    Morris/Donatas for Cousins/Thomas... not very attractive :p

    but my main question: didn't you guys cut Cook, or was that a false rumor? i saw it mentioned on the Pacers forum earlier

    NBA sources are full of ****, if Woj isnt't reporting it this is what i feel about it.
    I mean how many of us saw the harden deal coming? Sources are noting more than what a player's agent thinks.

    If they're actually trying to trade him right now, then this is Morey's time to shine. He loves buying low.

    Cousin's contract is only 3 million. It's not like he's worth 20 million like Melo.

    Good. Kid is way to talented he needs to grow up & mature (he will) but he has a ridiculous amount of potential. I am still a believer in him despite everything. He is frustrating but i believe in his talent.

    That's what people here completely miss, the organization really believes this guy is a difference maker and can be an essential part of us as a contender. No way Morey gives up on him after a few months, money is no issue here and he's not hurting the team.

    come on, Yung-T
    ask yourself do you really believe one good season in college makes him a difference maker among men.... when he played against boys?

    They would be more likely to move Evans, maybe even Jimmer.

    Yeah I know, but if Morey wants to trade for him he's probably going to have to eat some bad contracts. We don't have the assets that other teams might have so taking on salary might get it done. Don't think it would mess with the max cap space either.
