    "Laughter is an instant vacation" -- especially when you hear someone go hyper critical on a guy and then read him try and give the same person backhanded compliments. "good shot KPJ" .. "bad shot KPJ" LMAO. You are just another blowhard who thinks he can coach and be a GM at the same time. You're a dime a dozen fan so instead of playing a moderate why not just embrace how much you dislike the player and move on? You're little "I dont care" attitude is nothing new either - it literally applies to every single player on this team depending on what faction you hold dear.

    Like I said when KPJ is in the starting lineup game 1 next year who will you turn your scorn towards? My bet will be Stone.

    I will not get over him walking out on his team at halftime. As far as I’m concerned, we can trade back to Cleveland for the food he threw in his temper tantrum.

    Well it's good that you admit that you don't have a valid opinion.

    He apologized the team accepted it, move on.

    How bad would it be if we were all judged on our worst moments?

    Do you remember when KPJ got hurt and EVERYONE was saying how awesome the offense would look with Sengun as the focus and TyTy playing "floor general" and all that stuff?? Did you also know that the offense REGRESSED while KPJ was out? Inconvenient huh? Sure, sure you "always knew he was a talented player" :rolleyes: at least you're smart enough to hedge!

    Funny how you don’t mention I do the exact same thing for Green and Sengun in your little irrational rant there. If I like something in a game thread I call it out. If I don’t like something I also call it out. I also don’t hate KPJ, I just don’t think highly of him or care much for him. If I actually hated him, I would be actively rooting for us to trade him. Try finding me asking for that in my post history while you no life scour it. ;)

    Now Nix and Silas on the other hand, there was a lot of hate there.

    Its the wildest timeline isnt it? The Rockets were the worst shooting team in the NBA and somehow that was because of the PG position! :D:D:D:D:D

    Wrong our offense got better despite replacing KPJ with Nix. Our D got much worse though because we replaced KPJ with Nix.

    Even funnier when you consider that guy was also the only competent shooter on the entire team.

    Somehow he's the reason everyone else was terrible at shooting open shots.

    Like I said, it's either incredibly dumb or it's incredibly dishonest....perhaps both. There's just not another scenario that would lead to takes THIS bad.

    LOL… Says the guy scouring my post history and losing his ****. This clearly matters to you while both you and KPJ mean nothing to me.

    How do you rationalize "got better" ??? Team scored less, assisted less and shot worse while KPJ sat out and didnt win a single game in that span. Defense stunk with whoever was on the court so that is meaningless to the discussion ie.. the continued villainization of KPJ.

    Not going to dig up all the offensive ratings discussion they happened afterward with Sengun stans. Don’t care enough to put in that effort.

    I guess KPJ needs to whisper to the ball before the pass and gracefully get it out to the open shooters and make sure it doesnt hit them too hard or too soft and that its at the perfect angle for a catch and shoot! It could never be that the shooters simply sucked! :D

    Part of me kind of hopes all of these guys gets their wish and a "real" PG is either drafted, traded for or signed so I can just laugh and laugh and laugh next year!

    Ohhhh the "advanced metrics" argument when the team went 3-17 while the problem sat injured!

    Well, in fairness, best case scenario for the team would be to bring in a PG who can distribute AND can shoot the ball so that KPJ can move to the SG spot and then either bring in a SF or PF that can shoot and start Jabari at the other forward spot hoping he fixes his shot.
