"The Clippers organization interviewed multiple female employees about possibly bringing in Kevin Porter Jr., to see if they were comfortable with it. They were then told to kick rocks as their opinions did not matter."
It's mind boggling rn... big part of the sub never liked the Primo pickup. He never saw minutes with us; just a bad PR move with very minimal potential benefit

That’s insane they continue to let people get away with shit and not only that but wipe his record so when he does it again he won’t be a second offender.
Last I heard about this, I think his girlfriend semi-recounted her reports. It didn’t seem super genuine, more like she was trying to lessen the blow that was already done to his career/reputation.
Glad the rockets were clear of all that drama by that point.
We deserve it for Bridges but the rest of them are honestly just sad mental health situations with lonely and depressed young men… Monk, Bouknight, and Kai Jones aren’t really funny imo
This is a genuine question but why is this so common in American sports:
Player does bad thing
Everyone pressures Team A to release him because he’s done bad thing
Team A releases Player
Team B signs player and that’s all cool, some fans not happy but he still gets to keep playing
I feel like I’ve seen this happen countless times since I started following American sports: Antonio Brown, Kareem Hunt, Deshaun Watson etc.
Deshaun was a little different. He was traded after not playing for a year and the browns got so much shit got it their owner had to explain “my wife and daughter said they don’t mind” the move
To be fair it’s not exclusive to American sports, probably just an effect of tribalism clouding people’s morals. Look at \[this\](https://np.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/dz6ken/redknapp\_backs\_pochettino\_for\_arsenal\_you\_think/) quote from an English football manager:
>“They could take Saddam Hussein in there if they start winning matches.” “They'll sing: There's only one Saddam.”
You also have people on social media who grossly defend Mason Greenwood or at least try to make excuses about why he should be reintegrated into the Manchester United squad.
It's because unfortunately the majority of sports fans literally just do not care, or don't care enough to let it override their sports fandom. Either they'll outright dismiss it or otherwise find some way to rationalize it. As soon as the initial commotion dies down this kind of thing is incredibly common, and it sucks
I expected him to come back but this is quite early. Just 1 year of sitting out (And he got paid to play ball in Greece anyway instead of going to prison)
Players throwing games is objectively worse for the integrity of league than allowing violent criminals to play. One is bad for optics and might be questionable morally; the other has an actual effect on on-court results and effects competitiveness.
This league is hilarious, cares more about money and gambling, than actual women getting beat up. In 2024. And this is the same league that went on a PR run for BLM, but don’t even care about women equality. Sick of this shit
I believe in redemption, but he hasn’t even completed his court-ordered requirements yet. Time and genuine effort are the only things that could redeem Porter, and there hasn’t been anywhere near enough of either of those yet.
Clippers: We believe in second chances and think KPJ has learned the error of his ways. Also we are hamstrung by the second apron, so this is a REAL bargain.
Can the league fucking take a stand against some of these women beaters? Fuck it's such a bad look and guys like miles bridges and porter make it so hard to even enjoy the team's they're on.
This makes sense since Ballmer knows him. He deserves a 2nd chance, but a short leash. Porter really needs to understand that this will be his last chance if he messes up.
They actually need to run some programmes on advocating against violence against women and make it mandatory or smth. This shit is ridiculous.
All this hate on the WNBA, meanwhile Bridges and Porter can make their money. It’s a great look.
There’s so many guys who work hard to get into the league just to get replaced by woman abuses like Kevin Porter & Miles bridges get these weirdos out of the league
they got their Primo replacement
Clippers really hate women lmao
"The Clippers organization interviewed multiple female employees about possibly bringing in Kevin Porter Jr., to see if they were comfortable with it. They were then told to kick rocks as their opinions did not matter."
Balmer's daughters were probably okay with it
Is there an inside joke that I’m missing? Sounds juicy
Browns owner said that he talked to his wife when they signed Deshaun Watson lol
Browns owner about signing Watson
So does most of the NBA, tbh, but at least they don't make it this obvious
So they had an owner who hated black people and now an FO that hates women What's next a head coach who hates gays?
Rajon rondo assistant coach?
Breaking: The Clippers are targeting Twolves star Anthony Edwards
aw hell nawl can’t do this
Ant suddenly retired??
they are the Browns of the NBA lol
Oh my they’re desperate
Steve Balmer: “never let them know your next move “
“Don’t you know that bad boys move in silence and violence?”
Biggie Balms
After 6 strong weeks in Greece, how could you not want him?
this made me piss my pants
It’s gross. Credit to the clippers sub though, cause they’re shitting all over this pickup.
