Cousins for Melo? Is Sacramento pitching in a first rounder or so?

WOW did not know Cousins was shooting at a 41% clip.

Yeah he is no superstar. Time to look elsewhere for that superstar. And Robinson has not been lighting it up either......

I wonder if the Rockets would be interested.
Cousins + Salmons -> Patterson Cook Aldrich

Sarcasm detector may need a recharge.

No, I said what I meant. It wouldn't be sarcasm if the trade made sense.

Cue the rayz guy outrage post.

Anyone think OKC might dangle that TOR lotto pick? I think the team situation is just as important as the coach. Cousins won't act up with Durant there to "WTF, bro?" him.

Cousins reminds me of Ricky Davis cause he has the talent but a 5 cent brain.

**Luke** · 12-23-2012, 07:36 PM

The kid could still be salvaged. Immediately when I saw this thread I thought of him going to the Spurs for obvious reasons. Boston would be another great situation for him. I love Adelman but I don't think Minny is a great situation for him simply because a.) Love is doing his best Dwightmare impersonation and more important b.) they're just way too young for me to feel comfortable bringing another kid on board.

I think playing with the right players might help: Garnett Duncan are the two most obvious to me.

KG and TD would not put up with his ish.
Sacremento has such a young team there's no obvious mentor there to smack him across the head.

Durant might be too young to mentor Cousins.

Dee-Zy · 12-23-2012, 09:49 PM

Agreed, I don't think KD and I don't think Scott Brooks has enough what it take to reign that knucklehead in.

I would keep DMC as far away from OKC as possible. He looks like the type of player that could really **** things up.

He reminds me of Kobe, has a decent skill set but ****ing ruins his career with everything he's done.

Blind hatred strains your already ruined credibility.

You watch Kobe Bryant and think, why in god's name is he considered a superstar.

I dunno, maybe scoring 30,000 points in a career (something only four other players in the history of the league has accomplished) has something to do with it.

**Jace** · 12-23-2012, 10:29 PM

Kobe totally ruined his career...ALL THE WAY TO FIVE CHAMPIONSHIPS.

I've got it zoomed in on my phone where I can only see the quotes and no user names, and as soon as I read this I was like "yep, that's my guy, no question of a doubt."

Predictability. I like it.
