    On a 20 win team that tries to lose.

    He's still better than who we've started at SG the past 3 years and likely better than who we'll start at SG this next season.

    That is cool, the Thunder are waiting for Clips to start KPJ, they own their FRPs.

    I’m sure that KPJ can bring the winning leadership that the Clippers are looking for after losing Paul George for nothing. LOL. This new CBA makes teams do weird things.

    Is he? The dude is so unprofessional and just a punk who poisoned the culture while he was here. The levels went up the minute he left.

    KPJ was not a ****ing fall guy. The Rockets were handing this fool the keys to the franchise. His dumbass just decided to stir up issues and Stone was shamed into getting rid of him. This was Stone's pet project.

    He kinda was though. Gave him Nix as a backup and a bunch of GLeagers if not named named Green, Jabari, or Sengun. The organization had no plans on winning. He was also told he was suppose to be mini Harden & the future duo with Green, so him being selfish with the ball at time made sense with the dog **** team they gave him to tank this team

    If he wasn’t a dumb ass he would’ve been a solid piece last season

    He's a cancerous headcase but he's still young and has a lot of talent. I can't BELIEVE they gave him a player option though. Yikes!

    KPJ will contribute, no question.
    They’re also signing Derrick Jones Jr. from the Mavs.
    Harden’s usage goes up, he’s still a bulldozer…
    All-in-all I don’t see a big drop-off from losing PG13.

    So how are we making the playoffs, guys? MEM will be back. GSW will replace Kay’s production with Podziemski and Kuminga… D.Murray makes the Pels better… It’s gonna be tough

    I used to cringe when KPJ would be on the court . So glad he’s not here . Def not a point guard cause his decision making on the court was disastrous

    Nah bro you just don’t care for Jalen. I get it.

    Same here for KPJ. Except the team benefited when KPJ got traded. He forced Stone’s hand by acting an ass off the court. But it helped the culture, so having him around is a complete negative. That’s proven. It was addition by subtraction.