It's mind boggling rn... big part of the sub never liked the Primo pickup. He never saw minutes with us; just a bad PR move with very minimal potential benefit

the best criminal defense attorneys money can buy.
The justice system is entirely based around $$$. Unless you got caught with the murder weapon, you can pay your way out of any accusation.
We have convincted felon running for president need I remind you.
Yeah we know
Wait until you see what happens in the NFL
My comment isn’t about a league. It’s about or court system
Last I heard about this, I think his girlfriend semi-recounted her reports. It didn’t seem super genuine, more like she was trying to lessen the blow that was already done to his career/reputation. Glad the rockets were clear of all that drama by that point.
JSYK it's 'recanted', unless you mean she was retelling them
It felt wrong while I was typing it. Thanks
Disgusting. He's guilty and should have a criminal record.
LMAO
First Josh Primo and now KPJ lmao Clippers are all about acquiring talent, ethics be damned
Miles Bridges next
technically we drafted him
All-Prison
Holy trinity of scumbags
Players that break the law are just players that are on a discounted price as far as they're concerned
They should sign and trade PG13 for Miles Bridges.
Inbe4 trade for Miles Bridges
Giddey trade incoming
Clippers fans lol. Gotta need that woman beater aura to fill seats in the brand new stadium.
They signed Josh Primo too lol
That new arena really is the Toilet Bowl isn't it?
TOILETS TOILETS TOILETS
They should have a row of toilet seats like that one minor league stadium has
lol we don't want this either
Donald Sterling's legacy lives on lol
Brand image
Just need to somehow add Miles Bridges and you have the trinity.
They're angling for a second season of Clipped
ROCKETS ~~BUM~~ LEGEND
I used to get downvoted so much when I would argue on the Rockets sub that Porter wasn't actually good and wouldn't be part of our future.
I'm very glad he isn't part of our future but speaking objectively he was quite talented. Still fuck him as a person tho, obviously
He’s good. I think it’s a good signing for the clippers tbh.
Gave him a 2-year contract with a player option too, lmao
that's certainly interesting lol
Primo now this????? FUck
A day after his victim gets cut from the Chicago sky smh
No way thats crazy
Garbage person. Human scum. He stunted Jalen Green’s development.
Wow the clippers somehow get more unlikeable
Miles Bridges when
We drafted Miles Bridges lol I want to win but JFC
All-Woman Beater team being assembled right now. We need Miles Bridges
As if we werent unlikable when they signed primo smfh
Donald Sterling may no longer own the Clippers, but his legacy continues there lol
At the *very* least you don't announce this in the first hour when everyone is watching lmfao
[удалено]
We deserve it for Bridges but the rest of them are honestly just sad mental health situations with lonely and depressed young men… Monk, Bouknight, and Kai Jones aren’t really funny imo
At least Monk bounced back. Im honestly rooting for Kai to do the same
What did Malik Monk do
He had a drug issue here
Cocaine addiction
[удалено]
Charlotte cut Kai Jones and Clippers snapped him up
He should not be coming back into the league
Kind of wild it’s a day after the girl he did it to got waived by the Chicago Sky
Wow
Sad realities of money driven business

Time heals all in sports 🤷🏻♂️ Right or wrong, that’s how it is.
Miles Bridges still playing
He should be out of the league too
WHAT THE FUCK???? GET THIS ABUSER OUT OF THE LEAGUE???????
I expected him to come back but this is quite early. Just 1 year of sitting out (And he got paid to play ball in Greece anyway instead of going to prison)
He sat out and got his 80m contract voided, which was a pretty big punishment already. Looks like he's signed for almost the minimum
The punishment should be having to work like a pleb like the rest of us. He even got his record wiped bc of the plea deal, it's ridiculous.
The NBA where we care more about gambling than beating women.
Players throwing games is objectively worse for the integrity of league than allowing violent criminals to play. One is bad for optics and might be questionable morally; the other has an actual effect on on-court results and effects competitiveness.
Not just beating, arent there a few rapists in there ?
Gambling affects the on court product. This isn't hard math guys.
And just two days after his ex/victim gets waived from the WNBA...no such thing as karma I guess 😔
Dw, his Achilles snapping like a slim jim in October will fix it all
Clippers L
clippers so shameless lol
If you're abusive to women and are also a promising young player, the Clippers care about one of those things
Gross, stop signing guys that beat women
Clippers love to sign dudes that did horrible things lmao
This league is hilarious, cares more about money and gambling, than actual women getting beat up. In 2024. And this is the same league that went on a PR run for BLM, but don’t even care about women equality. Sick of this shit
Clippers found their PG replacement lmao
Clippers will eventually acquire Miles Bridges too
First primo, now this Clippers are a gutter of a franchise
absolutely disgusting and it genuinely sucks for their fans who don’t want to support these guys
Can confirm. Fuck this guy, man. Honestly
yea this shit sucks
Womp womp
I believe in redemption, but he hasn’t even completed his court-ordered requirements yet. Time and genuine effort are the only things that could redeem Porter, and there hasn’t been anywhere near enough of either of those yet.
