    Here you got involking the young women by your grandstanding. You are really a piece of work
    What a condescending little **** you are lol I realize that's all you have and im not surprised this is your tactic. Still its hilarious that you keep going back to it even when called out. So of how you guys kept with KPJ. People really dont change that much. If there's any lesson you take from this learn that.

    I believe there is a Domestic Violence protocol within the NBA and the State of NY handles it differently.

    It takes more time to handle things.

    I do think Stone is really hung up on those young guys.

    Technically they can cut him I think....but you have to confirm that. @heypartner

    In the layman eyes it is not as complicated but surely is.

    1. I sincerely don't get your first sentence and the point you are making. Like I actually don't understand even the general idea of what you are saying there.

    2. I was nowhere close to a KPJ stan. I'm a Green stan and it was very obvious.

    So you can rest assured that I'm being extremely sincere when I think it's toxic to say stuff like posters enabled KPJ or posters are defending KPJ"s actions.

    I don't know if it's been mentioned but strangulation in domestic violence situations leads to death further down. I hope she's safe and has the support and help she needs.

    It's a key escalation indicator.

    Thank you for a normal response. We got @MadMax / @Rocketeer and @fchowd0311 making every excuse in the book for him. "You see guys, he's actually just a mercurial personality with father issues so it's ok that he's been a nonstop malcontent and now criminal that strangles women." GTFO with your virtue signaling.

    I think it's really dangerous for people to make judgements about their acumen in predicting behavior or being a good judge of character based on what most likely is just most people being probabilistically right rather than right due to acumen in character judgement.


    99% of the posters before this incident who were very critical of KPJ as a human also coincidentally hated his play on the court. So the reality is most of these people are *right" because their opinion of a player on the court effected their opinion of him as a person and now are merely probabilistically right that he is a lost cause. So yes I think the vast majority of people who are trying to shame other posters for riding the KPJ train are "right" not because of their acumen in character judgement but because of their circumstantial opinions of him on the court and not liking his play.

    There are posters here that partially attribute KPJ beating up a women due to nail polish....

    I highly doubt those type of people are good judges of character. They stumbled upon being "right" here.

    A fracture at the spine is serious enough.

    Primo wasn’t arrested and beat a woman’s ass. Spurs handled the situation internally. Kpj’s dumbass has made this public for the entire world to see and now the league has to get involved. Hence it’s already been reported the nba needs to do their own investigation before the rockets formally dump him. Aka they have jurisdiction

    Sometimes I have to remember that there might be 15-20 year old posters here who might be incapable of deep nuanced discussion.


    Name one person here who are merely addressing KPJ's childhood issues who are stating that KPJ should be let free and suffer no consequences?

    It is a bad look for the NBA and the Players Association as well so they are at the phones right now.

    Reaching out and do damage control.

    This comes one month from the Media Days and the Ramp Up for the New Season.

    CNN and major news outlets watching that ish unfolding.

    There's a difference between an explanation and an excuse that you don't seem to understand. You can say and recognize that an individual has a mercurial personality and has mental issues AND also know this person is dangerous and needs to be held accountable for his actions. Understanding why people do bad things and behave a certain way is not a bad thing, its actually a good thing and definitely NOT an excuse.

    These people don't even realize that empathy is a utility tool. For example if you are a commander in a war, empathy for the enemy is a useful utility because it gives a good predictor of actions.

    If you want to know what our criminal justice system is so regressive irs because Americans hold these views on empathy in mass.

    And no, the criminal justice system isn't wrong for arresting KPJ here because I know one of these clown posters are going to acuse me of stating that the criminal justice system is in shambles because they arrested KPJ. I'm just stating that people holding these views on empathy or not understanding the basics of empathy in mass is why our justice system is so ****ed.

    Its a possibility that KPJ doesn't play in the NBA again, and it would be warranted.

    She actually seemed to be having a very good influence on him when they started dating, he got rid of that haircut because of her, was saying the right things, he was even doing the right things to an extent w the front office, was the only player to show up to Ime's press conference, but whatever demons he has are obviously still there.
