Just like Josh Hart has gone hrough several teams, Kyle Kuzma is on the move again. This time he is headed to Milwaukee.

Sources: Bucks trade Middleton, land Kuzma

The Bucks have traded Khris Middleton to the Wizards, ending his tenure as one of their franchise cornerstones in a deal that sends Kyle Kuzma to Milwaukee, sources told ESPN.

I hope Luka takes this trade as a reason to get in tip top shape and prove Dallas that they were wrong to trade him.

Feb 25th cannot get here fast enough.

Hearing Luka could play on Saturday.

I'd take Hart yesterday over Kuz.

Loved that play last night where Bron motioned at Doncic and said, "That's what we're going to do."

 

[DJ Fieri]

With a 25yo young whippersnapper like Doncic? Bron could play another 3-4 years and not have to be the #1. He could be the OG as the #2 option. Even if he started to decline a little....

The man is an ageless wonder.

 

[DJ Fieri]

If we don't trade Reaves at the deadline I think he has to go in the summer for a C.

Bron and Doncic can work since Bron wants to play off the ball but it's asking too much for Reaves to work with those 2....Reaves needs the ball in his hands to a certain degree and Doncic will be the one with that as the PG. Thought about Reaves off the bench but Knecht probably starting as the designated gunner at SG. And I think Reaves would take offense to that. We can find backup guards.....heck we could keep Vincent if we trade Reaves and Vincent is improving coming back from his injury.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Bron when asked that they bringing Doncic in for the future: Smiles and says "What's wrong with that?"

He knows Father Time is undefeated....but like I mentioned, this could elongate his career from 1, 2 more years to 3-4. Not like James is playing like a 40yo this season. The NBA version of Tom Brady?

We shall see.

 

[Retroram52]

Agreed on all posts, DJ!!

The Lakers played a near-perfect game last night against the ClipJoint. That was overdue. I still think that Pelinka should just let finding another Center go until the summer and ride the team that is emerging to whatever its outcome shall be. Who knows, maybe they get real close to the Championship Round.

If you are right DJ about Doncic and James and Doncic's presence extending his playing days, then by all means, Pelinka should not eff with the chemistry and dominance quotient that this team is already developing.
