Ive decided to modify my trade idea, slightly. Still with Bulls, still Lopez and Holiday, but now add Kris Dunn. We still send Wes and Solo, add Diallo and our first rd pick now. We can throw in Clark if they want him.

It's that the Hornets unashamedly quit so quickly in Game 4 after fans in New Orleans showed up this season with greater regularity than the team could have ever dreamed, shaming misinformed know-it-alls like me who kept telling you that local residents couldn't possibly invest their time and money into something as trivial as rooting for the local basketball team while still recovering from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. - Mark Stien ESPN
What do the Rockets have to offer us since they are looking to make moves? I’ll gladly take CP3 back for Hill and Holiday in a trade since y’all don’t want John Wall.
The object is to get better so Davis won’t leave.
Paying John Wall or Chris Paul $40M/year versus paying Jrue who is likely the better player at this point $25M/year does not make us better. AD never played with John Wall, they're not like best friends or something. He's likely closer with Jrue. CP3 is old and on the decline and could be worth less than half his contract in 2 years
Agree CP3 might be starting a decline. The reason why I brought Cousins up is that Kerr has already admitted they can’t afford to re-sign. Cousins is probably humbled right now. Not supposed to return to GS till March. In hindsight if this was a strategy move by Demps and Loomis it may have paid off. I do think Davis wants Cousins back.
We don't need Cousins, any defensive proven big, such as Robin Lopez, next to AD and/or JR gets the job done
Robin Lopez is not going to save us. Didn’t we have one of the Lopez brothers on our team already? I’m looking to build superteam around Davis to keep Davis here not some guy that plays with the mascot before the game.
The people here have been trying to educate you as to why or why not things make sense, or don't. It is obvious that you are unable to comprehend due to your either inexperience, youth, or just plain arrogance. Cousins returning here would only happen if AD made a condition of his staying, Even then Mrs. Benson thru ML would probably say no way. The team offered him 40 mil to stay and get healthy. Even offered to trade him if he felt he could do better elsewhere. He screwed us over and if TB were alive and Davis made such a demand he would be gone too. So feel free to make all the comments you like, I'm too old to waste my time on this. You see, over 90 percent of the people here have already forgotten more about this game then you will ever know.

Such talk from Davis about Cousins again joining him with the Pelicans could also be good news about the five-time All-Star's future in the coming years in New Orleans.Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry offered strong respect for a still-injured Cousins before New Orleans' loss to the Warriors on Wednesday, and Cousins has said that he was fond of Gentry.
Davis, Gentry and Cousins had an animated discussion after the Pelicans' loss to the Warriors that Gentry said was just old friends laughing and trash-talking.
"I think the world of him," Gentry said. "I think he is the best player at his position in the league."Seems like the only person that got feelings hurt is Demps. Loomis will tell him to get over it and make the deal to bring him back even if we have to cut back on Niko.know the situation [Cousins] was in. He had to make a business move for him and his family. He had to do what was best for his career. You can't do nothing but respect it."
Shortly after, Cousins said he and Davis talked honestly about it all.
"I had a heart-to-heart talk with him after everything went down and he knows where I stand," Cousins said. "He knows I'm not the person to ever blow smoke or lie on a situation. With our time together, I'm sure he can validate that."

How much was ML willing to pay to get Jimmy Graham(Who has a big mouth too)back over the summer. Yeah I know it is Saints related but Loomis does not hold grudges. Give Davis what he wants and he stays. Treat AD like the Cavs and Lakers treat Lebron. It is not impossible for Cousins to return. If that is what Davis wants make it happen.

BTW- Did you see any of the games last night? Big night for Pels.
The odds of Orlando beating Utah--- Bulls coming back from 20 down AT Spurs & Suns beating T-Wolves on same night had to be ASTRONOMICAL.
If Pels win today, attrition amongst other teams through Wednesday will be very good for the Pels.
astrofire is driving yall on here lol...do yall not know this poster is formerly know as 4real?...different name same MO...lol
Deflect deflect deflect guys? How many posters this forum have anyway . I’ll tell you 54
Last in the NBA forums. I’m thinking about starting my own Pelicans forums with a company that affiliates with other NBA forums. Thanks for your help.
Now back to the point I just speaking the truth. I gave you an ESPN source. My guess is that you have very bad denial or simply accept mediocrity. That is your problem not mine.
