So glad we got rid of him. Talk about a bust. He was pure garbage for us.
He had every opportunity here to succeed. He failed.
Don't lie. We never gave him an opportunity to start and be a scoring option. We just asked him to spot up and become a defender.
Vogel failed us time and time.
Why did we never try
SF.LeBron
PF.Kuzma
C.Davis
? idk either
Now looking back, that is weird that and if he did, it wasn't often. Kuz would mainly start, if AD was hurt. It seems Vogel doesn't like to have the best starting 5. He for some reason likes to keep talent on the bench to play against their 2nd unit. I mean that is smart in a sense, but not to the point that our team is suffering or could be better.
Kuz was inconsistent. I do feel an actual offensive scheme would have greatly benefited him. I also think he would fair better with Westbrook because he moves fast. I believe the pace on the wizards is faster, so it is more suitable for his style of play, and the ball doesn't flow through 2 main people.. it flows more freely. He did improve defensively, but he lacks in that category. When he was here, I wanted him traded. Mainly because it seems like his head was else where and not trying to improve. He was wildly inconsistent and he cared more about being on Twitter and switching his hair color. I'm glad he has a fresh start there. I don't watch their games to know how he is.

Happy for Kuz, I was one of his biggest fans when he was a Laker. Have no doubt he will be a solid starting player in Washington. If they stay healthy, they are a playoff team in the East. _________________ LAKERS 2019-2020: NBA World Champions!
Kuzma wasn't consistent thats the problem. He would have big games then disappear for long stretches.
He is consistent in the playoffs.
He was def. consistently underwhelming in the Playoffs no doubt..
Always rooted for him as Laker and will continue to do so from afar but some people are over reacting about losing him to say the least especially at 13mil a season. Same with Caruso to a degree but at least with him I get it.
He has always had great stretches when he caught fire every year he was a Laker as well, is anyone supposed to be surprised by this? His problem was always consistency and then being mediocre at best every year in the Playoffs. He's a solid mid-level role player.. nothing more, nothing less...
Kuzma struggled with Lebron.. I think their games didn't really mesh well _________________ "Now, if life is coffee, then the jobs, money & position in society are the cups.
