His high draft pick selections have been great and at worst he’s brought in too much talent by using too many selections in the first round. He also proved he could offload draft picks that we didn’t need at minimal cost; so what I say is using too many selections - he’d say he was taking extra chances at landing special talent. In the end, I’d probably agree with him. In the moment, it frustrated me. I thought Tilman was cutting cost with Stone’s hire and that we would move on quickly. I was wrong. Stone has been solid. I’ve been pleasantly surprised

How hard is it to pick in the top 3 or 4? He’s taken the consensus pick that’s fallen to him every time. I could’ve looked at any mock draft each year and done the same, Stone isn’t anything special.
I’ve seen many misses. Morey hates the draft so much he trades out of it. go and look at the top four picks year in and year out. There are big misses in nearly every single one.
Bingo. His Stans roll out the red carpet for something that teams already made the decision for him. He picked up scrubs like Garuba when he really had a number of better choices. Clearly failed in that regard. Tyty was a waste of a pick and they ended up just dumping him for nothing
Never forget the time KPJ pouted for an entire possession because Jabari didn't pass the ball straight to him. Nothing is sadder/funnier than Green looking at KPJ twice to confirm KPJ is actually quitting blatantly during a possession.
at least we found out sooner rather than later. imagine if he did this after we owed him more money? i really wanted to get rid of him a while ago, but was willling to give him a second chance if he came off the bench and became that sparkplug and accepted his role as a team player. i'm sorry kevin that you ruined your life. i hope that you find salvation in jesus christ. only the big man above can change someone from within and exorcize those demons he has.
I never liked KPJ, and I never thought he was good enough to even remotely be worth the distractions he clearly brought. And I didn't even know how bad of a person he really was. I tried to give him a chance, but something about him always seemed fake, manipulative, and just off. Get him the **** out of here already.
Yep. Should've been benched for a few games based on just that one play. Superstars can get away with occasional crap like that, but not guys who already should be on short leashes. I'm just glad he's going to be someone else's headache now. Like the Manhattan DA's office.
That's crazy we allowed this bullshit. But yeah, Stone had shotgun seat to the Harden Royal treatment, so this was minimal.
He's going to go down as one of those guys who had it all but was too big of a loser to handle his own success. He could have been great, but instead he will probably be dead by 30. KPJ is the kind of dude they write cautionary tales about. Such a waste.
Welp, looks like the great Rafel Stone dumped even more draft assets to clean up his mess, and to give Tillboy his MVP, Luxury Tax Savings.
