If he just knew his role as like a catch and shoot guy, he’d be better rather than long twos and dumb shots

Not a fan of KCP, that being said, I'm not surprised he's playing so poorly. I read he's basically in jail except for home basketball games. I can't imagine he's working on his game in the jail cell or studying opponents, he's out of sync and not practicing with the team. Why Luke continues to give him so many minutes and leeway given the situation KCP is in baffles me. Bring him off the bench and use him less until his jail sentence is completed and he's able to be around the team and practice.

He doesn’t practice with the team? Typically a sentence like that doesn’t infringe on one’s ability to earn a living. A friend who was in a similar situation was allowed to go to work every day but was at the facility when he wasn’t working.

"Los Angeles Lakers guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope is allowed to practice and even play home games as part of his 25-day jail sentence he's currently serving at a Southern California jail, according to a published report on Thursday."

You are correct

Would be nice if he was on 3 championships in l.a. but seems unlikely

I know it's not a laughing matter seeing our correctional institutions are full of young African Americans who don't deserve to be there. But KCP is a different story. Light sentence. Fancy prison. It's more torture on us watching him play basketball than it is for him being in some white collar, swanky prison. 😂

Exactly. Pretty sure his "cell" has cable TV and a butler.

We need the judge to change this guy’s sentence. He should not be allowed to play in CA either.

Can’t believe KCP turned down 5 years $80 million because he thought he was worth $100 million lol!

What’s his market value now next season?

Rich Paul is an idiot. Turning down 5 years 80 million. He might end up in Europe.

5 for 80?
He made 18 this year.
So he just needs 4 for 62+ to have made a good choice

KCP’s value has dropped. Rich Paul probably wants KCP out and traded.

He's averaging pretty much the same numbers the last 3 years.
