I just explained to you.
"Steph goes to the bench midway through the first quarter, and Wiggins stays on the floor. Kerr's doing this so he the offense can run through Wiggins' hands to keep him motivated. Steph comes back near the end of the first quarter, and Wiggins/Poole go to the bench. Now, Steph is back leading the offense. Wiggins comes back a couple minutes into the second quarter to play alongside Steph, and then Steph goes back to the bench midway through the second quarter and in comes Poole. The offense is now running though Wiggins again."
When Steph is in the game, he's leading the offense.
When Steph goes to the bench, Wiggins is leading the offense in that 6th man role.
Steph and Wiggins have typically always played the majority of their minutes together, but Kerr has realized Wiggins isn't aggressive when he's playing alongside Steph, and just stands in the corner. The initiative he's now taken is, split the time they have together, so that Wiggins can have time to himself on the floor without Steph. That affects Poole's development because he's supposed to be handling the ball when Steph's on the bench. But now, Wiggins is in that role.
To reiterate:
Normally, when Steph goes to the bench at the end of the first quarter, the 6th man comes in and leads the offense. But now, Steph is going to the bench midway through the first quarter, and the only reason for that is, to have Wiggins leading the offense to keep him motivated. That's what the 6th man does; he relieves the primary ball-handler and main offensive option when they go to the bench. That's the role Wiggins is now playing.
In yesterday's game, the only time that Poole had leading the offense was in the final 3-4 minutes of the game when Wiggins and Steph both went to the bench.
Do you see why I'm worried for Poole now?
The Warriors are going out of their way to coddle Wiggins, and it's fukking up the offense and development of Poole.
