LOL, getting flipped from Wiz to Brooklyn. Hes gonna get verbally abused by KD, Harden, Kyrie frequently. I’m sure he gonna be dat 20 PPG player on Brooklyn.

Well if this proves to be true it was good having you on the Lakeshow, Kuz. I will say it didn’t seem like you’ve been particularly happy since the addition of AD and you were constantly commenting about not knowing what your role was, so I hope you find what you are looking for in your new situation.

Good luck Kuz. I wish you the best the rest of your career. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold.
Best of luck to Kuzma. He didn’t pan out for us the way we all hoped, but he helped us get a ring and did his best to play the roles we needed him too, so I wish him the best.
I'm actually happy for him and will be rooting for him to succeed in the Capital. There's really no scenario where he would have thrived here, and LA was too toxic of a place for him (or any young talent for that matter). Being subjected to trade rumors 24/7 would have impacted his play on the court. I'd be relieved if I were him. Media isn't going to put the spotlight on him anymore.
I can see him having a Brandon Ingram like resurgence in Washington. Maybe not as high as 24 ppg, but 20-22 PPG on good efficiency. I think he'll fit in just fine next to Beal and Hachimura. He needs to get his ass off of social media, though.

Best of luck to the guy. Liked him. Even if he was frustrating at times. All the best. _________________ "We got a new universe coming and he's going to control all our universes. We're going to put our universes together" - Metta World Peace

Thanks for the memories, Kuz. Go kill it in DC. _________________ "It’s like going to the Getty and standing in front of Van Gogh’s Irises while some schmuck next to you critiques individual brush strokes. Just shut up already. The more you talk, the more you embarrass yourself."

I wonder what his role will be with the Nets if he gets flipped over there. does he get more or less touches than he did here? Either way, I'm thankful for the role he played on the Lakers championship run and I think we got rid of him exactly when we had to.
