re: Sign and trade cousins for derozan

excellent points all around

Davis as a rover, like we saw this year, would help. tbh, i thought the Pels played defense about as well as could be expected given the rosters. i dont believe adding Cousins would make it as good. but if he does indeed juice the offense, then maybe it can just be good enough?


i do think trying to beat GS in a track meet is a tough ask. i get that that is who the Pels were post injury and they were successful, but GS thrives on that chaos and will be better at it. so maybe having Cousins slows the game down some from the absurd pace we saw at times.

If the Warriors want to let Steph play one on one with Cousins all game, then that's an easy way to get them out of their offense. If he wants to hit 10 3's from 5 feet behind the line in Cousins face, then fine, we lose, oh well.

it's interesting b/c the Pels actually were sort of taking that bet and not hedging or blitzing Curry PnRs most of the time. i think it shocked Curry to get looks he hasnt seen in about 4 years.
