Before Kuzma a few weeks ago:
The Lakers are not at their full potential without Kuzma
Haywood facts
Actually dont think Kuzma has hit his groove. Looking for alot of improvement still small increments.
The media will do and say anything to protect their lord and savior lebron james
Now we need to trade kuz
...and then he comes back and didn't bring anything to the table. He gets hot, but can't maintain any level of consistency on either side of the ball.
Already trying to tear them apart smh. The media is trash
Maniac Envious Devils In Action= MEDIA
🔥
No one is trying. Kuzma was supposed to be the 3rd star of the team and he’s played like a 2nd year role player at best he’s been bad
@ciga daze before or after the injuries you must be not watching hes playing with an eye issue and ankle
@ciga daze he does not suck hes not getting traded at all I never turned my back on Kuz I've been upset but never switched up you gonna regret what you saying as the season goes on
y’all talking about AD being injury prone when paul george and the klaw are both injured more than him
Not true at all I’m from New Orleans AD played 1 full season the hole time on the Pels after that 2 seasons with 60+. But Paul does get hurt I say as much as AD got hurt here
992ras completely agree with you, i meant that they both get hurt just as much as him. the klaw literally sat out a season because he had problems with his thigh, and has always been very cautious about playing if he isn’t 100 percent. paul george also just barely came off of a double shoulder injury, and hasn’t been able to stay healthy in the post season the past few years
Both things can be true, all three are injury prone, the " but what about the clippers" argument doesn't help the Lakers lol
nghi lam just like the “what about the lakers” argument doesn’t help the clippers but that’s the narrative that the media is pushing. they act like the lakers are the only team that can get injured
@@hunternelson4320 it just seems like that because the Lakers have a big fan base and will obviously get more media attention. Even if the clippers didn't exist, ad is still injury prone
They lose 1 of the last 11 and they come up with this. Smh.
Rudy Melendrez more like they face 1 good teams out of last 11 games
Ka Kjj
Bro fk off. Your star players get carried from a dude on the bench
Ka Kjj spurs beat the clippers foh teams shoot lights out against the lakers
big mike Abejide 3-3 against teams with a positive record
That's the media's job to blow things out of proportion, it's all for TV ratings plus views on yt
Lakers lose a game
ESPN: SHOULD THEY TRADE KUZMA?!?!
Its coming soon
they need to
If they want 2 win trade for beal
they should trade Green and Kuzma for Lavine ....
@@Dino-pk5hc No way. Green can shoot and plays defense. This is not 2k. You're supposed to play D in order to win in the playoffs
The lakers lose 1 game
Espn: Should the lakers trade the whole team except Lebron ?
Nah, lakers should just trade lbj lol
metalsadman they wouldn’t really win without him
Yall can keep dreaming and hating while Bronn get high way up there
metalsadman you stupid?
metalsadman what you smoking?? Lolol
Lakers: 17-3
Espn: making an issue to question lakers chemistry
So is your mom.
@ciga daze how tf do people like you exist?
Mad? You’re confused. The one whose’s mad is you, calling Kuzma trash.
@ciga daze trash? How
ciga daze Kuzma has been in a slump but he’s been clutch with his late game 3’s. He is far from trash
Honestly I hope everyone sees how negativity sells to the public . They lost 1 game out of the 10 games and they bring this bull topic up.
Or maybe...
Just maybe, it's a legit question. Kuzma has sucked wind, and after regressing last year, took another step back.
It's a fair question to ask. Is it Kuzma; is it the system; or is it that he can't play next to Lebron?
@@djjeremiahj I think it's all the above. He looks lost when he is out there. It's like he lost his confidence.
It’s clearly the Kardashian kurse.
@@Grapehunter420 wait what I didn't even know they were dating. He should learn from ben Simmons lol.
@Destiny 100 lol I got them confused, don’t know why. They don’t even look alike. Lol
Are u kidding me!!! One loss and the Lakers have all the trouble in the world??? Bruh so much hate for the Lakers
Ikr when the clippers lose it dont even make headlines
On god
Keep in mind that the bucks have the same record as LA with one superstar. Lakers are playing with fire loosing to these playoff teams.
