), and after an intermission he did the EXACT SAME THING.

It's not like he is trying to even run a play. He is trying to do flashy thing, it works (for example, a dribble), but HE KEEPS ON MISSING.

This is exactly what he spent the vast majority of last season doing while on the court with Klay and Steph. At least he seems to stay on his feet for you guys so far. The only thing that was worse than watching him bring the ball up, do too much driving to the basket only to chuck a layup that had zero chance of going in, was watching him sprout ice skates halfway into his drive, fall to the ground in the paint in the middle of the other team’s defenders, then watch as the other team takes the ball he just gave them and try to score in transition all before he’s gotten up off the floor. And again, more often than not either Klay, Steph, or both were on the court to pass to but he’d look them off to do that over and over and over again 🫠

[u/Justdoingthebestican → u/MrBuckBuck]

Do you watch every wizards game? Cause if you do I’m bout to buy you a bottle of bourbon or some shit

[u/I-only-play-rubick]

Who would you say has a lower BBIQ than Poole? It’s pretty hard to challenge Poole’s consistency in doing something stupid every game.

[u/livefreeordont → u/I-only-play-rubick]

McGee, Blatche, and Swaggy P used to do stuff like this every week

[u/CommandersLog → u/livefreeordont]

A proud Washington tradition.

[u/wilbo21020 → u/CommandersLog]

He’s bringing us back to our glory days. Those late 00’s Wizards teams after Gil blew up his knees and before John Wall got going were a Shaqtin dynasty.

Young Javale, Swaggy P, and the criminally underrated shaqtin star Andre Blatche were the 96 Bulls of stupid basketball. Our veteran leader brought guns to the locker room… truly a next level dumb team.

The fact that John Wall didn’t bust out of the league is a testament to his character and work ethic. I’m sure he got to Washington and wondered where the hell he was.

[u/TryingToDoItGood → u/wilbo21020]

lest we forget Javaris Crittenton!

[u/StaffSgtDignam → u/CommandersLog]

Shit is depressing man, Idk what we did here in DC to deserve such a terrible franchise :(

[u/sekhon_98 → u/StaffSgtDignam]

Getting Ovechkin

[u/drinfernodds → u/sekhon_98]

And that Nationals World Series.

[u/I-only-play-rubick → u/livefreeordont]

McGee really turned it around during his latter years by being a solid veteran in and out of the court so I kind of forgot he was the king of Shaqtin’ before.

But yeah, Blatche and Swaggy are up there.

[u/DW-4 → u/I-only-play-rubick]

Blatche still running around various YMCAs trying to get that last rebound for his triple double.

[u/ZannX → u/livefreeordont]

Yea, nephews missed out on the golden days of shaqtin in the league.

[u/LMkingly → u/I-only-play-rubick]

Javale McGee back in the day. Nowadays people think Shaq was just clowning on him for no reason or to just be mean or whatever and forget there was a good reason why he was back to back MVP and GOAT of Shaqtin a fool. Bro played like he was drunk sometimes lol.

[u/mr_sneakyTV → u/I-only-play-rubick]

I can think of a guy ruining the finals for lebron, arguably a lower low but idk about as consistent as poole. Hmmm

[u/LordCousins → u/mr_sneakyTV]

I still can’t believe that shit man lmao

[u/KevinDLasagna → u/LordCousins]

What happened? I feel as stupid as Poole right now!!

[u/baxmussman → u/KevinDLasagna]

They’re talking about JR smith in game one of the 2017 finals. Idk about ruining the finals for Lebron (I think it was a sweep) but he definitely fumbled an all time Lebron game.

[u/titusandroidus → u/baxmussman]

2018 finals. Would have been impossible to beat the Warriors in seven, but that game one fumble threw all the vibes out.

[u/chancetheclapper528]

Was at this game, gotta say watching Jordan Poole live is a very entertaining form of basketball, misses and all

[u/TheSmokedSalmon420]

"imma save some time on the clock watch this"

does the exact opposite

[u/toadtruck]

That’s absolutely hilarious. Poole has outdone himself again

[u/AdmiralWackbar]

It’s Jordan Poole’s world we’re just living in it

[u/Johan_Sebastian_Cock]

Just a terrific highlight all around. Bravo.

[u/Inevitable-Tourist18]

Super low IQ player

[u/Adaml105]

Now this is a low light for the ages

[u/vitalbumhole]

Kinda insane Dubs won a chip w this dude playing major minutes - kudos to Steph and the gang

[u/mdz_1 → u/vitalbumhole]

if wiggins goes back to being bad that chip is going to be an absolute mystery for people 5 years in the future to figure out

[u/vixgdx → u/mdz_1]

It just beefs steph's resume even more

[u/charliebrown22 → u/vitalbumhole]

Call me crazy, but the Jordan Poole that helped win the championship is not the same Jordan Poole for the next two years. It's unbelievable how stupid he has been since winning.

[u/Juaniscool-8]

LMFAOOOOO HIS REACTION TO THE CLOCK RUNNING... MORON LOL

[u/Middle-Welder3931]

If the Spurs really wanted to silent tank this year, they should have just traded for this guy, not play Sochan at PG.

[u/bbqyak]

Bro is such a clown holy fuck. RDCworld can't even write this kinda shit

[u/shakeandbake13]

This is my commander.

[u/The-Pharcyde]

Jordan Poole moment

[u/Ru-tris-bpy]

Steph’s biggest accomplishment is getting this moron a ring

[u/Shmimbadad]

Wait, I thought the whole reason guys did this was because the clock doesn't run til they pick it up. Did he touch it earlier, and trigger the clock?

[u/rBrewers → u/Shmimbadad]

the clock doesn’t stop after buckets until the last two minutes of the fourth, or the last one minute of the first three quarters. he’s just stupid

[u/Shmimbadad → u/rBrewers]

Ah, there it is. Okay. I was like, I know I've seen guys do this before, and the clock doesn't run. Guess I've only seen guys do it in the last couple minutes. For reasons that I now understand, and hopefully Poole does too.

[u/honditar → u/Shmimbadad]

Guess I've only seen guys do it in the last couple minutes.

Sometimes guys do it before the last couple minutes if their team is up. It kills game clock while allowing them to have a full shot clock upon the touch.

[u/RgBB53 → u/Shmimbadad]

I was confused about that too. Good thing no one is paying you or me $30 million a year to play basketball or we'd look very dumb.
