@MasonGinsberg: Let's say the Kings offered the Hornets Cousins + filler for Anderson. If you could be guaranteed Cousins wouldn't go crazy, would you bite?

Well Anderson has looked awesome while having a favorable contract. It would really depend on the extra pieces involved.
It would suck though since I really like Anderson.

I'll say no simply because Ryno has 3 years remaining at $7.5m/yr, which is an insanely good contract. Cousins is restricted next year and I think someone will offer him more than that. I do like the idea of the hypothetical AD/saneCousins more than Ryno/AD, simply because I think AD has a much better shot at drastically improving his jump shot/attacking the basket game than he does doing dirty post work. He's been fantastic this year but he does get pushed around quite a bit.

If we some way got cousins and a capable SF then I could understand; however, Anderson should be very valuable to our team when ever we are fully healthy.
If Cousins calmed down and bought into the team and we also added a decent SF then it would possibly be worth the risk.

Who are you guys saying yes? Absolutely frick no.
I don't want that trash near our young players.
You can't guarantee he won't go crazy. And Anderson is locked up on a good contract. Despite his POS reputation, Cousins is going to want to get paid. Large.

Dealing Anderson for him would just open another hole on our team

We don't have strong enough veteran leadership for an idiot like him anyway.

If he didn't go crazy having Davis and Cousins playing next to each other would be solid.
It would really have to involve a lot more talent coming in to involve Anderson as he is a major talent without issues. Anderson appears to be the anti-Cousins.
What if we offered a protected pick and some other pieces outside of Gordon, Anderson, and Davis? The Kings have really killed any trade value he has anyways.

Yeah, I'd give up filler for cousins and even a top 5 protected 1st, but he's way too risky to move a core piece for.

True but they want to get rid of him and I guess you could throw a first rounder in there too maybe they would take it then