It’s just entertainment. When there’s nothing to talk about they make up something to talk about
Addaren Wilson keep in mind that giannis is the only superstar in the east Joel Embiid ain’t there yet
Who’s here after the lakers beat all the teams in their “upcoming tough schedule”
✋🏿
Facts lol

Yup💯

Brandon Bourgault facts
It's a legit topic if kuzma is the third option. Celtics in 4
This all just fake watch when kuz get those big games smh the lakers gonna have a game when he gets most touches
@@Idontknowyet28 what?
@@Idontknowyet28 🗿 nah fam
Lol what type a question is that? Y’all watched the games? Kuz balling and hitting big threes playing with Davis and Lebron. Just because they had one bad game and lost to the Mavs all of the sudden the world is falling on the Lakers.. stop it! The Clippers lost to the Pelicans?... does that mean they’re terrible? No!
BruceAeroustile kuz has had some decent stretches but he has not been “balling” the majority of the time
Ciaran T because he was hurt all training camp and couldn't play with them yet, but once they get chemistry, it's over
@@ciarant299 but we know what he can do, he just needs to do it
Didn't you listen? He had five games with five or less points. And a few games of 10pts. He's playing horrible. This ain't about the clips. Stop deflecting
Balling? What games you been watching? Definitely a reach. He has been sub par at best.
I love how he sounds concerned when he says they’re 12-2 like that’s not a great record
I knew the moment AD arrived, Kuz would be demoted to the bench. They play the same position. LeBron will go back being a point forward. Hard to break habits. AD refuses to be center. So Kuz got demoted.
they was better off keeping ingram instead
❄️Kristmaz808 Kuzma ain’t no shooter. A shooter can’t mentor a non shooter. Kuz is really good at playing off the ball, because he has terrible shot selection when it comes to creating his own shot. He’s also really good at slashing and getting to the basket.
Shy ingram would be having the same issue if he played on the lakers too it’s just what happens when you get less minutes kuz is just gonna have to adjust🤷🏾♂️
TBH Ingram would do worst if he was here.. Look at last year when James arrive..
Now
Imagine with 2 superstar...
Kuzma doing good.. Give him time..
Don't flame him like how u guys do KCP in the beginning..
@@Kristmaz808 ...Right now, Danny Green is in no position to mentor anybody.. His shooting stinks lately.. a lot of 1- fors in the box score.
Other than consistency on offence and defence, I don't see the problem. Kuzma will figure it out soon, don't see him as the type to hide. On a side note Bradley is a big miss.
It's his defense.He still does that jumping around instead of moving his feet.
His defense is so bad. He cant even stay in front of bigger slower people. Luke walton once said he plays defense like happy feet the penguin
Kuz just responded to critics of his defense with 4 steals and 3 blocks against the Jazz
I been saying we should of kept Brandon Ingram and shipped off Kuzma to the Pelicans...the dude is just so inconsistent
So is Ingram what you smoking. BI doesn't fit with Lebum and AD. Kuzma does and besides BI was high af all the time. Unfortunately for us we didn't Kuz would turn into a metrosexual diva who gets his hair did everyday now. Instead of focusing on balling.
@@LazyCrazyGuy its obvious kuz doesnt fit either . he lost out there
Edwin Hernandez Ingram is actually very consistent. Check the stats
"Just wait when Kyle Kuzma comes back and their bench is deep"
Oh wait ,they don't need kuzma to beat nuggets a number two in the west ,
Kuzma hasn't played basketball in months. Calm down
Not hatin on Kuzma or Lakers. Just the flip flop narrative.
@ciga daze facts
@@jayramirez4725 True true. These "analysts" are beyond inconsistent with their takes.
Get Kuzma away from the 4-spot, that is for Rim Protectors.
