Breaking: Pels acquire Demarcus Cousins

[Mexi]

I brought up jj first

 

[Mexi]

jj would be awesome there. then add some solid rotation pieces

keep jrue and sign jj
You can live with hill at the 3

But the bench...

I meant to throw Asik getting stretched in there, which they were considering even before this deal. I think they keep Hill, yes he's overpaid but his impact defensively can't be understated.

they only have $18m in cap space if they stretch Asik and renounce all birds. That's not anywhere near enough to sign a max ($28.7m in Year 1 for a 7-9 year max, $33.6m for a 10+ year max)

You have to move Hill and Asik if you want another max. That simple

I can't see JJ going there

Unless New Orleans offers more than every other team, I don't either

 

[Big Bid'Ness]

Kings will waive Matt Barnes to make room for the incoming guys from the trade lol,

he lives in brooklyn and the Nets have money lol

 

[buzzy]

Nothing worse than an owner having a mancrush on a random player

 

[Mexi]

Buddy is 23
Demarcus is 26

 

[Mexi]

But oh well
I'm really looking forward to this combo
I really think itll work

 

[elcheato]

DeMarcus is a really good passer too. Should be an exciting pair

with the right free agents, they could be an upgraded grizzlies

Its crazy when you see marc and zbo(especially zbo) bully the warriors
And then realize how much better ad and boogie are than zbo, with similar games as marc

Pj tucker as a tony allen type is intriguing. Elite defender

 

[Pugz]

im now pulling for cousins and the pels. gonna 2k them.

 

[JZsportswhiz]

Unreal trade. Hope it works out and both can continue to ball out. If they could get some solid guard play they could really give the Warriors fits
 

Wait no fucking way
 
I overrate the Celtics assets but even yall can admit a better offer can be made than this
 
 
explains why boogie only played 2 minutes in the ASG. didnt want to risk injury

Kerr was told at the half he was getting traded.

 

[Pugz]

I just can't believe such a trash player was the reason we got another superstar. If you told me when Buddy was clanking all those threes that he would be the reason we would get Cousins on our team, I would say the flat earth theory made more sense.

this is really good hahahahaha

 

[Delirium]

I forgot we had Asik's goofy self. If we keep him, maybe we can have lineups where we put him at C, put Boogie at 4, and AD at 3??? Would that work? Definitely not full time but whenever we need to go big and get rebounds? Asik may actually become more useful now.

 

[buzzy]

I think you're gonna gobble up enough rebounds with just Cousins and AD.
I'd rather have another shooter besides them than Asik, who has to be parked near the rim.

I'm just trying to think of good reasons for him to be making all this money and not do shit. Who knows, maybe some team out there has a crush on him like the Kings with Buddy and we can send him over there with a bag of Cheetos for some other great player.
