We gotta hope New Orleans... struggle to win games, I think we are the favorites to land Cousins considering how close he was to being traded here last year, we just need the Pelicans to lose. |

Do you have a source for this trade somewhat more reputable than reddit? |

I'm gonna say very close. Mitch & Jim offered Russell and they wanted Ingram too. That's when it fell apart. But we can't make this trade right now. We already have a center who can stretch the floor. I don't think we can play Bropez and Cousins at the same time. |

It's not even looking good for us to sign two stars anyway, we shouldn't make another knee-jerk reaction and trade a young stud too early. At least they had personal reasons to trade DLO and got Lopez and Kuzma back. |
They didn’t get Kuzma back. |
Geez really? They got the pick and drafted Kuzma with it. Happy? |
And if they didn’t they could have used their own pick to draft him. The trade had nothing to do with drafting Kuzma, but one could argue it did with drafting Hart and Bryant. |
It's fine if you want to make that argument. Still, the fact remains that they drafted Kuzma with the Nets pick. |
Its hard to believe that the Lakers couldnt get Kuzma without trading with the Nets. They had the very next pick. One spot that low in the draft is really not a big difference. _________________ Llluuukkkeee |

Completely true. It's still a fact that they picked Kuzma with the Nets pick. |

Lakers bound? |
Sadly, he'd immediately become one of our best shooters, but do we really need MORE forwards? |

True, if we get him that means we got a Deng or Brewer deal agreed on. |

I don't think he's gonna retire, probably wants to play for 1 more year, If he can do what Vince Carter is doing at the age of 40, that's a good thing for the young guys on the team, we badly need experienced guys on this team to teach the youth the ropes of winning. |

Yeah, but they are still better than us, and they can get better offers for dumb dumb Cousins. |

They have 2 superstars and a bunch of 3rd tier bench players, that Rondo injury is gonna hurt them and there playoff chances. |

Idea--get the best hackers together and manipulate the ASG voting so Lonzo is captain of team A and Curry is captain of team B (won't need the hackers for that one) and get Lonzo to pick LeBron as his teammate. Then dish to LBJ and get him to 100 points. FA signing guaranteed! |

Does anyone else think Joel Embiid is an *******?
His Twitter beef with Whiteside is idiotic. |
