A Workplace Romance? or Reckless PDA?: Is Jordan Poole's Relationship with Reporter Kerosene Carson Just A Tad Bit Too Much?

______________________________After Game 1 of the Warriors vs Nuggets a couple weeks, a curious reporter by the name of Kerosene Carson picked up the mic and started an interview with the Rookie Shooting Guard, Jordan Poole.
On his first ever playoff game, Poole scored a career-high of 30 points, listing him as the 3rd Warrior of All-Time to do so.

Twitter has been going crazy over his obsession with reporter, Kerosene Carson of Bleacher Report, and it is so ever being thrown in fans faces every time the camera turns on.

Ever since that day, she has been the one to interview the star man after every game.
