    Fair enough, you might just be stupid. I gave you the benefit of the doubt that it was just cognitive bias blinding you because I'm nice like that.

    If you keep on like that, people might figure out that you're just another of my burner accounts.

    Now "like" my posts clown.

    no... i'm not going to give you the validation that you obviously so desperately desire... why else would someone post over 55K messages on a chat board in under a decade... lol
    ...and thats not even counting your burner accounts... lol

    It's super easy, barely an inconvenience. Just go back and forth with stupid people....like I am doing with you right now, every once in a while and even someone such as yourself could build a respectable post count.....and that's not bad given that you're clearly just another one of my burner accounts.

    KPJ is just the Green haters way of not giving Green credit for playing like a super star in his rookie year... Any time Green does something good there will be that dumbass that talked $hit about Green early on reminding everyone about what a night KPJ had despite how terribly inefficient KPJ is...

    Instead of giving props to Green they want to push this bs KPJ is playing well narrative.. KPJ is a bad point guard, a knuckle head that quit on The Rockets and does not like to share the rock... He chucks all game, don't get me wrong... I think KPJ will be huge for The Rockets future since his play ins contributing greatly toward Chet or Jabari.... I truly appreciate it.

    The crazy thing is, the 2nd round pick is heavily protected. It is top 55 protected which means it likely wont convey. The Cavs were so mad they gave him up for free.

    Are you arguing that KPJ was "inefficient" in the last game or was this just a knee jerk mindless comment?

    Do yourself a favor and attempt to think before you respond.

    KPJ is a bad pg, but to say he isnt playing well is just wrong. You acting like he is a trash player but he is averaging 15 4 6 on 37% 3 pt shooting. His overall efficiency isnt there yet but hey there's a reason Green is the 2nd pick and KPJ is the 30th pick. They are both good prospects for the team its just the fit that needs work.

    KPJ is efficient? Not talking about how many shots he hit, I'm talking about dribble dribble turnover... Dribble dribble bad shot.... Some of the bad shots he takes go in.. Does not mean it was an efficient or good shot. He make's no one better... He is a terrible point guard... I know you love him because its youe avenue to discredit Green but don't try and say KPJ is something he is not...

    KPJ as a guard with a good point guard creating and facilitating could be really good... I said in the last game thread I liked him without Wood, Green and KPJ play well together but KPJ is a mindless chucker... If he can take good shots and mature then yeah I don't mind him being in Houston another year..

    And what will happen if he does not get cut and this was just growing pains?

    The fact that you think it's definite this happens next year shows you are not even trying to look at him fairly.

    KPJ turns it over 13.5% of the time he has the ball on offense, 52% of his shots are 3s but he has a scanty .527 TS% (yikes), he shoots 62% from the charity stripe, and 44% on 2pt FGs. KPJ is a scoring wing tasked with trying to play PG in the NBA. He is not an NBA caliber PG and that becomes abundantly clear when watching him play. This team desperately needs a true PG and rebounding.

    He is also playing on a team that's devoid of talent outside a rookie, but for some reason you don't account for that.

    This team needs a lot more than a true pg and what the hell is a true pg anymore, how many "true" pg's are even on playoff teams?

    CP3 is the only one I can name off the top of my head.

    So you're saying HE'S the reason why the Rockets are still fighting for the worst record instead of having it sowed up by now? Got it!

    I don’t know what these numbers mean but you could take Young, Ball brothers, Morant or any other young point in the league and I would love to see how they do with the same team KPJ was given as a Trojan horse tank job

    I think kpj is a good player and all but I wouldn't group him in the same echelon of young, morant,
    I am still positive that the results would be better if any of these players were playing as point guard cause guess what? They r actual point guards. U can't b saying oh its kpj first year learning how to play point guard hence the struggles and then say no real point guard can do better. Wild.
