    Excuse me? I've never heard him complain or be vocal about playing time. He's played his role whether getting spot minutes or sitting on the bench the last 2 years. He's only 21 years old too. Way to early to give up on him or say he's who he's going to be.

    We need a real backup C. Kuz ain’t it, LeBron ain’t it. I don’t know if Mo is it, but probably not if a “contusion” keeps him out since July, dude heals like a 90 year old apparently.

    It's his 3rd year in the NBA. If he doesn't understand defense and rebounding at the NBA level by now, he probably never will.

    It's too bad. He has nice offensive skills, good mobility for his size, and the length to be an effective rim protector.

    I don't understand. Does they not see him suck in practice, so there should be no need to play him? If he doesn't suck in practice (Sasha style), then perhaps a sport psychologist is in order...

    Zubac is, at his worst, 10x the center Kuzma and Beasley are.

    Don't know about 10x but he is a player that needs minutes to find a groove and rhythm. Not so bad at that point. IMO.

    He looked awful.

    A 90 year old with a bone bruise might just die actually.

    Curious now about choosing Zubac over Thomas Bryant.

    I think they need to give zubac as many mins possible with the 2nd unit and 1st unit because playing kuzma at center while the other team still plays a 7 footer center is not gonna work consistently.

    He's in shape to play the way they want. I hope they give him the support and opportunity of enough minutes to work himself into a very useful player against other teams Big Men. He can look better than he has looked on defense. And mainly I don't want to lose the wookie.

    We should try to trade for a center, I would like Willie cauley Stein he's on the market because they have so many centers. I'd offer a first round pick and zu

    lol, can't say I disagree. Between him and The Pope I'm not sure who I'm more upset with. Probably KCP
