Still laughing you were okay with that deal even if it was not the max.
Two different arguments. Don't claim max when Dell offered nothing close.
Go ahead spin it Mythol. It the reason people are blocking you on twitter. 2 years 40 mill would have send light years behind. No it is not max but worse.
If we got to give it to someone give it to Randle.

LOL. 2yr/40m with a team option for the 2nd year is worse then a max? Are you just trying to parody MM at this point?
At some point you are. When a team has committed so much to two players it better to see it to completion. The injury could have easily workout better long term for the Pelicans. The reason the Warriors were so good was Curry's second contract was a prove it deal. We could have signed Cousins to a prove it deal. I'm sure he would have rather that than the 5mil he got for one season.
He clearly wasn't interested in a prove it deal since he turned that down in order to sign for 1/5.
Resigning cousins would have probably allowed us to keep AD. I was in favor of doing what it took to sign him (wouldn’t have taken the max). I thought it was a mistake to let him go. Everything worked out because the Pelicans improbably beat 96% odds and got the first pick. I am happy with how it worked out so far (hoping for good return on AD trade) but still don’t think that was a wise choice. You couldn’t foresee such an unlikely stroke of luck to get the first pick.
The man just lost 35 mil and a ring.
To my knowledge Demps washed his hands with the whole situation after the season ended. Never came back to Cousins with another contract.
Reports were that he reiterated his offer of 2/$40 during playoffs. Once free agency started and Cousins maintained the stance that he would not accept that, the Pelicans pursued and signed Randle. Demps offered Cousins what we had left (between $12 and $15 million on a one year deal). He turned that down as well obviously,.
Cousins also gave up his bird rights.

Yeah I believe Cousins said the opposite. But we'll never know with the he said she said going on.
