    Really could have used him in a game like the Pacers.
    This team literally has the potential to be the greatest frontcourt in NBA history but needs more scoring options. That may seem like hyperbole but the tandem of Lebron with AD is better then the C Bags McHale/Bird duo and what has been expected is the duo of McGee/Howard is also an elite C combo.

    What's missing for this team is what Kuzma can provide: a guy who can just score. Coming into the season I was thinking a third star is necessary but it seems we have enough guys who can play defense and are unselfish/competent enough on offense to carry thru with that. But that could mean nights where these guys just don't have it so you have to have another option. Kuzma with his size and shooting really does shift defenses even if he's off which would have really helped against the Pacers or any other time when no one else seems to be on except one of the big 2.

    Our offense will look better too. Lebron holds the ball to make great reads, but it stops ball movement too much.

    I’d rest everyone and concede the next two games. Try to get healthy and rip off another streak in the new year.

    yeah, but i mean, our guys are actually hurt--lebron is playing with two injuries, as is AD, and kuz hasn't been right all year and just practiced once.

    That's why i agree. Our guys play hurt while NBA bends over backwards to make Kawhi's load management look legit. I would sit AD, Bron and Kuz for the tennants game.

    At least he will finally play. Hope he comes out with some energy. Let’s go Kuz!

    but why even bother? Why not just wait until he can play his normal expected minutes?

    Because you should ease him in anyway. You play 20 and see how he reacts the day after. Can't do that without actually playing and can't do that playing 35.

    He was good tonight - probably the only highlight. He had some nice passes, cuts, and some decent to good defensive possessions...
