What will happen to KPJ?

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

    25.6%
  2. OJ Mayo 2.0: KPJ gets a massive suspension and is all but black-balled out of the NBA

    53.8%
  3. Aaron Hernandez 2.0: Bridges serves actual hard time

    20.5%

    Model citizen mode engaged.

    I'll give it til April or so before he screws up and assaults someone and the Clippers have to figure out what to do with a bozo having a player option.

    I think we will see a great re-shuffling of the pecking order in the Western conference this upcoming season.

    The Rockets and the Grizzlies will finish ahead of the Lakers and Warriors.

    KPJ is just a low character individual on and off the court. Allergic to accountability in any form. The Clippers have enough problems without adding that one. But hey, he’s not a Rocket and that’s a GREAT thing at the end of the day.

    A lot of athletes have low character, what matters at the end of the day is talent and he has it, that's why he was always going to be back this year and he'll probably do well playing next to Harden.

    Agreed. I'd much rather give KPJ a second chance than hope for an AJ Griffin turnaround.

    I like the options we have here already, if I didn't, then I'd be fine with him being back.

    As it is, I hope he takes advantage of his opportunity and does well for himself.....except when playing against the Rockets of course.

    Porter is a starting NBA level player. He was playing out of position his whole tenure here. On purpose to get the draft positioning as we built our roster. He was the fall guy. All that said he is not a role model or leader. I truly wish him well as long as he says away.

    This guy isn't even that good. How does he keep getting chances?

    porter’s biggest problem on the court is that he’s a selfish POS who doesn’t pass or rotate when he’s supposed to. small odds that changes any time soon. glad to leapfrog the paper clips in the playoff seedings now :)
