    Someone on this thread got sued for fraud.

    Hint: It's not @Nook.

    So u won’t trust Nook, but you’ll trust any ol’ random claiming he’s a fraud based off?

    if Nook was saying KPJ was an angel behind the scenes, bet anyone here he’d believe it without hesitation

    and we have multiple people that have told us KPJ is a problem, not just Nook

    U think this “just get rid of KPJ” rhetoric on this pod was spawned from thin air?

    Note its wild double d is demanding proof regarding kpj, knowing that any definitive proof will out the source which he seems to not care about.

    Meanwhile the man is "protecting" nooks accuser by withholding his name and any proof of actual evidence.

    Hypocrisy is too much for me

    I don't think there's any chance Nook is lying, but I also realize that the "just get rid of KPJ" rhetoric spawned from Jalen Green and Jabari Smith being terrible at basketball.

    If they weren't stinking it up, none of the rhetoric blaming KPJ for it all would be a thing.

    Instead of focusing on another CF user, the thread title and topic was by Givony. Maybe we can go back to focus on that.

    Whether or not Givony and Lowe were acting on older Intel or recent (but already public) like Wall, folks can judge for themselves, and believe if Givony has other Rocket sources.

    The bad culture could extend beyond KPJ. How bad it is, who knows. But end result is team looks like they're stuck in mud as far as developmental growth. We don't need inside sources to see that.

    Sometimes I rather not peek behind the curtains, but the org to figure it out themselves. Instead of knowing how the sausage is made, just give us a better final product on the floor. Give the fan base a solid vision for the future.

    If Org needs to crowd source ideas from us fans to save their jobs, they're in trouble.

    Honestly Reeko, I have no idea what to believe, I do believe there is bias against KPJ and it has gotten out of hand, most from people who just don't like him.

    For me, it is all about the NOW, the Rockets - if KPJ is being an asshat, I want him gone, but before that, I want to know why we would cut or jettison our best NBA guard and probably our 2nd best player.

    I don't know Nook from what I have read here, seems like a good guy, but I don't know if he is real or not this is the internet people make **** up all the time because they want that attention......what i am asking is someone to say something specific.....doesn't need to be SO AND SO TOLD ME .....just what kind of stuff is he doing that would make us dump him?

    I don't think that is unreasonable, but the DD haters and KPJ haters jump to any vague statement with a "Here I told you so" and there is nothing there.....

    Don't be vague, be direct.......and again, I don't see any of the people stepping up to take my permabet ban - funny how that is

    .....everyone willing to call me a fraud and even having ATW post one of the most painful episodes in my life, where our company finished a project, the publisher tries to steal it from us and keep all the money, we all sue each other - they lose People in this country can sue for no reason and try to run you out of money - and for me and my company to stand up - and say enough - was a huge triumph, but it also shows what a low life stalking little b**** ATW is to even know that, but that has been his MO for years.

    LOL whoever spent their time actually sending a loser pm is definitely a lame and nobody worth even taking seriously.

    This is straight comical. Whoever you are you’re actually lucky you’re not getting named or id laugh my ass of for a long time at you

    the fact that a thread turned into this spearheaded by one of the oldest geezers here with nothing better to do makes it that much more hilarious. As if it’s important. Nobody gives af what you think about @Nook


    DD is an embarrassment to this board. Nook is respected. You just wish you could get any sort of his relevance

    The whining about KPJ wouldn't be happening if Jalen Green and Jabari Smith weren't absolute trash.....because the team wouldn't be losing like they are if Jalen Green and Jabari Smith weren't absolute trash. There would be no need for a scapegoat.

    • Someone on this thread claims someone else might be a fraud, based on an alleged PM.
    • Someone on this thread got sued for fraud.
    • Someone on this thread is having an embarrassing, epic meltdown.
    Hint: It may or may not be the same person.

    KPJ will always have idiots who follow him lije Bobby and DD
    This response is a far nicer one then I would have given. Everyone here knows you are legit. You've proven that many times.

    Everyone knows DD is a clown who will do anything to get attention. The fact he thinks anyone is stupid enough to believe that anyone contacted him is beyond laughable

    How about y'all all try to get a more fulfilling life and then maybe you won't feel the need to rage on an internet forum against people you don't know or care about.

    So tell me DD, why would Givony come out and say what he did? Random anti-KPJ bias? He’s just a “hater?” Why?

    What’s more likely? Givony is trying to slander the name of a good man because he has an agenda, or KPJ is actually a problem behind the scenes and the Rockets do what they can to keep it under wraps?

    U really think KPJ throwing food and driving off at halftime was the only incident he had last year? I bet the reality is it’s just the one we found out about.

    Why would KPJ be given so many non-guarantees in his contract if he wasn’t a problem off the court? When have u seen a player receive a deal like that, and it had nothing to do with health concerns?
