According to Woj the Kings don't want to pay Cousins. Does anyone think Cousins will stay with the Kings long term if they don't give him the extra money the new CBA allows them to? They may wait until the offseason, but they are at the point where you trade a star that is going to leave anyway. He's only got 1 year left after this one.
For those looking at the 5/210 number, that's not the number the acquiring team can offer apparently according to Yahoo!

It would be closer to 5/170-175

Yeah, the new DPE can only come from the team that drafted you unless you got traded while on your rookie deal. So if the Kings aren't going to give Cousins the DPE then they are in the same boat that we've previously been in for star FAs, you have a meaningless extra year and only a slightly higher number for the annual raises. So there isn't much financial incentive to stay with the Kings, and not only are they not a winning team, their relationship has been rocky and chaotic at best. You have to think Cousins is out the door without being paid to stay.
