    With zero doubt in my mind. The worst persona I have encountered over the entire internet that I have ever seen. Not just clutchfans I mean the whole internet. I just unblocked him and search for his posts and read the last 15-20. Hilarious


    The man has issues

    the thought of KPJ back in the lineup tomorrow running the floor makes me physically ill. I literally cannot stand watching him and Jalen operate together. They’ve warn me down. I can’t stand watching Jalen either, but mostly I can’t stand KPJ trying to run the offense by dominating the ball. I can’t stand it.

    I 100 % agree. How can Fertitta think that having to watch KPJ is not a huge turn-off for everyone but his 6 die-hard fans on this forum?

    And Silas is just unacceptable.

    Stop trotting such a crap product out there, Fertitta.

    Shut up and listen!

    My definition of a true franchise player is: this player has the ability to lead a team to 55+ wins and is capable of being by far the best player on a title team. Luca is absolutely a franchise player. Lilliard is boarderline for me but probably a no

    That is lame, seriously.....I have not liked many players and the way they play but I always get behind them during the game.

    Seriously, what would make someone hate someone that much? Seems strange.

    Take a break until they are good again then.....no need to stress yourself out over a player or a silly game of basketball.

    I dunno. I have read Bobby insult probably over a 100 people on here. When someone acts like that it may annoy an average person but if I sit there and contemplate it a bit I usually just pity a person like that. Even online you can see it almost as a cry for help.

    Either need to get laid or have a friend or counselor to talk to etc

    Ya he’s often very rude/abrasive/arrogant but he’s not the pure level of idiocy you get for hakeem94, i guess it’s pick your poison lol

    Well KPJ is not selfish, he is playing a style, but the Rockets only ISO about 8% of the time, most of the time he dribbles creates a shot for himself or someone else.

    Now you may not like the herky jerky style but he is beating others and that is so needed when teams clamp down on D.....look how terrible we were today without a single person on the roster that can win a 1v1 battle on the perimeter.

    KPJ is doing great, really good, and has been balling for awhile now......he is developing into a star player, I would hate for that to happen and people just can't get by their own bias and miss out on the birth of a Rox star.

    move him off the ball and I like him much better. We need shooters; he’s our best one. Let’s move him off the ball and let him shoot instead of asking him to run the floor, where he dominates the ball.

    Maybe if we had another option we could do that but we don't.

    While I want to agree, KPJ has never in his basketball life played off ball and his personality definitely isn't the type to be okay with just spotting up in the corner or on the wing instead of dominating the ball.

    While it doesn't hurt to try, ultimately I don't see him succeeding in an off-ball role either. Until he has a drastic change in attitude and sees the importance of selflessness and playing for the team, nothing will change with him.

    He strikes me as someone who will eventually become a useful player to a team that’s trying to win, but it won’t be this team or his next team, and it won’t be in the 2020s

    Watching Sengun play defense is a turn off. Dude can’t protect the rim nor stay in front of anybody. He scores 15 and gives up 30

    None of that is true. Other than Bruno who played two minutes, he had the best +/- yesterday, as in many games.

    More importantly, turnovers are no longer important. Sengun can turn the ball over 6 times a game and it's fine.....because Sengun.
