i kind of resent the title calling this "whining". laker fans have high expectations. we have always been proud of our "we don't hang conference championship banners" attitude, and calling this whining is opposite that. We are not impressed by mvps, all stars, records, awards....we care about rings. |

A Laker shined
Kuzma is not going to use that money on cocaine or drugs
I will bet he is sending it to his bank and possibly some of it will be given out via charity |

Yep, leave it to LG to hate on our own when he accomplishes something. If we had traded him away he’d be the next Jordan according to most people here after that performance. Pathetic. |

Optimist: Glad to see Kuz win MVP. Showed aggression/Mamba mentality
Pessimist: Would like to have seen Kuz win with more efficient numbers. You could argue he won MVP by being the biggest chucker in a chuckfest. |

You guys are analyzing this stuff like it was a real game and I don't understand why. It was an exhibition game. None of those guys are out there worried about shot selection, efficiency, or any of the typical stuff they’d prioritize in a real game. Like, did you look up his analytics in the game too? _________________ “Christ did not die to forgive sinners who go on treasuring anything above seeing and savoring God.

This can't be real Laker fans, bagging on a Laker on All star weekend. Probably Clippers or even Celtic posers here whining because their order of Brie didn't come in from Smart and Final. |

Sounds like a guy who's just looks to get paid rather than maximize his craft. |
Yup, you should always look to maximize your craft in an All Star game. |

Exhibit A of someone who still can't get over his Kobe hating even after the guy retired 3 years ago. |
That looked like a compliment |

35 is the highest since 31? That makes no sense. 35 is higher than 31 |

That's a good point. Kuzma should have won a ring at that All Star game. Maybe LeBron can bring home a ring for us today. Hope so! |
