    The teams that find the Kyle Kuzma, not the ones that pay him, are the ones that succeed long term.

    David Aldridge said today he’s getting John Collins money($25M) and he does not want to go back to a team where he’ll stand in the corner and wait. “He doesn’t want to be a stationary guy. He wants the ball in his hands. He wants to create off the bounce. He got a lot of freedom to do that in Washington.”

    I think Kuzma is more like $30M starting salary.

    We aren’t a championship team.

    There will be 3000 minutes vacated by KJM and Tate. He wouldn’t be taking minutes from Tari and Jabari.

    Man… Rockets always start out the bar looking for the 10’s. But then reality sets in and we’re left with the 01:59’ers and having to take home the 4’s or maybe if we’re lucky a 5.

    Those 4s and 5s end up doing all the cooking and cleaning. They do the dirty work. It can work out ok.

    Good point. 3000 minutes is a lot. But after looking at Kuzma's profile and hearing $25MM/year is the starting bid for Kuzma, https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/k/kuzmaky01.html I am firmly in the No Kuzma camp. Give those minutes to Cam (1500 minutes) and Tari (+1000) and Garuba (+500).

    This post hits close to home.

    One time I was slaying at club roxy. Had multiple 8,9, and 10s. Took some pill, blacked out, woke up barely conscious driving on the freeway on a flat. That rim was potently flaming shooting sparks, had to get a new rim. Back to the point, nab an 8 early and call it a night.

    Kyle has been the wildest name I have heard so far in this FA.

    No. Please no. He's got good stats on a bad team mentality.

    I don't get it. Just don't see the fit at all really.
