We have also inquired about Paul George


We might be leaking the Cousins info to put pressure on the Pacers to get serious on PG. We'll see, should be fun

Not much. Even if you stretched Asik and dumped Ajinca in the Cousins trade, you'd have so little cap space you'd be close to that point where you're better off keeping the MLE. So the team would be the useful players they have now, plus Cousins, plus using the MLE on one of DMo/Jones or using the MLE to take a shot on another SF.

@WojVerticalNBA: (1 of 2) Agent Jarinn Akana tells @TheVertical: "We met w/ Vlade and ownership and they assured us and DeMarcus that he's not being traded."

Can't decide if that is true or just the kiss of death. Seems like that is always said about guy before a trade or firing.

That's the best possible outcome. We would have our big 3 with Holiday, Davis, and Cousins. If Demps pull this off, he will be viewed so differently.

I'm not even worried about role players at that point as Demp is good at finding solid role players.

We aren't gonna do either. We are releasing info to help pacers with PG and to show what the Market for boogie is.

And I find it surprising that Vlade, Vivek and the minority owners all agreed on something at the same time. That never happens.

Again, I'm told discussions of deal for Cousins to NOLA is:
Tyreke (as salary filler), Hield and two #1's (2017/2019 w/no protection).

per Fletcher Mackel

Sacramento trades cousins now, the 2017 pick is useless because it makes us better.

They wait until this offseason, we have a top 3 pick and they hit the jackpot.
