    I'd prefer to see Cousins end up with a strong, veteran team. Like the Pacers. But I'm a Pacers fan, so take it for what it's worth.

    Ah, it all makes sense now. All of those tireless bumps of the Pau Gasol thread, and mysterious, unsupported praise for an aging talent a trade for which would easily destroy the Rockets' off-season and condemn them to mediocrity...it's all coming into focus now.

    Off to make my "Should the Rockets trade Scott Machado for Paul George?" thread now.

    P.S. Roy Hibbert's max contract play has been so poor this season that it actually insults the legacies of other Georgetown centers like Ewing, Mourning, and Deke. Pacers fans might want to come to grips with THAT and get their own house in order before suggesting James Harden for George Hill trades on ClutchFans, no? :cool:

    If we can get Cousins...of course, are you kiddin me, he's so intimidated inside and so talented that playing with the right team can elevate him to another level. The Kings are a losing team ...so that's what they do to you...making you angry.

    That would explain his laughable shooting percentage at the rim.

    No Thanks Jeff.


    Cousins is the cancer for the Kings. They will look much better when he is gone. Although, everybody on the Kings is a chucker, Brooks, Thornton, etc.

    Cousins is soft, a cancer, plays no defense, a headcase, etc.

    Why would anyone want him other than his "talent"?

    I wonder if you have ever actually watched Demarcus Cousins play.

    Demarcus Cousins is talented like JaMarcus Russell is talented. All tools, conjecture, and mental issues.

    The Kings will not let go of their franchise player for T-Jones and some terrible draft picks.

    Though a three-team trade where we end up with someone other than DMC sounds good. I would be happy if we got Ryan Anderson and only had to let go of a pick and some of our young PFs.

    A top-8 protected first round pick from the Hornets is great for Cousins and Evans since they're clearly trying to get rid of them. It's an addition by subtraction move that sets them up better for the future.

    If he can shoot 3's and play power forward, then yes i'll trade for him.
    Cousins and Asik would make a strong front court. And if it doesn't work out with him, then it will be a lot more easier for us to trade for Kevin Love.
