    Wasn't the ex-girlfriend the one who even accused KPJ of all this, in the first place?

    Makes no sense for her to backtrack now, unless, like y'all have said, money speaks volumes.

    I guess I don't follow domestic violence cases much, but is it common for the victim to come to the perpetrator's defense in this way?

    “He didn’t hit me. He never balled his fists up and hit me,” Gondrezick insisted. “And he definitely didn’t punch me in the face numerous times. That is a lie. I don’t have any injuries to support that.”

    She even claims "that the DA’s office didn’t wait to interview her, or get access to her full medical records, before releasing details of the alleged attack and of her injuries."

    Maybe it is a ploy to get settlement money as people are accusing her of doing. Or could it be that the DA did overstep its bounds? If the case goes to court, would Gondrezick take the stand to say all this?

    Weird situation.

    That seems like a real reach to say so authoritatively. But that's Twitter/X, I suppose.

    I’m not a DV expert either but as I understand, yes.

    Protect their abuser, minimize the abuse, stay with their abuser and sadly, it becomes a cycle.

    She's from a rich family. Both her parents were athletes. John Lucas is her godfather. She's use to money

    Yup, Just as I thought, this case will be ultimately dropped, or at worst will be a misdemeanor.

    Now, we have no idea what happened in that room, and there were not witnesses, lots of people in this very thread were making up crap like they knew - this happens in a ton of DV cases, where the ALLEGED victim recants - sometimes because they want a settlement sometimes because what is reported never happened or it was much less than reported.

    Do I believe there was a confrontation - yes, do I believe the police report - no. Do I have any idea who is telling the truth - I do not.....and I doubt the case goes to trial at all now.

    KPJ is off the Rockets now though - which most folks wanted - but if this all blows over - like I suspect it will now...he might get a chance elsewhere in the NBA.

    Just a bizarre end to his Rox career.

    Guess her sister should have checked with her first.

    Who knows, maybe you can ask her sister....for everyone.

    We better have not lost a franchise player because of a narrative and not the truth... Rockets got nothing for KPJ, he was a big part of The Rockets future and probably one of the deciding factors for Udoka to come here....

    b****, please. Udoka did NOT take that job because he got a boner watching KPJ play.

    Some of you guys are just pulling stuff out ya ass to justify your weird affection for a mediocre player.

    She healed up in one month, got the offer from Porter's attorneys and reps, decided okay, I break up with him but I want that money......tried to save career, hahaha, but at least he was waived.

    I have sympathies with victims but she was never really that sympathetic to begin with, good looks alrite.

    She gets part of that 16 million.....KPJ can screw himself in another league, good luck, home girl.
