    I can’t even really state how much of a turnaround he’s had. 8-10 games into the season I wanted him traded, he looked so bad it was almost like he forgot how to play basketball. But then pretty much from then on he snapped out of it and turned it around, remarkable. And even when he went through a few down games in these playoffs, you still felt like he was going to turn it around again pretty quick, he’s been so reliable, on offense AND defense, he’s become a legitimate defender. So happy for this dude, he laid the groundwork for LeBron, he stuck around and it paid off.

    This guy played the best basketball of his life in the NBA finals and the entire post season. Congrats to him! So many of us doubted him for years and he proved us wrong with a killer performance. He was so aggressive today on both ends. Unreal

    Over the last 3+ years we focused so much on Lonzo, BI, Kuz, we compleltely forgot how well our coaching staff has developed him. He's not an all star but a reliable and valuable role player. He played his role to a T this post season. Only 27 years old! Still some good years left in him

    KCP was huge. Often times he was our 3rd guy. After calling for his head foe awhile, he really turned a corner and found a role he could thrive in. Then picked it up even more in the playoffs on both sides of that ball and the was huge for us since we were without AB. Big time 17 tonight.

    From one of my least favorite guys on the team to Laker playoff legend. Can’t say enough about how much he came through for us in this run.

    With this playoff showing and his great play tonight, he earned every last contract he's had from the beginning of his Laker tenure. Seems likely he's going to make coin elsewhere next season, not sure if the Lakers will want to pay him.

    I'd like to have him back, but someone will dangle the money and the Lakers likely won't match.

    NBA suitors will be lining up to kiss the Pope's (now championship) ring.

    Would dearly love for us to keep him.

    Can everybody hope for a Clutch rebate for a Playoff Pope repeat????

    I wouldn't be surprised to see him stay for a shot at a back to back. With his raise he'll probably be around 9M for the season.

    Awesome playoffs KCP! But man with a calibrated display watching the games last couple years I thought we had pretty much gotten past the canary yellow of Nike's first attempt (along with their innovative tear away jerseys :clap: ). But many photographs sure seem to show otherwise. :speechless: I think this guy's auto white balance was off and he didn't bother to correct.
