It's more like the #2 pick PLUS the cap space we could have used on a max player.

Okafor and max player > Cousins


True, its about $10.5 million in cap space.


Yup. An even more idiotic trade once you consider also including Randle or Clarkson with that package.

There's a typo in the thread title. You said Okafor instead of Cousins.

Yes I would. Cousins has a higher ceiling than Okafor.
Mostly due to athleticism.



"(Cousins) is just an average athlete at best by NBA standards, showing underwhelming leaping ability (vert in the 20s) and just-decent quickness getting up and down the floor."