Lol
DeAndre Page Kuzma tall for nothing lol
@@BrownPatriot316 Tall don't make you a Rim Protector. 😀😀😀
Kuzma is a FINESSE PLAYER, go to the 3-spot
Most 4s in the modern NBA are not rim protectors
Janamejaya Dharmapuri at least protect the paint 😂
Kuzma needs to be incorporated back into the starting line up. I know KCP has been playing decent the last few games but Kuz is the future and the Lakers need him to be a serious contributor in the playoffs. They should give him the opportunity and I have a feeling his numbers and play will improve.
He needs to have that Alex Caruso Hustle and Motivation 🏁🏁🏁
Kuzma is fine. Just needs to play a little more aggressive on both sides of the court. Stay moving without the ball, attack the rim he’s got that control and speed to slash to the rim. Play physical defense and get more out of those minutes on the court. McGhee style.
He didn't do any of that, that's the problem. Just get rid of him, it hurts my eye to watch him play!
I feel like Kuzma and KCP got til the trade deadline to show they can compete for a championship.
Oh boy you really don't know basketball and Lakers contracts 😒
KCP got a no trade clause, he ain't going anywhere even though we all want him gone. Kuzma has 5 more games in my book to get it together which I do think he will.
KCP is no problem, he's playing well and help our team. Kuz is the real issue!
@@LazyCrazyGuy 5 more games ?
They need to trade Kuzma for a scoring point guard
and they don't talk about how kuz won few games with his shooting while he's out of shape and playing 22min per game. of course he's going to have trouble with less min and playing as 3rd to 5th option from 2nd option with 36min a game.
They say this about kuz instead of KCP 🤦🏽♂️
Isaiah kcp is shooting 42% from 3pt. The kcp jokes are dead
because he's the 3rd option.
KCP been hot and always brings it defensively. Kcp slander was over a few weeks ago
This is a prime example of how their out of topics...
I like the Jefferson, Windy duo. They're some of my top analysts on the jump. Both entertaining and knowledgeable
Rondo has been pleasant surprise shooting the ball, think he comprises the defence of the team though when he's on the floor (especially when he and Kuzma are out there lol). While Rondo was injured Bradley and Caruso usually delivered on the defensive end with the extra minutes available but still offered enough offense to help win games. Hopefully when Bradley is back we find a good balance with the guard spots.
If Kuzma doesnt become what everybody wants him to become.. Trade him
for who?
@@austinoldfield5246 Chris Dunn Zack Lavine Kelly Oubre jr. Jason Tatum just to name a few
@@StylezYung the only player u named i would take over kuzma is Tatum
@@austinoldfield5246 good thing ur not a gm
@@StylezYung Iavine can ball but he is fragile. u are out ur ur god dam mind if u think anyone besides Tatum or Lavine.
I am not a lakers fan but they had one loss.
kuz defence sucks that is why he isn't playing many minutes he is not a good defender
OLAY! Defense
This is very true. Vogel only plays people who play defense and when kuzma shot is cold theres no reason for him to be out there cus he cant stay in front of no one . Teams actually target him if you notice. Hes not a playmaker either so literally when he ain't hitting shots theres nothing he offers
If u want to have extra negativity in ur life, watch espn.
I don't get it
Ryan Garcia pessimism
Must be a slow day in the office
Kuz isn’t shining rn but there will definitely be a time we will need him.
He missed all offseason and was injured in the beginning he just needs to find his rhythm and his fit on his own
Agreed...need to give it time. GSW did just fine with Curry/Thompson/Durant....but it didn't happen right away. If Kuzma is still sputtering close to the playoffs, THEN say something.
Yes! He haven’t shown on the court that he becomed a more than average NBA player at this point! The only thing that he’s done is pushed Lebron in the back to play defense last season but he should push himself...every body is making excuses for Kuzma
Time to give it up people, The Lakers are no joke.They are beating all this so call good teams on the road.
This has nothing to do with the topic at hand but JR deserves a roster spot with someone
Kuzma's offense isn't the problem...
His defense is the problem..
Both are the problem!
Still early in season. ESPN overblowing the Kuzma story. Must be slow news cycle
Kuzma should be at the 3, SF.
Starting lineup should be
Lebron PG
Green SG
Kuz SF
Davis PF
McGhee C or Howard...both on point.
who is starting atm
Kcp
So who u bring off the bench for scoring?
