Gambo: Possible Cousins to suns

[Finito]

Eric Bledsoe to the Pelicans for next years 1?????

Well this deals makes perfect sense if Cousins doesn't ink some extension then he's a short term rental.

The Pelicans pick is mildly protected so the Kings will likely have two first round picks in the draft.

The Kings were at significant risk to lose a 2017 Top-10 protected pick to Chicago, and trade increases chances to hold onto it.

Great deal, Eric bledsoe for a 23 to 30 pick, sign me up

Incredible deal for new orleans, anthony davis can play all over the floor, no problem occupying same space as cousins. Plus They are now a big destination for a third star.

The one thing gs can't do is guard great bigs, so having two against them and pounding their ass on the glass is smart way to go.

And since when is Davis an "offensive big"?

He's probably a top 3 best defensive big man in the game. He can guard 1-5 with ease.

Dell Demps has made a bunch of errors throughout his GM career but he just made up for every single one of it and a lot more.

He deserves Exec of the Year and its not even close.

Is Bledsoe part of the long term plan? I don't think he is I don't think you can trust his health given his history.

Suns fans need to stop thinking he's a star

I'd consider some kind of package that includes that

I'm not against trading, but his stock is high, trading for trash probably is not way to go.

If we don't get boogie or some equivalent then I don't know why we keep Bledsoe.

Who wouldn't have thought Cousins would command more assets?

Yeah but Cousins isn't worth near as much if he's not locked in long term. We arnt hearing anything on that.

It's not you stock pile picks you pretty much have 2 first round picks the next 3-4 years with the Miami picks. That's a lot of assets

 

[GatorAZ]

Did anyone besides Gambo report that the Kings were active in discussions for Cousins prior to this weekend?

 

[Mainstreet]

Yeah but Cousins isn't worth near as much if he's not locked in long term. We arnt hearing anything on that.

Maybe Cousins was picking the teams like the Lakers and the Pelicans.

 

[hsandhu]

I'm assuming suns really value this 2017 pick and that's why they weren't in on this deal.

Getting an all star talent out of this draft is everything right now.

Or the Suns have their eye on another target.

I really think the Suns value their pick in the upcoming draft.

And maybe he didn't?? I mean all the talk is he wanted to stay in sactown..What happened to that ..What happened to a contract extension?

Well that's not a bad option either!

Maybe the Kings didn't want to risk 200 million as said in an earlier tweet.

Lonzo Ball and Booker is a much better back court

Yeah something isn't adding up on this deal... We're missing some important details here

 

[pokerface]

Lonzo Ball and Booker is a much better back court

Yeah and what happens to Bledsoe...lol

 

[hsandhu]

Lonzo Ball and Booker is a much better back court

That's debateable, proven in nba vs not, but even if it is we trade bledsoe for real value, not trash.

 

[hsandhu]

Simmons and Celtics fans freaking out, don't blame them, they had multiple assets that were each better than that trash.

Hell just Brooklyn pick next year is better, and you still keep jaylen brown and 2017 pick.
