They have a bench?
I still think OKC > NO based off of them having Durant and Westbrook while we only have AD and a bunch of jokers.
Cole, Gordon, Cunningham, AD, and Asik as your starters with Evans, Ryno, and Q-Pon off the bench is a pretty good team. Not to mention when Holiday comes back we will actually have another ball handler and point guard to run the second team! It's going to be awesome to see the second team not look like chickens with their heads cut off!
If we buy out Hamilton so what, if we keep him though, Withey has competition.
I like it. No harm, no foul.
I don't know I kind of liked the idea of having Williams, but whatever. Cole is gonna help this team short term and long term. We get a good backup point guard for Jrue next season.
Don't see us making the playoffs, so I'm already looking to next season.

Cole, Hamilton & Williams for Salmons.....and Ish Smith for minor pieces??

We're not getting in the playoffs without holiday. Jrue is so much better than our other guards on defense and FT percentage. We'll need Jrue if we want the playoffs. I hope he can come back. I have a feeling they'll hold him back even more than 3 weeks. Whatever it takes let him get healthy. He's the 2nd best on this team.
Well look at this. I step away for a few hours and come back to Cole being on the team.
I'm sorry but ANY trade that gives us a backup of for Salmons is a huge win.
A good show me period for Cole. If he looks good, we can give him the QO and keep him for another year. If not, no harm, no foul
Getting Cole creates more stability at PG. he's a good defender. If Jrue comes back I will be happy to have Cole in the backup role. He'll probably perform better having AD, Ryno, Gordon to work with. I'm happy with the move.
Cole
Qpon
Cunningham
Ryno
AD
Would be interesting...
Also you never know, we could see:
Cole
Gordon
Tyreke
AD
Asik
The saddest part of the trade is now I have no one to call Salmonella when he plays a few minutes every couple weeks.
