    But if we were interested in a Cousins sign and trade then we should be going after Kawhi or Love.

    But this doesn’t make any sense. That “roadblock” would’ve been there before talks would’ve even started.

    Cousins agent clearly wants Nurkic to stay in Portland. Sounds like Neil wanted it to happen and by proxy, "Team Cousins" wouldn't let it happen.

    I wonder if we go after Kawhi, Love, and Griffin now. Sounds like Neil is ready to trade CJ what with Curry joining the club.

    Maybe he's been saying CJ is untouchable all along to keep his value up. He did the same with Eric Gordon. He promised Eric Gordon to his face that he wouldn't be traded and then Neil shipped him away for Chris Paul. Crossing fingers if it means we get an All Star forward.....

    Probably that there is no truth to it.
    Easy way for Neil to make it sound like he’s swinging big when he knows he has no chance at that move

    Because Nurkic's agent wouldn't have any of it since Nurkic wasn't going out in the trade. So they would be both on the same team and Nurkic (or Cousins even) wouldn't get the minutes they deserve since they would be sharing. Basically agent looking out for the best for both guys. Plus he knows his only path to decent money is POR right now. Nurkic isn't getting paid on the free agent market this summer if we cut him loose.

    Well Kawhi makes us a contender if he's healthy. But what do you think about Griffin?
