Maybe it was just me, but it felt really awkward and tense.
It was Harper who asked. It is at the end of the video linked below. Both of his first two answers were more messages about sharing the ball (hint hint) than anything else. It didn't make me uncomfortable. KP has a point of view. He tries to be professional, but his passive aggressive nature gets the best of him (like the 40 foot shot the other day because he hadn't touched the ball for several possessions in a row). It makes me wonder if this is what he's like in public, what is he like behind closed doors?
Not saying it is all his fault. It takes a certain kind of mentality to be the co-star with a heliocentric guy like Luka. As has been discussed many times, Luka often looks past an open KP and makes the more thrilling cross-court pass to a guy in the opposite corner. Is that a flair to entertain on Luka's part or his way of sending a message himself? Is this marriage salvageable? Don't know, but if I'm the kids I'm starting to wonder where dad is going to live and how often I'll get to visit him.
