Ah, Boogie Cousins, just the kind of player Coach Gentry likes

Thinking about it a bit more, the 3 asset hoarding teams, Boston, Denver, Philly no longer have center as a big need with Horford, Jokic and Embid. If they are out on Cousins, and his crazy scares away some of the other would be suitors, Buddy and picks may not be a bad bid.

yep. Its such a high risk/high reward imo. But at this point, frick it, lets do something else crazy while we have AD here for the next 4 years.

I would be sad to see Buddy go. But man, I'd help pack his bags if we got boogie in return

Supposedly Indy hadn't even been listening to offers on George in the past because they were expecting new CBA rules like we saw. He'd have to tell them in no uncertain terms that he's leaving for them to trade him.

big time. We really do need an all star backcourt player to pair with AD. But the thought of having cousins and AD on the floor together also makes me very moist. That would be a top 5 frontcourt of all time. No bullshite.

I don't think we have the firepower for PG. As you said, the pick/young talent hoarding teams don't have glaring needs at C anymore and may not be as willing to risk Boogie turning a lockeroom toxic. Every team could use a two way wing who can score and shoot. BOS, PHI, DEN would outbid us.

Looks like it's Buddy, the 2017 first (gotta be unprotected I would assume) and one more 1st rounder that we're offering.