JED HEAD CINEMA TV KCP, AC, Howard, Rondo?
thank you for watching espn on youtube.....
He just isn't that good. I've never seen him get a stop this entire season. His defense is non existent. He's a sub par 3rd scoring option that at best can get hot from time to time. I want my volume shooters to always be on, not show a flicker of light. They should look to move him.
Joshua Woodard you just contradicted yourself a volume shooter is somebody who can get hot quick but can go cold also
@@millionaire313scott6 ...No he didn't contradict himself... You just redefined "volume shooter" to fit YOUR point. In the strictest sense of the word, a volume shooter is one who puts up a lot of shots in a game, i.e. Harden, Kobe, Bernard King, Rick Barry.... in other words, a gunner. It doesn't necessarily identify you as a high scorer..only If you're a good shooter, yes. By your assessment, you may be trying to acknowledged him as a "streak shooter", which is altogether a different animal. Lots of players, and almost any NBAer, can be a streak shooter.. all one has to do is get hot for a stretch. The difference between a streak shooter and a pure shooter (KD, Klay, Steph, Harden, maybe Booker) is consistency and stroke...
This is very accurate. He cant stay in front of anyone and has always been a guy that needs a lot of shots unless he comes out once in a while hot from the start. I remember last year he had that 40 pt game and than went 6 for 58 over a 6 game stretch lol
I think .. if Kuzma played the center in certain lineups more often (since AD refuses to do so) would maybe help with their spacing issues
Stephen Lane he’s not a rim protector at all wouldn’t work defensively
Nooooo . They did that last year and he got bullied immediately because of his defense
"...that's why they went 12-2, and then they slipped"
*The graf showing 5-1*
Logic? Why? He's on tv right
Kuzma just need to step up his game,if they are going to win a chip they need another offensive weapon, kuzma is inconsistent this yr
Tbh Kuzma can’t be trusted.....slow on defense his hot streaks come every three games
Ingram>Kuzma.
I agree. It's hard to get a rythm with less minutes but he has to be engaged on defense to get more minutes.
Long season brother. He'll hit his stride.
You guys call yourself laker fans? Smh the disgrace... Jesus..
Bro pay attention to the fact that he hasn’t had ANY consistency around hi. In the last 3 years! He killed his first 2 seasons and they still haven’t developed a solid role for him! He is an alpha that now has to play like a Beta for Lebron 🤷🏾♂️
paging ESPN JR is fit to your show as regular host analyst..Interesting to watch and smart😍
These are the best comments I've ever seen
Lakers should of talked The pelicans into taking Kuzma instead of Ingram Ingram been balling
Yes because BI was playing so well with Lebron. 🙄
I'm sure they tried. At one point, magic offered both. Pelicans probably didn't even want kuzma lol
@@jamesblunt1915 The second half of last season he _was_ playing well with LeBron.
@@jamalamirihamed442 Yup plus besides Lebron we don't have a ball handler that can go get his own buckets. Better playing d and better 3 as well as shooting percentage reb basically everything
@@asnmdnss i don't think so cuz Pelinka was proud the Lakers kept Kuz which most likely means they fought to keep him.
KUZma is one of my favorite players 💯 He’s gonna be a Champion one DAy ❕
👇👇
👍
Lol
well i cant wait for chronicles 114 to get into this
Nah fatique kkuz is like in his early 20s he jus needs to lands his shots
I just think kuz needs to step up...its not that he isn't good he's just not doing what people know he can do and why the lakers kept him right now
kuz just needs to get back in form
Why cant people see that.??
I'm not worried about Kuzma's offense, it's his defense I'd like to see pick up. He's hustling but seems a step slow in reacting a lot. The coach needs to help him with his positioning, footwork and anticipation and he can be tough on defense
The problem isn't Kuzma it's that their depth is a lot better than anyone projected. The minutes and shots we all assumed would automatically go to him aren't there. Him being injured to start the season and being in and out of the lineup with injuries hasn't helped with building rhythm and chemistry in his new role. He'll adjust as the season progresses the media is just miserable and looking to create drama that doesn't exist with this team. Just appreciate what you're seeing man Lakers are special right now
From what I've seen so far Malone is correct, the Lakers are still a good distance away from playing at their best the one that really is going to be the biggest Difference Maker for them this year, and was not expected to be there is Dwight Howard. Rondo also is starting to look very good and when kuzma finally gets into gear this team could really be special
He needs to be an instant scorer. Not really like a volume shooter, more like a high percentage scorer.
