DeMarcus Cousins? {merged}

well, Jones just lost a lot of minutes too. He's been playing very well. Right now is an excellent time to move him.

For the best. Wonder which teams would be interested?

I just don't see it. Too very high usage bigs together? One of the two will have to fall back on the offensive side. Solo needs to be at least 42% from that corner now.

And if they were going to trade all these picks, it would have to be for a player this caliber. Did no see that as possible but I guess Sacramento really wanted Cousins gone.

Pray it all works out the same.

Biggest question with this trade is...are we able to re-sign?

If not, we essentially just burned 2 first round picks and a second for a rental....and maybe an 8th seed.

You are so right that's why I don't give anyone a hard time about their trades. Good move, now hopefully we have a couple more in the works. I'd Like to see us move Jones and at least one of the centers and maybe even Cunningham.

He won't bring much in a trade. He is an expiring bench player. May only bring a fake 2nd.

Holiday/Frazier
Moore/Stephenson??
Hill/Casspi
Davis/Cunningham
Cousins/DMo

Asik, ajinca and Tjones on the block. We to find some guards.

We could trade a 2018 pick it would just have to be a swap of picks ala nets this year.

If we get Josh smith it'll be Detroit 2.0

I'm gonna need MM to chime on that Josh Smith business. That can't be real.
