Pels should take that deal in a heartbeat. Not sure why Sacramento would.nick wrote:Cousins for Hield/1/1shel311 wrote:Nothing too crazy and no clue how we'd have enough assets to pull it off, but rumors swirling about the Pels inquiring about Cousins and George.
apparently if Boston will give up the Brooklyn pick, they'll get Jimmy Butler.
The Pelicans have agreed to trade Buddy Hield, Tyreke Evans, Langston Galloway and a future first- and second-round pick to the Kings in exchange for DeMarcus Cousins, sources told ESPN.

I get it for NO because Hield is no more than a spot up shooter that you can find pretty easily and they only gave up one first. I thought it was a heist for NO. Now the question is will it work, that brand of twin tower basketball is not the way you win anymore. Personally I hope these guys get really creative and make it work. Would love to see some Boogie/AD pick and rolls.DRiccio21 wrote:i don't understand the deal for either team.
His agent said there is very little chance he resigns with any team that traded for him.
His agent did say that before the trade but that is not uncommon. You gave up peanuts for what an NBA superstar is worth and you have first shot to extend him. He is good friends with AD, it was a shot you have to take because it would be nearly impossible these days to get a superstar like that to sign with NO in free agency.

Not having the assurance of a Cousins extension is the only reason why.nick wrote:everywhere i read this is a bad trade for the Pelicans too.
So getting 2 elite players on 1 team is now not good because they'll want the ball in their hands?nick wrote:ya lookin at stats is fun until Boogie n Davis want the ball in their hands.
