Kevin Porter Jr. loses temper, leaves Toyota Center during 2nd half

**** yes! He and Lew Lloyd and Wiiggins, all they had to do was admit it and go into treatment for two months instead they lied got caught and were banned for two years.

the Rox would have several more rings otherwise.

Lmao didn't he better himself? Drug era in the NBA and the whole country.

I mean, come on now, that is hardly the reason KPJ is such a flake.

 

No, true

KPJ is a young immature talented player. The org needs to draw the line with him.

I just don’t think Silas is the guy to do that.

Ok .. I don't condone but now I get why... But I never wanna see you post about maturity, " being butt hurt" or holding grudges again ... lol

 

I was rooting for KPJ but he's honestly not worth all this trouble because he's still a PG in training. C Wood needs to be traded.
One thing should be abundantly clear to everyone...we need John Wall to play. Now's the best time to insert him in the starting lineup and make KPJ come off the bench. There have to be consequences. A 1 game suspension isn't enough. He should know he's on thin ice.

Rafael Stone is going to be busy.

 

Rockets should reach out to Ron Artest and introduce him to KPJ.

 

Question, why are we so upset about this?

We saw the red flags of both players - I documented it the Wood one.

Sure, we hoped they play nice up to a point.

But it does not surprise me.

 

Oh i hold grudges for sure.

I'd be willing to bet this isn't kpj's first time blowing up like this.

Just the first it's been made public.
He's gotta go.

 

Wood I think maybe beyond repair, Porter I think just needs someone to mentor him.

both are talented, and unique but I think porter really cares and not sure wood does.

If they don't get rid of him ( which I approve) ...That would honestly be a blessing.. He would fit better as a 6th man anyway IMO... His mentality isn't that of a starting caliber player.. It'll help him get adjusted for a more deserving and effective role for his dumb ass...

 

as my friend would say, what's REALLY going on here?

 

It was a worthwhile experiment, but he needs to go.

 

Dun let it ruin new year.

Back to it.

 

Growth isn’t linear.

Suspend KPJ and bring him off the bench when he returns.

Then continue to teach.

 

His blow up is definitely not good but at least he is quick to make amends, and I think at minimum a 1-2 game suspension is warranted. If he takes that in stride then he's already infinitely more salvageable than Wood, considering Wood is supposed to be a veteran presence on this team.

 

He should apologise to the team and ball out the rest of the season, that it.

 

I wonder what kind of discipline these guys would have faced if this didn't come out...

Silas was covering for these guys saying Wood not playing was CD and the team said kpj was injured.

This is a chance to really lay down the law. I hope they do so with a heavy hand.

 

posters praising Tilman and the org that we are changing the toxic culture of babying "diva harden". Looks like nothing change, players throwing bigger tantrums than harden in even less time.

 

You say KPJ needs a mentor, but that is basically the role Lucas has played in the league for the last 20 years, and is well respected for You say that Silas isn't strong enough to stand up to KPJ, but that is what Lucas was doing, he was telling KPJ things he didn't want to hear. So what you're saying is that the Rockets need a mentor for KPJ that will call him out, yet that is exactly what triggered him.

I've never seen such a toxic, and regressing fringe 2nd rounder get treated like he was a top 3 pick. I'm fine with losing him for nothing, as was Cleveland. The kid has talent, but it's overshadowed with selfishness and poor decision making, both on and off the court.
