    Define "young guys".
    Because if it's anyone not named CJ,DL,Plumlee or Davis then i don't really care.

    I don't think he is that kind of crazy. Cousins is the type of crazy that in the offseason he'd become a Demonologist and fight off Satan in Alabama.

    I wouldn't give too much for Cousins...but we really don't have that much to give! Outside of Dame and CJ our roster is not attracting a lot of envy from rival GMs.

    You REALLY need to stay the fuck outta my head... I don't know what kinda limitless pill you're taking, but it really hurts when you use your friggin' Professor X powers to know exactly WTF I'm thinking! :smiley-195517897341

    Cousins seems a lot like Randolph. Amazing talent but a head case and may need to be traded to get himself in line. Cousins is way to good to not take a chance on especially since if he doesnt' work out here his trade value will still be really high and we can easily retrade him.
    Would be awesome to trade for him on the draft and then get to call Durant up in FA and tell him "who else can give you two young players the caliber of Cousins/Dame to play next to".

    Durrant/aminu/harkless
    Gasol/davis/vonleh
    Cousins/Plumlee/davis

    Very good post. However, let me give the following review of his time in SacTown:

    year 1: Sac Sucks
    year 2: Sac Still Sucks
    year 3-5: Sac picks up mediocre vets, screws up drafts, fire good coaches, hires bad ones, and still suck.
    year 6: They're thinking about blowing up the team because they STILL suck.

    WHEN IS BOOGIE GONNA GET SOME LEGIT HELP? He's not (in Sacramento), and certainly not young legit help. Their personnel has sucked for 6 years. I'm sure that me and many of you would be completely frustrated by the situation. Yes, he's less mature, so he hasn't handled it well. Regardless, it's clear to me that the Excremento Kings management is to blame. Frankly, their fans deserve better.

    He does every time he plays in Portland too, he seems to have a good relationship with Blazers players.

    I think if anyone gets him, it's gonna be Washington.
    Beal for Boogie makes sense and Wall played with him in college.

    Would you move McCollum (+others) for Cousins if you knew signing DeRozan was a sure bet this offseason?

    Can we sign Derozan and then trade him for Cousins so we keep CJ?
