By K@do Go To Postfuuuuuuuuuck. i want Russell dammit :(Lakers fans complaining about getting the best young C in the game and another nice piece like Winslow or Hezonja.
Cousins is a franchse killer.
The Kings don't need DMC's help killing their franchise. They shoot themselves in the foot every offseason. Boogie's a good dude, he's just stuck in a completely fucked up situation.
Why does George Karl get to trade maybe the best center in the league? The last time he went to the Finals, Shawn Kemp only had like five kids. He got run out of Milwaukee and Denver. He couldn't get along with Ray Allen.

#2 + #27 + Jordan Hill for Cousins and Landry. I'm down.
he Los Angeles Lakers and Sacramento Kings exchanged frameworks of a trade centered on All-Star DeMarcus Cousins on Wednesday and discussions could intensify on Thursday, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
The Kings started to engage with teams and explore possible trade scenarios beyond the Lakers on Wednesday, league sources said. Sacramento management has publicly said it won't trade Cousins, but that stance has increasingly softened and the franchise is proceeding further on moving him, league sources said.
After Sacramento Kings coach George Karl pushed for Kings management to trade Cousins this spring, Cousins is unenthusiastic about returning to play for Karl and would be eager for a deal to the Lakers, league sources said.
Kings vice president of basketball operations Vlade Divac has pursued a possible deal that would include a bevvy of assets, including the Lakers' No. 2 pick in Thursday's NBA draft, rookies Julius Randle and Jordan Clarkson and other draft assets, league sources told Yahoo Sports. Sacramento also would want to unload the remainder of forward Carl Landry's two years, $13.5 million contract, league sources said.
Minimally, the Lakers have no intention of including Randle in a deal for Cousins, league sources told Yahoo Sports. Randle, a power forward, was the seventh overall pick in the 2014 NBA draft and missed most of his rookie season after leg surgery. The Lakers are reluctant to part with Clarkson too, sources said.
The Lakers are eager to make a deal for Cousins before Thursday night's draft, but if no agreement is in place, Los Angeles will continue to decide between Duke center Jahlil Okafor and Ohio State guard D'Angelo Russell, sources said.
Sacramento owner Vivek Ranadive has been unwilling to discuss a deal to send Cousins to Denver, where Sacramento's former coach, Michael Malone, and former general manager, Pete D'Alessandro, have been recently hired, sources said. Denver has had interest in a three-way deal that would land Cousins with the Lakers and possibly deliver the Kings several players – including point guard Ty Lawson – who Karl has expressed a desire to be reunited with in Sacramento, sources said.

But George Karl needs Ty Lawson.
After all, Ty may show up hungover to practices, but he's not Boogie!

y'all can keep hyping Cousins as if he's some kind of franchise player to lead a team to a championship,
but i know the truth, trust me, i've watched enough of kings games.
dude is clownshoes, really.

Told y'all Mitch is in love with Randle.
LA has to have a first rounder this draft so we might end up picking for Sacramento come tomorrow night.

If LA doesn't pull the trigger on Randle+Okafor for Boogie and misses out on Boogie, that's going to look real fucking horrible in three years.
I'm sure this will turn out as well as the last time the Lakers traded away their future for a centre
If Sac-Town gets Randle and Russel for Cousins... it wouldn't be a great deal but I think it would be a decent deal.
By K@do Go To Postsee, IWMTB gets it,
stay the fuck out of our rebuilding process, boogie.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostIf LA doesn't pull the trigger on Randle+Okafor for Boogie and misses out on Boogie, that's going to look real fucking horrible in three years.Lol

By blackace Go To PostIf Sac-Town gets Randle and Russel for Cousins… it wouldn't be a great deal but I think it would be a decent deal.Watch them draft Porzingis or Mudiay at #2.

But I really like Clarkson, and I've been drinking that Randle kool-aide since we drafted him without him being able to kill my vibe by actually suiting up and being ass.
Just give us Cousins for Jordan Hill +#2 and the burden of Landry's next 2 seasons.
By fertygo Go To Postshut the fuck up already yoOmg yes
Like I said, I think Russell is the best player in the draft, I see little bust in him. If you HAVE to trade a center and aren't getting a center back the next best thing is a SG with star upside..
By psychintellect Go To PostOmg yesIT'S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME... OF THE YEAR.
By blackace Go To PostIf Sac-Town gets Randle and Russel for Cousins… it wouldn't be a great deal but I think it would be a decent deal.
As long as they get Russel and not Okafor. Probably better than having say Muiday and Cousins too.
I'd still rather see them keep DMC and pick Herzonja for lolz
By pilonv1 Go To PostI'm sure this will turn out as well as the last time the Lakers traded away their future for a centreYou mean Bynum? That trade was a godsend for the Lakers.
By fertygo Go To Postshut the fuck up already yoyou're just mad, there's a possibility Chicago wont match Jimmy's offer sheet,
no need to take it out on me,
Speaking of Jimmy, is Portland gonna be the one to offer him the max offer sheet now with Batum gone?
By pilonv1 Go To PostAs long as they get Russel and not Okafor. Probably better than having say Muiday and Cousins too.

Towns of course is that dude who might be Dirk Duncan.. but I think Russell is the truth and Okafor will be a bad as his cousin..
By reilo Go To PostSpeaking of Jimmy, is Portland gonna be the one to offer him the max offer sheet now with Batum gone?Hendo future
Accept it
By reilo Go To PostSpeaking of Jimmy, is Portland gonna be the one to offer him the max offer sheet now with Batum gone?You mean a 2 year deal?
Mario isn't the exact pick I would make for New York maybe, but that would be a good and interesting pick. Mario and Melo are perfect fits in terms of game and style of play, but are absolutely horrible fits in terms of attitude.
By Mamba Go To PostYou mean a 2 year deal?I didn't say years :P
And Olshey just might. Even this Batum trade keeps them supremely flexible financially.
By The Frankman Go To Post
Seriously, fuck George Karl. Weakass bitch nigga.
really? come on son..
By reilo Go To PostSpeaking of Jimmy, is Portland gonna be the one to offer him the max offer sheet now with Batum gone?Jimmy's a 2 guard, you guys just acquired one of those.
Someone with no other options is gonna give him a max and hope against hope Chicago goes cheap for absolutely no reason.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostMario isn't the exact pick I would make for New York maybe, but that would be a good and interesting pick. Mario and Melo are perfect fits in terms of game and style of play, but are absolutely horrible fits in terms of attitude.In that case I'm rooting for him to go there.
By psychintellect Go To PostHendo futureTo accept Henderson is to accept the void.
Accept it
reilo pls
By Morzingis Go To PostJimmy's a 2 guard, you guys just acquired one of those.We acquired like, a backup level 2-guard. If anything, McCollum is starting next year if Portland doesn't acquire a starting quality SG :|

It's a good day to die.
For real though, like I give a mother fuck about any of this. George Karl can chug down some fucking testicles. There's absolutely zero pressure to move DMC anywhere. I guarantee you Karl is gone waaaay before Cousins. No FO in the league is that fucking dumb. Not once has DMC ever suggested that he wanted to be traded. Shit would be a historically unprecedented level of stupid if you move a superstar who actually wants to be there.
