JC is more than okay with coming off the bench and it suits him well
Kooz needs to start
PERIOD

Kuzma continues to have a ridiculously efficient scoring year for a rookie...
The only non-center rookie to score 16+ with 55+ eFG% and 57+ TS% in the modern (post ‘80) era...
Will the efficiency hold...?

But can he bring historic intangibles that Nance does?

| Since KCP is the real shooter from outside from the starting group, it’s time to put back Kuz to starting lineup to open up the floor. Lopez is not getting it done as the other player shooting from deep and Ingram is just timid right now to shoot from outside. |

The problem with people is that... they don't like admitting they were wrong. As soon as Luke starts Kuz he would essentially be admitting that he has been playing the wrong lineup. The thing is, we would forget about this quickly and just enjoy watching Kuz start.
But people always think that others are thinking about them too much and that they're watching his every move. This is why Luke is not starting Kuz. He doesn't want to admit he was wrong. Ironically, the longer he keeps Kuz on the bench the stronger the scrutiny becomes.
Humans are (bleep) stupid. |

What is the point of using eFG% and TS%? Seems kind of arbitrary. |

Luke subscribes to the notion from 40 Year Old Virgin that you don't put The KOOZ on a pedestal.

Folks I have a good feeling he will be benched once Lopez is back, if not sooner, he said he was experimenting with lineups

Yes, thanks epak. Talk to PG13 while you're at it. He's not gonna be happy in OKC and he knows it.
Once you slap Luke out of his delirium and he starts Kyle, we can change this thread to: "Vote Kuzma for all-star game!" |

The best player on the team should start period. End of discussion. |

I agree.
I think Luke likes pairing Lopez and Nance together and Kuzma with Bogut. Haven't looked at the net rating pairings. But I hope Luke knows what he is doing.

He is definitely the best scorer on our team. Hands down. I'm on the fence in terms of him being our best player. He might be, just not sure.

Ball and Randle are starting. They’re our first and second best players. |
