Kuzma is 27.6% from 3, 40 percent from the left corner (2 for 5 only), 16.7 from the right corner (1 for 6) and 13 of 47 above the break 27.7%. You would be better off with Vando or Cody Martin than spending 20 plus mil and draft capital on Kuzma. He is a good basketball player, but his offensive fit is not mitigated by his defensive fit. It’s a wash at best between Rui and Kuzma. Rui fits better on one side, Kuz on the other. Personally I like Rui more for this team.
@@Syzygy88 And we still losing games . Can he grab a rebound besides shot 3s?? He already can’t dribble! We not golden state. We two way players. That’s how we won the first time !
@@michaelpetit-frere5637 3 injured bigs are hurting the roster and the rebounds. Before Hayes went out lakers were sitting pretty. Hayes no world beater but that skill set helps the team win and keeps other guys from having to do too much night in night out.
Poole would definitely help!! Shooting, ball handling, scoring, athleticism and runs into a few steals. For some reason people are down on JP likely due to preexisting reputation, but the man can hoop
AD plays center because the front office can’t find a reliable big. AD does NOT play center because LeBron has to play the 4. That’s something some fans have made up to protect the front office. If the front office truly wanted to max out what LeBron and AD can bring to a team, LeBron and AD would be our 2 forwards. Rui isn’t a strong enough rebounder to be a 4. Rui certainly isn’t a rim protector and neither is LeBron.
@ I would take Kuzma if we can bring him and still keep Rui. Or do you think agree with that Rui is better as a 4 so in this case that’s how he should be played.

Trading Rui for Kuz, or getting Kuz and keeping Rui is a trade for the sake of making a trade.
Bring back Kuz. We need more two way players. Plus Rui can’t even dribble. F -that
Rui had the best 3 pt percentage on the team. Rui is not the problem for the lakers

@@michaelpetit-frere5637 also no team on earth gives up quality 2way players. That is the most valuable asset in the nba.
@@Syzygy88 if they play shitty like Kuz and Grant yes they do
Are we sure that Rui can’t play the 3. I say he looks fine in it. Am I wrong?
Rui is literally better than KUZMA fuck positioning we get KUZMA he’s gonna stink it up😭
Useless trade
Bro I’m not trading rui for KUZMA if that’s the trade then I’m keeping rui IF WE TRADING RUI IN A PACKAGE FOR LAVINE THEN LETs GO
The only trade the Lakers need to make is replacing that sorry back court (both Reeves and Dlo).
What about Jordan Pool?? He ah be a good fit for the Lakers I think but what y'all think??
Poole would definitely help!! Shooting, ball handling, scoring, athleticism and runs into a few steals. For some reason people are down on JP likely due to preexisting reputation, but the man can hoop
Maybe Kuz is a better playmaker
Rui is the obvious choice of the 2 options.
Let bron go, get Kuz, keep Rui we're not going anywhere with Bron and AD, but AD Kuz and Rui could be something with an upgrade at one of the guards
You lose lbj/ad you’ll spend a decade in the dumps
Neither. Rui Hachimura needs to go, but Kyle Kuzma isn't a winning piece anymore.
Why, because LBJ said so...he had all the young core shipped out......500 record outside the bubble
AD plays center because the front office can’t find a reliable big. AD does NOT play center because LeBron has to play the 4. That’s something some fans have made up to protect the front office.

Rui isn’t a strong enough rebounder to be a 4. Rui certainly isn’t a rim protector and neither is LeBron.
I say just pull a trade to clear cap space to sign Christian Koloko to a nba contract. He’s good enough
Trade everyone for anyone.
Who said they are trading for Kuz over rui lol like they both can’t coexist, trading rui back Washington makes zero sense. Try again.
Different sides of the same coin
Rui all day
Kuzma took his starting job in DC...he is the better player
@ I would take Kuzma if we can bring him and still keep Rui. Or do you think agree with that Rui is better as a 4 so in this case that’s how he should be played.
he a 4th when lebron is playing the 4
@ he play the 4th position or he’s the fourth best player on the team? What are you trying to say?
Rui, Dlo and Reeves all need to be traded. They all suck defensively
So trade kuz back to the lakers and send rui back to Washington doesn't make sense rui is way better please stop it
Seriously 😒😳😒😳 im so sick 🤢😷🤢 of these 🐂🐂♉ shit talks gonna stop 🛑🛑🚏 opening them up..
