I feel what @AP2.5 is saying

Kuzma has come a long way, specifically defensively....not good but he's solid and can hold up

Offensively he is still a very inconsistent and below average shooter

Career 33% 3pt shooter......shot 33% last season and it's actually gone down the past two seasons

Average scorer who doesn't do anything else good

Dude had a 27 usage rate and 14% PER

How many of yall would really want Kuzma on your team lol.

I would

As a 4th option

#3 or #4 let’s give Kuz his props

I didnt mean 6-9 as scoring option, i meant importance in the rotation.

if you have a team where you got 2 ball dominant wing scorers, you would rather bring Kuzma off the bench. He can be the main bench scorer and take the 4th most amount of shots.

But you wouldnt want him as your 4th most important player though.

Ill take Kuz to come off the bench for me.

Beta ranks him higher.

I said he was a quality player. Meaning he more positive than neutral or negative. Nothing more than that.

wouldnt run my offense through him.

I can’t put a guy who just averaged 21 and 7 and 17 and 8 off the bench if it’s me

I understand the lack of 3pt shooting but I’m thinking with a heat brain so I know it would go up and he would still space the floor regardless

Also if I have two ball dominant wings (which isnt all that common) I wouldn’t be needing Kuz for his services at all

Overrated in what sense?

Some of them have showed some flashes here and there but for the players the Grizz have decided to let go and not replace and the injuries....I feel like there has been a lot of opportunities for guys to slide and take on a bigger role but they either aren't ready for that or just aren't good enough to get consistent minutes

Ziarie Williams was the 10th pick in the draft and they haven't gotten anything out of him in 2 years


Idk when I look at their young prospects I don't see a whole lot there that's really going to help you in the playoffs

I feel you fam. We not totally on the same page.

I see Kuzma as a really good bench piece who can come off the bench and play a combo of the 2, 3, and 4 depending on the rotation.

Not saying Kuzma cant, but I dont want to rely on Kuzma to give me 21.

Fair enough, but for every Zaire Williams there’s a Desmond bane

For every Kennedy chandler, there’s a santi Aldama

I’m not gonna defend the grizzlies though lol
 
I personally think Miami can run it back and be successful. Denver was just a bad matchup and they had some untimely injuries. No clear cut faves in the East rn. They'll be alright.

Depends on the team makeup

Kuz comes off the bench for any top 5 team in either conference

But for the other 20 teams I think he can be a good release valve offensively as the 4th best player

Kuz on the nets is the 2nd best player

Don’t believe for a second we run it back

Not after seeing Jimmy carry for a month straight

It came out in a weird what but that was the sentiment from the organization and they wanted that to be known

I believe it because their owner would do something like that

Didn’t they say that exact thing

He’s not coming back no matter what