Major L. Kuz is definitely still looking for his identity on this team but he has been a main key in some clutch 4th quarter stretches.
He's not a questionable fit, he's just playing AWFUL right now, he was hyped up as the "3rd scorer" over the summer after working with Lethal Shooter and how LeBron's friend who tweets a lot called him a walking 20-30, he's not a bad fit Kuz has just been awful overall, but has had moments where we needed him.
Kyle Kuzma needs to forget about the stats sheet and play for the team to get an open shot and if he doesn't he might find himself out of the rotation. I would like to see him pass the ball more often than he drives to the basket. When he drives he should pace his move on a rhythm instead of playing at full speed so that he can keep his options open at all time.
Kuzma still finding his rhythm haters
Lake show 💯💯💪🏿💪🏿
We need the 6 8 true sg style of kuz
This was on tv while I was getting my haircut
Kuzma looks like Patrick Mahomes in the thumbnail 😂
You keep KUZ.. he’s going to be that player that has that game when you need him to have that game. Yo also, have to remember that he’s been injured and he isn’t starting. He really hasn’t found a rhythm because of missing the beginning of the season and with the addition of AD. He just needs to find the flow of things and he’ll be alright.
they really gonna make kyle kuzma the scapegoat
Not a question of fitting in with the big two....his body language is saying he don't fit ...like he dont want to be there 👀🏀✌🏿
Kuzma will be a solid starter for some team once he leaves or gets trade away from LA. Look at Ingram he is ballin out with the Pelcians.
yea but look at lonzo . lol ,,, i keep saying ,, another rubio. lol
@@xcelljy don't disrespect Rubio like that
Ingram is also way better than kuzma . Always was the casuals just fot obsessed with the fact kuzma could shoot 3s. Ingram was the better all around player since day 1
@@Power35. tell em lol . For anyone who watches the pelicans Ingram is by a landslide their best player right now . I've watched each and every game of theirs this year and hes been unguardable literally toying with defenders at times. Only bad shooting game hes had was against the lakers and he still got to the line like 14 times and had 23 and 10
@@joshromero-burgan9860 I never said Kuzma has ever been or will be as good as Ingram. Ingram could possibly be an all star down the line, Kuzma is a rotation player on a championship team or decent starter for some mid table or lower team. Plus Kuzma is 24, Ingram is 22, and Ingram got him on that too. I knew as soon it was Lebrons team Kuzma was bound to slow down. Kuzma isnt a good defender, and slightly below average 3 point shooter, not the ideal fit to play along Lebron.
Hes a solid bench player with 2 mil dollar contract. Its fine.
And so it begins😂😂
Rachel asks a question then immediately tries to cut you off lol
Its all about match ups not if he fits. It depends on who kuz guarding
Somebody did Kuzma so dirty in the the thumbnail
Kuzma is a walking bucket he can get you 20 even 30 just needs to be more consistent that's all
I think it's more of a question concerning Davis. Last season Kuzma fit very well with Lebron (primary beneficiary of Lebron's assist and his game took a nose dive when Lebron got hurt). But last year Kuzma was playing a lot of 4 but with A.D. insistence on that spot (Howard and Javal 5) it makes Kuz play more 3 and he's not as much of a mismatch at that position plus he has less room to operate with L.A.'s big lineups (reduced space to cut a strength noticeably absent this year compared to last).
Last year they said he was a perfect now they saying he's not lol
Yrn TrentonTM last year there was no AD, Green, and Howard ...
Hes overrated af though...BI has a higher ceiling, the only reason he stayed was because he dont need that many touches. But they done messed up including BI instead of KK in the trade.
