    Apparently no one is offering MLE to Cousins. He'd be a way better matchup against AD than Capela. He's also better than McGee and Nene. Yes he was hurt a lot these last few years but people forget he's only 28

    Do I want Cousins? Yes.

    But does Cousins want us? I doubt it.

    Just like Melo, I'll take the upside as long as it doesn't hurt us long term.

    I'm sure Cousins won't want a long term deal anyways so he can prove himself.

    He can't stand Chris Paul for some strange reason. :D

    For less than than the MLE? I’d give him a look. He should be much healthier next year, with more time removed from his initial Achilles injury.

    He should be hungry. He might be a risk worth taking. He would upgrade our overall talent.

    Yes and I start him at the 4 next to Capela with PJ moving to the 3.

    It's time to end the small ball as the starting lineup. It needs to be situational. We need more height and more variations in scoring.

    he wont be. that Achilles definitely took its toll on him. he was never the fastest guy and this made it even worse by taking away the lift and limiting his mobility even more.

    He actually really doesn't like CP3 so I doubt he'd even choose us for cheap. If Kawhi goes to the Lakers sure, not like it would matter anyways.

    Absolutely. But the rockets would tell you they’re excited about Hartenstein and what he brings.
