It seems like they like KUZ

How about pick 32(Bolden) and Derrick Jones JR for KUZ?

Reports were they wanted him at trade deadline.
I think we should keep Kuz.
He had some great numbers when starting.
He's a rookie, an older one, but still.

Give him another year. You know he has NBA level skill.
These second round picks, they may not even make it in the league a year.

I don't know if Kuz will break the rotation next year, but he has had a year to see what he can do and what he needs to improve on. If he's better, great for us. If he's the same guy, we don't play him in the rotation.

Low risk/low investment with a decent reward.

Nah two things that I dont like about him. A his defense is not close to being acceptable and at 27-8 hard to improve. B his confidnece in his game looks like it cna go sour quick. I cant sit here and say this guy is 20 years old rookie--no way hes a vet. Id rather have a slant to tougher defensive players.

If Kuz can take a HUGE step forward in terms of strength/lateral quickness this year -- he might be something BUT at 27 years old that is probably not going to happen.

Wish KUZ was 22 - then we might have something nice.

If we succeed in unloading Melo and want to keep Kuz unless we have to package him in a really good deal for us.

I looked at some of Derrick Jones' tapes. No way in hell are we getting him for Kuz...

Kuz had no idea where he was on D half the time. And when it appeared he had an idea of where to be, he couldn't get there. Trade him for two cups of coffee and a 2nd rounder.

Posting here because it looked like it was possibly the only trade thread that didn't involve the guy with the NTC, but of course...
