I’ve seen enough of fox and domas to see they can play well together. Rest fox’s hand and let domas be at home with his baby.
Did you just hit Sabonis with the Guile sendoff?

Nah, by most accounts that have been purposely vague, he appears to actually have some stuff going on in his personal life.

so you don't think he's played his last game in a Kings uniform?

He probably has but that’s probably unrelated to his actual personal issues.

I don’t think it’s a forgone conclusion Holmes will be traded in the off-season. They aren’t going to get a wing for him and they aren’t going to give him away for peanuts.
Holmes has been accused by his ex-wife of abusing their child. I will not link to the Bee article as it contains editorial content that as a dad who dealt with a custody situation I feel is inappropriate. I do think it's a very serious allegation and I hope it is untrue for everyone's sake.

"I’m not convicting Richaun Holmes ahead of his court date. It does, however, appear that the Kings were focused on covering up a serious situation involving allegations of domestic violence by one of their players."
I mean, what the hell were they supposed to do? Put out a press release condemning him before the whole situation even goes to court?

I went through a custody evaluation and then went through a false DHS report and was cleared. I don't have a lot of faith in these systems to be honest, but I believe they should be allowed to run their course. An article that reports on it is fine but to then have it turn into an "I believe the mom" and pile on with a bunch of statistics is unacceptable.

Wow, that article was garbage.
I hope the allegations are false.
Regardless, garbage article.

Just read it. Absolutely horrible. "I'm not convicting Richaun Holmes ahead of his court date. It does, however appear that the Kings were focused on covering up a serious situation involving allegations of domestic violence by one of their players." Maybe because allegations in today's age are more or less convictions in the eyes of the public? And Holmes name should not be tarnished if these allegations are untrue?
And then she goes on to right a hit piece that Holmes did it. Absolute nonsense to have breaking news within an opinion piece.
That said, we have no idea what's true or not. That's what the courts are here to determine.
I can only say, I hope for the child's sake, that it is untrue.
The Kings were covering it up by not proactively telling the public that Holmes was accused of domestic violence? What sort of twisted logic is that?
The vast majority of us (I would hope all of us) have zero tolerance for child abusers and wife beaters and think they should be punished to the full extent of the law, but when did the concept of due process go out the window entirely?

Or, even better, your employer actively publicizing your private case. Lol
It's terrible since my MLS club very actively covered up multiple sexual abuse and DV situations and I have stopped following the team and this is very clearly something much different happening here.

About 8 years ago I was subletting a satellite office in a building with some attorneys, one of the guys was a divorce attorney. He walks into my office and says you are on my witness list for an upcoming case. I said "no I'm not" He looked confused, "I said you will have to subpoena me." that was before finding out who listed me, once I found out I was even more like "HELL NO" im not getting in the middle of their crap.
Poor kids is all I have to say.
