On the lineup side, the lineup he's played most in is this one:

Lebron
D39
Rondo
Alex
Kuz

That lineup has played 46 mins in 9 games and has a def rating of 89.7. DANG! 89.7! That's crazy. Who would have thought that a lineup that has Kuz, Rondo and Lebron would have a def rating of 89.7.




Really feel like he has the potential to be an x-factor come playoffs

Great vs everyone minus the Clippers. I feel this line up can suffocate Portland tonight. I think the Clippers with Fun Guy, Rated G, and LouDog will give us a lot of problems. We need some wing defenders.

That lineup has played 2 mins in 4 games.
Doesn't mean much in that time span, but it had a def rating of 125.0.
And an off rating of 75.0. Rough 2 minutes

BTW, Is Avery back to play against the Blaze pizzas?

He'll be re-evaluated after this road trip. To me that sounds like a few more games yet. I'll just be happy if he returns this month

Bradley on Lou
Caruso on Beverly
Lebron on George
AD on Kawahi
Howard on zubac or Montez

Isn’t lebron a good defender now?

I'm really starting to dislike Kuzma.

He has shown 0 improvement on his game.


Afraid of contact and always lost on defense.


everytime he is out there i'm not very confident.

I just want him to do more of the dirty work, he is like a princess out there.

He is ok tonight, improving. If he gets his confidence back on the drives, we would be golden

I want better defense, don't care about the scoring since AD/Lebron can just easily make it up

Decent defense, a cool 15 points including 9 in the 4th and one nice "Holy hell, WTF was that" play

… I feel like he's on the verge of really breaking out

Kuz has played two decent games in-a-row. He's starting to loosen up; he hustled on defense and gave us points double digit scoring off the bench.

If he had decent finishing around the rim (it will come) this would have been a 20 point game on limited touches.

He has the potential to be so valuable for us

I'm fine with sacrificing offensive numbers for better defensive output.

Been on Kuz train all season but he still looks awkward to me. He’ll figure it out though.
