I think i predicted this season in the 25-30 win range. The team definitely overachieved even with all the setbacks.35-36 wins lookin doable, with a billion injuries and a ****-ty coach who doesn't understand fan rotations.
I need that #9 champion jersey btw. FIRE

This offseason is gonna be huge for Kuzma. His situation reminds me alot of Clarkson. He was a later pick who spent multiple years in college, surprised alot of people early on and looked like he had the makings of an all-star type player. Like Clarkson, we overlook Kuzma's bad defense because we're so enamored with his offensive potential. Clarkson stopped improving for the most part and settled into his role as a score only player who never improved on defense.
This offseason we'll learn if Kuzma is the player we hope he is or just a taller Clarkson.

Difference is after year 1 all clarkson wanted to do was be in the club and get hella *****es
Kuz is legitimately trying to be great. He came from the gutta so he ain't concerned about nun but bein the goat

Yea Kuz has made strides in season with trying more on defense and being more of a playmaker. Not worried about him plateauing after one season. Just hope honestly Kawhi stays put and just leaves as a free agent and Magic doesn't get tempted.

Fox didn't make any type of impact this season. Zo getting it.
If Zo was healthier, we could see him get the 1st T

If he turns out to be as good as any of those players consider it a MAJOR steal.

I've always liked the Antawn comp, not super athletic but very effective in the paint with those flip/hook shots.
The thing with Kuz is that he's already shown that he can create his own shot in so many different ways. Post up, face up, attacking closeouts, off the dribble/step back 3s, even a little pick n roll ball handling. There are only a few guys that can do all of that at that size.The offensive diversity is ridiculous.

Kuzma is like a hybrid of Jamison and Lewis imo
