It's also possible that Evans just doesn't want to come to New Orleans and signs a smaller deal with Sacto.

It's possible, but unlikely imo.

Woj tweeted 30 min ago, Portland possible destination with Indiana and others involved. He'll be moved today is my guess

It's been reported that he'd rather stay. That's unbelievable that someone would rather play for that joke of a franchise, than come to our up and coming young core.

The one thing you don't do to New Orleanians is shun their city. If he wants to stay in Sacto... ****'em.

Just bought a house out there and comfortable out there. Doesnt have Gordon or Holiday in his way. Yes they drafted BMac but he is 6-5 Gordon 6-3 can slide to the 3 easier or Tyreke can play some PG/SG combo as well.

I think we will eventually see a Vasquez for Evans S&T. Just a wild guess.

He is probably saying that for the same reason we are saying Gordon would be the starter and he would be off the bench. It's all niceties just in case the deal falls apart.

I am becoming more and more convinced we are going to trade Lopez to make room, sign and trade Roberts or Vasquez for Reke, then trade Gordon for Deng. The question I have is who will be the center we pick up to play 10-15 minutes or against the bigger bigs.

Yep I could be wrong but starting to get the feeling he doesn't want to come here or were obviously not his first choice.

He ain't down with 6th man or playing 3.

''Prefer to stay in Sacramento''

First time I've ever heard those words.

Using us as leverage might bite him in the behind if Dell yanks the offer and his market value resets itself.

I think he is just not trying to burn bridges either way. He doesn't wanna say he doesn't want to be there because if they resign him fans will remember that (ala Eric Gordon).

I wouldn't take stock into what jones has to say. He's not respected by king fans. He's like their Mackel. i

Per those close to the situation as of this morning, DeMarcus Cousins maintains his desire for a max contract by this summer.

This may help our case though.

They have plenty of cap flexibility. Cousins has no impact on Evans.

I agree with this. He wants to start and Dell sees him in a Terry/Manu role. He'd still get starters minutes and salary, so I don't see the big deal
