    We’re talking about “body language”, “on the court”. There are so many guys do drugs, or even shoot people. But we’re not talking about that are we?

    You’re supposed to be a rockets fan and acting like you’ve never seen bad body language like that. Remember a guy named James Harden?

    Yes I remember Harden, and no I’ve never seen bad body language like that.

    I think you might be expecting WAY too much from certain types of people. You just have to accept the shortcomings of fanbois. They can't help themselves.

    Obviously lol. I also think it’s funny how they ask for proof of these things, acting like they didn’t watch every game like I did lol

    That’s why we are asking for proof, because you are wrong like you usually are.

    Harden complains to the refs, gives up defensive plays.

    But what KPJ did was in an offensive play, he just quit the play in disgust, simply because his teammate didn’t pass him the ball. To me that’s on a different level.

    Yes he gave up defensive plays, like I said. But KPJ’s clip was MUCH worse.

    KPJ should be fined, that move was detrimental to sportmanship......bad bad sign.

    The Rockets are a joke mainly because of this loose culture, Silas, season record, Stone, F family......media landscape writing fluff pieces.

    Are you talking about the Toronto game? That comes close to this. But everyone and their mother scolded him for it, and rightfully so.

    KPJ’s behavior is still worse because he’s basically telling his teammates how dare you not pass me the ball, even though other players are in a better position. What a head honcho.

    Kpj stans are quite sad. Making stories up about other players on the team to justify kpj sht behavior/body language on the court.

    Btch about only fan behavior proceeds to do the exact same sht

    DARKO sure likes him, and that's the best public projection system according to NBA teams.

    Yeah, see this is what I'm talking about. Didn't he get suspended for one game or benched for one game the previous season? If so, that's the only peep I've heard about behavioral stuff. John Wall said he and Jalen get away with ****, but he was talking about the way they play—and maybe practice? He wasn't saying that they were bad teammates or anything negative in fact. He basically said they didn't have any guidance/supervision.

    Best I know from articles when the Rox acquired him is that he was deeply effed up due to childhood traumas and basically had no help until John Lucas started working with him. Sure sounds to me like his progress should be celebrated, but his rep is just screwed, maybe for good, to some degree at least, because of his freakout in Cleveland.
