    What? lol.

    I wouldn't trade Kuz for DLo....personality wise Kuz is much more mature and professional.

    Game-wise he is not much better or maybe even better but his trajectory is much more intriguing. This is coming from someone who admires Russell's talent.

    What trajectory? Kuzma is one dimensional. DLo is developing into a complete player; already a better ball-handler, shooter and passer. And he's younger too.

    I’m not sure what we know of player personality, and I’m not sure Kuzma is better than Russell at anything except rebounding.

    when we strike out on FAs this summer, we can use kuzma to dump whichever contractual error we make!

    circle of life.

    I like Kuz and Russell. As long as we're revising things, we should have both right now playing with Fox or Tatum.

    F****** :This: There was a window of opportunity there rather than being completely Bent Over and "you know whated" later at the trade deadline or at the end of the season PLUS they brought back Brook Lopez who was relatively great for us last year and Big enough to not get punked by other Big centers and could shoot the 3 ball. Too bad they stoooopidly let him go this off season.