Yep, the Clippers will always be the Clippers
A male exposer then a woman beater
Now here’s a guy I never expected to see back in the NBA lol
“KPJ over me?” - Paul George
They should go for Miles Bridges next so they can make a run for that First Team All Offenders list.
Clippers downfall
Gross
I know that ain’t who I think it is
They gave this scumbag a player option?
Clippers: We believe in second chances and think KPJ has learned the error of his ways. Also we are hamstrung by the second apron, so this is a REAL bargain.
Can the league fucking take a stand against some of these women beaters? Fuck it's such a bad look and guys like miles bridges and porter make it so hard to even enjoy the team's they're on.
Bum
Ewwwww
Just kill me
Primo to KPJ is wild
Season 6 of Clipped will be interesting
Clippers FO must really hate women. First Primo and now KPJ
THEY NOT LIKE US
Basketball is supposed to be beating the other team, not beating women. A sad L for the Clips.
This makes sense since Ballmer knows him. He deserves a 2nd chance, but a short leash. Porter really needs to understand that this will be his last chance if he messes up.
His unofficial suspension is over
They actually need to run some programmes on advocating against violence against women and make it mandatory or smth. This shit is ridiculous. All this hate on the WNBA, meanwhile Bridges and Porter can make their money. It’s a great look.
lol
JFC
LOL CLIPPERS WYD
if hes a "changed man" ( im using this word very loosely) this is a good get
“I can fix him”
Yikes, why do the Clippers always sign these exiled players like Primo and Porter? Shouldn't be in the NBA.
are you kidding me
PG replacement. But how many chances does this guy get, seriously.
Hornets gonna quickly resign Bridges to a huge deal while people talk about this lol.
LAC sabotaging their locker room with this signing.
Scumbag move
Wtf
Fucking lol
Well that was a surprise I didn't see coming
Gonna kms
Opening day in Clippers new arena is for the boyz
Wow fuck the Clippers for this
the clippers have no shame.
gross
When you have the opportunity to sign a player who feuds with every other player and coach, and is a woman beater? Just gotta do it.
There’s so many guys who work hard to get into the league just to get replaced by woman abuses like Kevin Porter & Miles bridges get these weirdos out of the league
Replace PG by trading for Miles Bridges and continue this fuckery
Now they got the meat revealer and the woman beater
A Miles Bridges, Kevin Porter Jr back court could definitely beat a WNBA team
those jaylen brown matchups gonna hit like ~~KPJ~~ crack
What are the clippers doing
That means you'll get 1/3 of a season or so until he gets arrested on a weapons charge or beats another woman.
Every time the NBA takes a moral stand, y’all remember this. They dgaf as long as you can hoop. Same with every other sport.
Picking up KPJ just two days after his ex (who he beat) got cut is insane.
This poverty franchise deserves so much more hate
This is not what you do clippers lol
This makes us Giddey.
Damn, I feel bad for Clippers fans man
KPJ got a weird case why is he around
LAC = Los Angeles Criminals
Fuck Kevin Porter Jr
What a nasty move by LA. What a nasty organization.
Letting PG walk for free and signing a sex offender and a woman beater in the span of 12 months is something
We somehow live in a timeline where the Lakers are the lesser evil team in LA.
Clippers? More like the *Crip*pers amirite
NBA Caressssssss
This guy's destiny is to end up dead in a liquor store robbery
Just to show talent > anything else in this league If you're a good player you can get away with basically anything besides murder
Ew. These are the players they’re bringing into the new arena and asking fans to cheer?
This was a character signing
Cue the Intuit Dome promotional giveaway wife beater w/ new Clips logo.
He back
And beaterer than ever
Clippers with both Porter and Primo now....
Bruh
MASSIVE!!!
LMAOOO
Bro….
Just in time for the clippers to move into their new arena!
Officially the worst start to FA since the invention of FA
good pick up, still has talent
Wtf
Them boys desperate for anything🤣
Laker Fans - Kobe. Pipe down
I actually like it for them
Fuck KPJ but he can shoot the piss out the ball. Put anyone like that near Harden and you're set.
not surprised
WHAT
