Kings ownership is rich, he is a business man even if he doesn't know much about basketball. He knows how to make money, and he makes money with a new arena.

If the Lakers have the #3 or #4 overall pick I would target Myles Turner out of Texas. He would be my PF of the future.
I know we have Randle but I would offer him to the Celtics for their lotto pick which should be around 8-12, if they don't budge I would throw in our Houston pick. At that range I would pick Willie Cauley Stein.
In FA, I'd target Omer Asik since Marc Gasol is a long shot.

The Myles Turner who runs like he's had 2 hip replacement surgeries?
You'd really trade Randle for a 8-12 pick? Yikes.

LOL - obviously I assume his hips won't be a lingering issue. If he doesn't check out health wise then forget it. Offensively, his upside is huge. Great touch!
I really don't understand why you are all so high on Randle.

Celtics have Sullinger as their future PF. I think they keep the pick and draft Cauley Stein tbh. |

So you think that Philly is also angling for a new arena? They aren't. Profits in Sacramento depend on a new arena, that was why this owner bought the team and why Kevin Johnson got so involved. Logic says getting rid of the fan favorite would be a really bad move, at least until the arena is built. The fans nearly rioted when they fired Malone, the owner won't take that risk again. Discussing fantasy trades is fun, but the idea that the Kings will trade Cousins anytime soon is just that.

Well Sullinger can't get into shape and just broke his foot. I know Ainge had interest in Randle from the Rondo deal. Who knows, Randle and the 25th or 26th for their #8-12 pick. I like Stein, reminds me of a young Tyson Chandler. He just needs to add another 20-25 pounds.

It's not only us, it's the Lakers organization. They refused to part with him despite trade inquiries for him. They're not going to watch the kid recover from an injury to trade him for a lowly 8-12 pick. I think they have high hopes for him.

Take it with a grain of salt, my 76ers friends say that the current owner is trying to get the 76ers out of Philly to play in Newark (the owner also owns the NJ Devils who play there too). By doing their strategy, their hope is to allegedly get out of Philly. Who knows.

You know the Lakers said no to Ainge when he was trying to trade for Randle. I don't think an 8-12 pick gets it done. And you want to throw in the Houston pick too? Ah hell no.

 @ trading Randle for Myles Turner
Randle is head and shoulders better than Turner. |

| Randle is not being traded let alone for a pick 8 - 12. I like Turner but he's not better then Randle and he's actually a C. Not sure if you're serious or just trolling. |

Randle was who the FO wanted in the draft, Mitch was downright giddy when he picked him. Well, as giddy as Mitch can get.

| I had Parker and Randle as the top 2 in the draft and thought both would be 22+ scorers. They we're the only players that had the alpha mentality and ability to take over games. |
