    As much as we've robbed them, overpaying for this wouldn't be that bad (as long as Parsons and Dmo are out of talks)

    I'd only trade Parsons in that deal if I KNEW for a fact Orlando agreed to trade Howard to us.

    Other than that, I think we're giving up too much to Sacramento if that's the real deal.

    I think this is the case. Drummond seems like a huge diversion. I've been wondering for a while now if MKG isn't the real target.

    Let the GM do his work. We always said we need to gamble and get talent here, well you gotta give up something to get something. Parsons had a decent year. His ceiling is a good role player. Let's be honest. Who knows what other moves Morey has in mind after making that one. I'm sure he has thought about it ad will surpise us once again.

    It doesn't really matter though, because like every year the clutchfans GMs say he made a wrong pick... I can't wait to hear the crying and whining after the trade is announced..

    That would be my pitch. Sell them on the Patterson can help keep Cousins happy and in-line. That's what you want. You don't want him going off or bailing on you like that Howard dude.

    But if they don't bite and truly do ask for Parsons then it would pain me but I'd do it especially if I could sell Toronto Reke for #8. They need a player like him to distribute and score. Ok...that might be a tougher sell...

    We dont need Parsons. Thats what you got D-mo, Morris, and another draft pick for. Time to toughen up and go all in instead of being scared little beyotches. Lets do this Morey. Lay down the gauntlet on them.

    If Parsons goes, we'll get Josh Smith. We'll have the best shotblocking front court!!
    Dwight/Camby
    Pao
    JSmith.

    Y'all get attached too easily. It was the end of the world when we traded Mandry, now he's a free agent, where's all the threads about bringing him back? Clutchfans demanded Morey's head when he let the Chuckwagon walk, and now how do you feel about? Budinger and Aaron Brooks were considered untouchable to some people here, and now people are glad that both are gone. Lowry was the next big thing. Wouldn't trade him for anyone not named Dwight or Lebron, remember? Now, we're ready to pack his bags for him lol.

    No, Parsons is untouchable at this point.

    I understand the reluctance in giving up Parsons, but how ****ing great it is that we can trade 2nd round picks (Budinger and Parsons) to get this type of value!? How can you not love Morey's work?

    If that's the deal then I'm hoping that Robinson drops to them. So they can keep their pick.

    I'd rather deal with the Blazers or Warriors, in order to get Drummond, then overpaying Sacramento.
