    You've been telling everyone for the last year that he already HAD gotten it together, and that all those incidents reported beginning with his USC days were just exaggerated or invented by the media.

    Sorry, DD, this is one stand you can't just immediately abandon and pretend like you were on the other side all along. Your account is littered with receipts on how nobody knows the true KPJ except you.

    It could be a case of mutual violence again. Very easily she could have been the one that hit first. Doesn't mean that he didn't ruin his career still by hitting back if that turns out to be the case.

    I'm not referring to this incident lol. I'm referring to an incident that happened when he was on the Cavs I think.

    If the initial reporting for this event is true, this is a open and shut case of KPJ being a piece of ****.

    Yes...I know. I am sure more details about what happened will be known at some time.

    All the guy had to do to make $70-80 million was to not be in the 1% of the worst people in the world, and somehow I'm not all that surprised that he failed.

    The second chances run out eventually even for the rich and talented.

    He's done done

    Was going for him to turn it around too. Oh well, I hated watching him play.

    On a more serious note, this is bigger than basketball and I hope the victim recovers in every way possible. Horrible

    Weird to see people normalizing the concept of fist fights with your GF or wife, as if it even matters who hits first. "Maybe she hit him first and he was defending himself." Whatever.

    Emotionally mature people don't get into fist fights, plain and simple. There are other ways of solving arguments.

    There's no way he's on the roster next year. More minutes for Amen at PG

    This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. We knew Kevin was a ticking time bomb ever since Cleveland basically gave him to us via trade.

    Guys,

    This is not about "I told you so" or "gloating" because KPJ messed up, this is about a person who obviously has mental problems and need help.

    Even if you didn't like him, this is a person who is going to lose his source of income, who is going to lose his girlfriend/fiancee, as well as some close friends. So, who knows where he might end up.

    Nevermind I misread your first post.

    But the initial reporting implies it was KPJ that started the violence. The current reporting suggest that she locked the door on him in the hotel over a dispute of him arriving late from partying and he got the hotel security to unlock it and then he started assaulting her out of anger of locking him out.

    That's the initial reporting.

    I mean the person everyone should feel the most sorry for is the actual victim here but I agree that doesn't mean removing all empathy for KPJ. This is a tragedy in every sense.

    He’ll get jail time and the death of his career now.
