    Slightly different but it is Greek and we have a Turkish Star on our hands.

    Those 2 Nations are not friendly.

    I'm from Melbourne Australia and around here there quite different as we're a very multicultural city.

    I get they don't like each other though lol

    Got to start somewhere.....good for him and his agent to get him balling before the year is out.

    Was he ever found guilty of anything? Unfortunate that we still have active pedophiles playing but KPJ is blackballed

    I think he'll need to ball out for two years minimum before he gets a sniff of a chance with an NBA team. The only news that should come out about him is how he's performing on the court. If he has even a hint of any behavior issues forget about it.

    He pled guilty to a misdemeanor assault and harassment charge. Which does not include any pushing, slapping or hitting, those would all be felonies...

    And his record is wiped clean after he does 26 counseling sessions.

    He will have nothing on his record, when it is all over.

    If Miles Bridges can come back, so can KPJ.

    He has all star talent, and with his history you can pick him up cheap....some team will take that risk.

    Jesus. man. Who besides you and Bobby think KPJ has all star talent? Can you not see how much better FVV is than KPJ? Quit nut riding a head case.

    I hope he gets his life together. But I doubt if he ever sees an NBA court. 2 NBA teams, USC, high school. That's just too much. He won't be worth the risk. The Rockets were the only team willing to take that chance previously. If he can keep it together he can make plenty of money overseas.

    Other than his immaturity issues, KPJ was a baller for us just playing out of position. Imagine if he started the year in the Rockets backcourt alongside Van Vleet with Ime's mentorship during Jalen's struggles. Porter Jr was one of the best at catch & shoot three's in the league. Something the Rockets sorley missed this season.

    I wanted to see how this new Rockets culture and coaching would have positively impacted him. Nonetheless hope him the best.

    KPJ did the Rockets a huge favor 6 months ago and forced their hand.

    If his mayhem is tolerated somewhere else, he's their problem child. I think he has one more violent eruption left.

    Next team he doesn’t throw a fit (or something) will be his first one.

    If Miles Bridges can come back, so can KPJ.

    Maybe or perhaps losing 60m on his contract made him grow up!.