@@1987benhur Ingram gets most of his buckets due to ISO which didnt fit the Lakers system and is the reason he's breaking out w/ the pelicans.
No one ever said Kuz would end up being better than BI, he just fits in better and can play off the ball.
He's a bit overrated but I still think he'll end up being a really good player that will make 1 or 2 all star teams in the future.
Plus BI is younger so of course he would have a higher ceiling.
@@1987benhur He didnt stay because the Pels wanted BI the most and thats coming from the GM.
@@trenton3594 Thats not even true. BI can spot up shoot too and better than Kus actually. Also he can create for himself and others. He has handles and can drive and finish, he is a playmaker and can play defense. Has midrange and 3pt range. BI is just what the Lakers are missing and they know it. Kus is a inconsistent shooter and has nothing else to offer when he is not shooting good which is too often.
Seriously tho when your sitting on the bench more it takes longer for guys like him to catch a rhythm.he has to figure out how to come in to a game ready to go
Kuz needs more minutes, vogel needs to push plays through him when ad & bron are out, His potential is bigger than anybody else in the team besides Ad & Bron, Coach needs to hive him full confidence
If kuzma get traded it will break his spirit.
His career will be over
Still richer than you.
@@edwinfcapidos So true, they are all millionaire just to shoot the ball!
But the Clippers lost to the Pelicans G LEAGUE team no one said NOTHIN! LOL HAHAHAHAHA
Cam Taylor
Facts and also one of their superstars scored 5 points in 30+ mins yet no one is talking about that 🤦🏽♂️
@@lennox.6447 aND ALL WE HEARD WAS crickets...LOL
Lakers will always get more attention and focusing on another team doesn't do anything for the lakers
Rondo and the lingering injuries Kuz has had are the reasons he hasnt performed of late. Hes won us 3 games within the 10 game stretch being incredibly efficient. Idk whats up with rondo but hes been missing cutters and disrupting rhythm
Rondo is doing great! Kuz is the issue!
๋Jenny Judge nah watch the games. He’s deflating the ball dribbling the heck out of it missing people a lot. He is shooting great from the 3 but that’s about it
Lineup should be:
1 - LeBron (closer)
2 - KCP
3 - Green (closer)
4 - Davis (closer)
5 - McGee (Howard closes)
6 - Kuzma (closes)
or
1 - Caruso
2 - Green
3 - LeBron
4 - Davis
5 - Howard
6 - Kuzma
Yes! He is. He does more harms than good so far. What a very wonderful question?
He can't create offense by himself, that's why it doesn't seem like a great fit. We need to find a consistent 10-15 point perimeter scorer while not weakening our defense.
I think AD Howard McGee destroy the joker
The joker is getting fatter he needs to watch that weight
Trade Kuzma
Huge Lakers fan, love kuzma. Although they already traded their young core, see what options you have for a kuzma trade. Also we need a man like Iggy on our team
If you don’t play defense, you don’t play with Vogel. Against the Jazz, he had 3 blocks and 4 steals. Although some of that was in garbage time, that shows that’s the conversation him and Vogel had regarding his playing time. He probably told him that he can’t play him when guys like Howard Green, Caruso, KCP, Bradley, and Rondo are making open shots and lay ups/dunks AND playing defense
the only question is that he should get more playing time , great player for the lakers
Only thing he needs is a clean fade.
They have like what 16 wins and y'all ask this? I don't get it
@NatarisX ok
In all seriousness.....if Kuz didn’t play U.S.A. ball and didn’t get injured, we wouldn’t be having this conversation about Kuz. That injury benched him right at the beginning of the season and made Vogel look elsewhere for pieces on the roster. And guess what? Vogel found those pieces
Its time to let Kuzma go as well.
Yall want this man to drop 30 a night on a team wit Bron AND AD. He not out there to show out. All he need to do is follow suit.
Sorry kuz needs to go
Never been sold on Kuzma. He's the usual 20 pt scorer on a bad team basically. He does not play D. WIth Davis taking his spot, he needs to be a deadshot from three or just be content with being the substitute star whenever Lebron and AD are load managing. (which is an important role).
