    I would be fine with them pretending that it was the plan all along, as long as they don't get back to the unbearable head honcho playing style.

    Been to the last few home games (I sit near corner of rox bench) since injury and he's wearing a boot. He is in good spirits though and constantly yelling, supporting, and yacking it up with all teammates.

    I want to disagree with you, but you make a compelling case...

    As long as he stays off the court the reasoning is inconsequential to me.

    Very Similar to Jeremy Lin - Alperen Sengun - Lovable and Plays Hard and Team Passer

    Carmelo Anthony and KP Injured and play Iso Ball and are Jealous of Lin - Sengun

    In Team Plays KP mostly ignores Sengun and if Force pass to Sengun KP makes a grudge face. It is noticeable. That is why Bruno and KP play together and Sengun 5 minutes early in the season which was embarrassing and shameful.

    You don't need KPJ in a losing season.

    You lose with him, lose without him.

    Try him as a bench player.

    Head honcho can take his sweet a$$ time. Rockets plays more like a team without him anyways.

    Any news on him? Seems a reporter would at least ask.

    Lol. Nobody wants him back. Reporters don't ask because he's trash. Everyone but his 6 fans would rather he never put on a Rockets jersey again. Good luck in China if they'll even take him

    Fans across the nation are buying tickets to see KpJ and he isn't answering the bell. They are the true losers. Kawhi, AD, and KPJ leave fans wanting more.

    So does anyone know what's going on with this injury? KPJ's last game was Jan, when he went out with a "left toe contusion." He was in a boot for a while, but he's been out of it for about a month now. He's missed 7 weeks and 19 games at this point, but I haven't heard much in the way of an update from team media. Did I miss something?
