Would you trade for Cousins if the Kings don't demand CJ or Dame?

    So how many more games do we give Turner until he's officially the forum whipping boy?

    Turner looks like he doesn't know what he's doing. He's forcing everything he does right now. Henderson just played his game. I knew I was going to miss his high flying dunks and his veteran leadership, but I didn't think I'd miss it this much.

    I thought overall Henderson was our best perimeter defender last season. Turner has just been average.

    Henderson is shooting 40% from 3 and 52% from 2 this year, he's a lot better for a 1/3rd of the price

    Crabbe?

    Back to Turner and Layman. They have both had the exact same amount of time with the team. They have both had the exact same amount of time to "learn the system." And Layman looks WAY better than Turner. Layman is so comfortable on the court. Turner seems to be searching for ways to hurt the team. It's not just turnovers or missed shots, but he makes some bad decisions that don't show up in the box score. Obviously, he was a good fit in Boston so let's send him back there. He's not going to work here.

    Rose- Colored Logic: Winning close, pressure filled games early will pay dividends later on in the season when we are making our playoff push.

    I think it's because Leonard looked good against Cousins last year so Stotts wanted to go back to that. Plus, Vonleh hasn't been playing very well and Layman has earned real minutes.

    Evan Turner has a TO% of fucking 23.5 :blink:

    To put that into some perspective, Ray Felton's lone year here, where he was horrible with turnovers, his % was 19.5

    Have you changed your tune on him yet? He's leading the league in worst +/-. He was a team worst -6 tonight. And Layman, who has been with the team just as long as Turner, already looks more comfortable on the court. Turner is a bad fit. Period.

    I gave up on Turner. If Cj can make the turn he did in 8 games, why can't turner in 10? if he ends up being great then dope but I don't see it with this team

    In the post-game interview, Cousins was seen wearing a baseball cap with a rose on it.

    Cousins trade to the Rose City: imminent!
