NBA Champion, Kyle Kuzma declined a trade to the Mavericks chose Jordan Poole over Luka Doncic for basketball reasons….

[King Poetic]

Right thing to do, since u have a ring and plus what legacy is he playing for? None

It’s all about getting your money and shots

Have the Wizards pay u max

Keep getting your 20 points a game with no blame put on you and retire

Going to dallas to see u only getting 10 shots and average 10 points and have bums like Stephen A Smith call u out instead of luka or kyrie by saying others need to step up on the team, no way

 

[MJ Truth]

Some people just want to live a stress free life and make money. He probably likesplaying with no expectations.

Already has a ring and generational wealth. Not everyone wants to be great at their craft.

Playing with Luka won’t help you improve your craft.

 

[T.he I.nformant]

No offense Wizards brehs but you know you’re team a bunch of losers when they talk openly about being ok being losers or being comfortable or having no pressure or whatever bum-ass Kuzma and Poole be talking

 

[JayGatsby]

Luka actually makes players better check the numbers,



Stick with Poole tho, that team is already dead in the water

 

[Raquinotj]

you making some valid points

If I got Rubi Rose at the game I want her to see me drop 35 in a loss instead of 12 in a win.

Breh Imagine shorty going to the game and you get no burn. Then you have put up with Drake clowning you on one of his songs over some chick you both dated.

 

[MikelArteta]

I like of get it
He won a ring already, making mad money and probably enjoys the city.

Why uproot for an extra 4-7 games and go from a first option to a 4rh

 

[GoldenGlove]

Alex Caruso basically doing the same thing in Chicago, but I bet you won't make a thread about that

Has he done any nationwide interviews about rejecting a trade to a specific team? I don’t check up local newspapers or blogs and rumor sites.

I'm just fukking around. I do think that when guys get a chip early on in their careers as high level role guys, that they aren't pressed to chase another ring right away. Kuzma obviously isn't tripping over being on a contender right now.

I remember Caruso saying in an interview with JJ Redikk that he felt that him leaving LA would give him more of a challenge because he didn't have the LeBron safety net behind him. I only brought him up because he, like Kuzma can clearly help plenty of playoff/contending teams push themselves over the top, but there's something about winning when you help build it up than tagging along if that makes sense.

 

[livindajetlife]

Man don’t nobody wanna go from shooting whenever he want to standing in the corner waiting for Luka to pass the ball

 

[Lucky_Lefty]

I forgot this fool had a ring

You’d have to be a super TMZBALL stan to even recall he was ON a title team. Group project ring status at that

 

[Mindfield333]

Damn even Kuzma don't want to play with Luka

He played with LeBron so he probably don’t wanna play with LeBron-lite

 

[L&HH]

Does he have no trade clause or something? Why’s it his choice?

 

[Copy Ninja]

DC is a dope spot to hang out and chill

 

[WhatsGoodTy]

Cause him and Poole playing nba 2k my park over there why would he leave
