re: Pelicans trade for Demarcus Cousins! (And Omri Casspi)

What can we even offer them to make that happen?

Just enough to make Boston offer more...Except Cousins could be radioactive. I like the idea of Cousins until I see him play and am reminded that he really is a knucklehead. Last game AD was enjoying how easy it was to get under his skin. And AD is hardly that type of player, it's just so easy. If it happens I'll give it a chance but especially if we still have Uncle Al and his lax ways in charge, it really would be a recipe for disaster.

Also, I'm guessing the centerpiece of a trade package would be Holiday and picks. If so that's the 2nd potential Holiday deal that is coming out in rumors. Granted they're not the strongest, most well sourced rumors, but it could say they are starting to fear losing Holiday and are looking to move him. This rumor could be saying more about Holiday than Cousins.
