    The Kings have been in search of a big man for a long time. They were thrilled to grab him at #5. I seriously doubt they let go of Cousins this year.

    The Houston Rockets' affiliate in the NBA Developmental League is known as...

    (a) the Rio Grande Valley Vipers
    (b) the Sacramento Kings
    (c) both of the above.

    No to Melo, the point where he would have made a difference has passed. Cousins was an obvious match and an interesting tidbit about Carl.

    This thread is about to BLOW UP

    Cousins would be a great fit for this team though.

    we can go to a lottery, draft Irving, let Yao go and have that lineup

    Irving/Lowry/Ish
    Martin/Lee
    Battier(?)/Budinger
    Scola/Patterson/Hayes
    Cousins/Landry/Miller

    Pretty nice combo of young talent and quality veterans

    Looks like something they read on this board and turned it into a rumor.

    I'd be all for it, but it seems like an extreme longshot. Even then, I think a third team would have to be involved. We have too many bigs on the roster as it is, so we'd really need to unload Hill and Jeffries at a minimum. It would be awfully nice to get Landry's heart back, though.

    I don't know much about Cousins save for his attitude problems. THe Rockets have a history of working well with players with exceptional chips on their shoulders so I think that, if he can help the team, then get it done. I'd send Brooks and Bud for him + a 2nd round pick.

    Landry sucks now, I hope you know that.

    Dude can't even make his free throws like he used to.

    If you wouldn't want Landry back on this team you must be on crack.

    Trade Kevin Martin for Carl Landry and Luther Head. We've been missing the playoffs because we've been missing Luther.

    Do you guys remember that dunk he had on Bynum! Sick!!
