KPJ: Can someone explain to me why he has become Clutchfans favorite whipping boy?

Green had a haircut. It takes a couple of weeks to get used to the new aerodynamics.

 

Typical booby deflecting any criticism about kpj, and u hear the man btching about Green poor performance.

Last year he like to use +/- to sht on green guess who once again had the lowest +/- this game? It ain't green. It was a poor performance by green just find it amusing booby reaction is so predictable.

 

Using +/- against a player with no additional evidence is the culprit of looking for stats to blame a player.

This also reminded me that there were also pages long arguments on how KPJ's on/off of +4 last year proved that he is the best player in the team. I don' t remember whether it was Bobby or Apache. Of course you don't see this argument anymore, as it is -7.3 this year, still best player in the team though.

 

Eh, yes?

 

He's joking.

 

I don't care if he got a meaningless basket...they could have played defense...

I care that the team doesn't play consistently in a system....we need a new coach.

I'm surprised he didn't jog backwards up the court with his arm outstretched pointing at the Timberwolves players either.

Seems to be a favourite past time of his. As well as losing the ball game. He hasn't quite put two and two together that you don't showboat or gloat when you're losing.

But hey, it's only his fourth year in the NBA. Maybe by year 10 he'll get into double digits IQ.

 

Used to drive me nuts when Steve Francis pulled the showboating, not a fan of it now either.

Especially as it is hurting our chances of winning.....we need a new coach ASAP to stop that crap and hold the players accountable.

KPJ is an embarrassing player for the organization. He'll never get it. Just a clown.

 

This is why I hate KPJ.

 

This guy gets it.

The difference is - other teams WANT TO GIVE KPJ HIS SHOTS while they game-plan for Alpi, and double-team him. They know that when KPJ gets "his" (which is his main goal), they win.

 

“Let him get his” is often the strategy teams use against the star player on the opposing team. Difference is the real stars can often burn you with 30/40/50 points and single handedly carry the team to win. KPJ on the other hand can’t carry the offense even after “he gets his”, which is normally 20-ish on a good night.

 

Yes, and more importantly, he destroys any rhythm or flow for his teammates.

 

He’s out!

 

Turns out KPJ made Jalen Green suck at basketball again tonight without even being on the court.

 

Well they say steel sharpens steel, so I guess the new one is suck rubs off on(sharpens) suck, the ring leader is the elder player by default n seniority

 

I do like KPJ, I'm rooting for him. I certainly can't deny that we looked to improve a lot when he went out. I think KJ shows way more flashes of breaking out tbh, and I also think Tate has better vision and should be given a shot at the PG to see what happens.

 

KPJ being out made the entire team play better, lol.

 

It sure didn't help Jalen....he was in full on chucker mode turning the ball over and playing no defense.

KJ Martin stepped up, but it wasn't enough to overcome just how terrible Jalen Green is at basketball.

 

In the end, the team still got blown out.

Maybe have a larger sample size of more than 1 game before you conclude that KPJ is the root of all evil in the team.
