What will happen to KPJ?

  1. Miles Bridges 2.0, a 30 game suspension and the whole thing is pushed under the rug

    26.1%
  2. OJ Mayo 2.0: KPJ gets a massive suspension and is all but black-balled out of the NBA

    53.5%
  3. Aaron Hernandez 2.0: Bridges serves actual hard time

    20.4%

    Loved the missed free throws and how the fans rejoiced!

    Kevin threw in the food in a different manner for a change.

    KPJ putting points on the board in a meaningless blowout.

    The more things change, the more they stay the same.

    Dude is playing really, really bad for the Clips so far, in addition to still being a terrible human being

    Not a big fan of Jalen these days but I'd still much rather have him on his new contract than KPJ on any amount of $$

    Kevin is on a 2 million minimum contract so the Clippers are not risking anything really for a marginal bench player.

    Funny how you direct your support. KPJ is a scumbag who beat a woman.

    I never liked KPJ from the beginning. I complained about his face being primary on billboards. Front office takes an L.

    They advertised him as the next PG from Cleveland with a shady past.

    He's against criminals unless they can play basketball, poorly. Being a bad teammate is a bonus.

    Houston got a worthless scumbag from Cleveland, Houston sent a worthless scumbag to Cleveland.

    World keeps turning.

    DD's wet dream. Rockets sign KPJ to multi-year contract.

    99% against but the 1% of Stone and Fertitta's wet dream foster kid that can slash, score, assist, play uptempo.

    I was probably as big as a KPJ supporter just as much as DD and Bobby but I would honestly rather give Cam a chance then bring him back

    Bam! He does everything we need; good at catch and shoot, extra ballhandler, and can penetrate.

    I can live with;

    Sengun/Adams
    Jabari/Tari
    KD/ Cam
    Amen/KPJ
    FVV/Reed

    At this point dude is probably just another 13th man off the pine that you can waive any time.

    I am glad we are not associated with him no more, even if they signed him to a minimum contract, you can easily get rid of him.

    Cam is fine, if he gets his head straight on, he is going to make 10x, 15x more than KPJ in this league.

    Same. The KPJ ship has sailed, he had his shot and blew it. He'd still probably be an upgrade over Jalen, but that's not saying a lot and certainly isn't the standard for being a target for the Rockets.

    I'm not sure Ime is willing to give Cam a chance, so the Rockets likely need to look elsewhere.

    good old days when posters argued he was similar to Brunson in terms of production and value.

    If he comes to the rockets, we'll probably see Ime chasing him off the court with bat in his hand.
