Re: Nets are going to persue KCP and likely offer MAX
Damn KCP, why you have to do something so stupid. DUIs are no joke and I gave Big Ben a lot of **** when he had his, and this would be no different. What a dumbass, call a Lyft/Uber.
I'm glad no one was hurt. And this is giving me shades of Greg Monroe getting his DUI and pissing himself. Why is this franchise so silly.

Re: Nets are going to persue KCP and likely offer MAX
is suspicion of DUI the same thing as an actual DUI?
i know anyone can get a DUI but surprised it happened to KCP.

He blew the legal limit, you can still get a DUI technically if you're at or under it. Regardless, he should've called a Lyft.

thanks. sounds like he passed the roadside tests but they took him to the station for an actual breathalyzer and he blew just over the limit.

You're obsessed. Get yourself a life.

Best case scenario is he "gets it" by the time he's 27
Look at Kemba Walker - everyone thought he wouldn't improve after age 23/24...fair to say he did.
So it's not just "Butler did it so anyone can" - there's more than just Butler as an example
Of course there's numerous bad examples too

Re: Nets are going to persue KCP and likely offer MAX
The list of players who played big minutes through age 25 and then took a huge leap towards stardom is really, really short. eg kemba was putting up 18/6 in his second year. Butler is the classic late bloomer. He played limited minutes his first 2 years. The first year he played starter minutes he was 13/5/3. His second year playing big minutes he went to 20/6/4. If you play multiple seasons at 30mpg+, your talents and flaws usually show. And KCP has certainly shown that he has talent and can help a team win. He's a top notch defender and can catch fire from 3. He's also shown some weakness. He's working on his handle, court vision, rebounding, passing - but realistically, he's working to get those up to average. He's not that kind of natural scorer who you would want to make a focal point.

I'm fine with paying KCP as long as we don't have to pay Reggie or Drummond anymore. I think I dislike Drummond more than Reggie now.

at least Jackson tries. in the wrong way, but has fire inside him.

this may sound crazy but if KCP was a Spur, Pop would develop him into Kawhi-lite. Unfortunately SVG is nothing like Pop.

Lowry is a Top-10 PG and he looks very inconsistent his first 3-4 years in the league. Like you said, there are a lot more examples of those type of players who reach their primes lately.

Yikes, the kawhi comparisons are rediculous and unfair. If anything, id say KCP would be a rich mans danny green.

Green plays in Pop's flawless system, so he may seem better to some, but individually KCP > Green right now.
Kawhi is definitely a stretch, but a Kawhi-lite at the sg position is realistic under Pop.
