How is another team going to rebound playing small ball against Cousins and Davis?

The Pels are about to live in the bonus. They will be shooting free throws early and often.

We were a top ten defense before this trade. We have good coaching on the defensive side of the ball.

Pathetic attempt to crap on the 2017 All Star MVP.

So CC wins the battle at the 4 spot Thursday right?? Because Ryno > AD23 in the match up?

Am I getting this right?

Boom if the Pels and CC meet up in the playoffs, how fast does CC dispose of them?

5 games. Pels prob won't even make the playoffs TBH. And if they do GSW will steam roll them in 4.

Davis is gonna have a lotta fun guarding stretch 4s 3' behind the three poor line. Talk about taking him out the game defensively



Good thing he has a center that can take his place and play defense at the rim.

And good thing basketball isnt' a game where you just play defense.

Nice try.

If other GMs around the league wanted cousins you don't get him for budman hield. Absolute head case. Locker room cancer. Zero leadership skills(and pair him with Davis ) Only the most desperate of GMs in the league would make that move.

No GM worth a salt would touch the guy.

Cousins could be great but he went to the weakest organisation in the league.... no one to keep him in line.

Wasn't all of those things said about Dwight...

Cousins is a top 10 player. Most teams in the league would love to add him. Not many teams has the assets to do it and the teams that want him (and are in contention) also want butler/George so they're holding out in hopes to get them instead

There is no doubt the Pelicans got significantly better yesterday.

ANY team could've put a similar package together. Just that no one else wanted him.

D12 lead his team deeeep in the playoffs in Orlando. Cousins not even comparable to 12.

The Orlando Magic with Howard and the Kings with Cousins is no way a fair argument.
Turkaglo and Rashard Lewis hitting 3's and creating the offense can't be understated enoug. Reddick and Courntey Lee for spot up 3's.
Jameer Nelson was playing good. They also had Marcin Gortat and was getting great minutes from Mikel Pietrus, who fell off the face of the NBA shortly after.

Who's the best player Cousins has played with, Rudy Gay. You realize in his 4th year in the league his team captains were Tyreke and Marcus Thornton? The Kings are and have been a shite show, which has been made more evident recently.

Well then why'd he even bring up Dwight then? typical peltard IMO.

Cousins coulda been had by any team. The most desperate team in the league gave up barely nothing to get him. Tells B all I need to know. Things will go good for the rest of this season. 50/50 shot to make playoffs. Next year when the honey moon is over you gonna see why no one else wanted him.

i don't disagree with any of this, and it's a bit of a concern, but when you think about it, if it doens't work out on the court, or even if he doens't resign, what did the Pelicans lose for this chance, Buddy Hield and a 1st round pick in the mid to late teens? Well worth it.

Boom you've proven how ignorant you are before this thread but you keep chugging along. I love it.

We have an 80% chance to make the playoffs now according to some sites. A team in front of us is going to tank. We are only 2.5 games back and we'd be the eight seed before this trade if holiday didn't miss those first eight.

Your weak arse 50/50 prognostication is idiotic.
