We need to trade Cousins, but have to wait for his value to improve...

[JasonThompsonFan]

here is what someone posted on another board. Probably just something he thought up and reported it as if it was "breaking news" He wrote it yesterday.

"The Lakers, Celtics, and Kings are reportedly very close to a trade that would send Francisco Garcia and Demarcus Cousins to the Boston Celtics.Marcus Thorton, Chuck Hayes,Thomas Robinson,and Aaron Brooks to the Los Angeles Lakers. Pau Gasol, Avery Bradley, Jason Terry,Jared Sullinger, and two future first round picks from the Celtics to the Sacramento Kings.**The only reason the deal has not happened yet is because the Lakers are being reluctant to accept the offer"

Nice. Why don't we just trade franchises with the Celtics?

I will be joining you if the Kings don't, at the very least, get Rondo, a pick, and a young player. That is pathetic for Cousins and Garcia. Our best player and cap room for an old vet, unproven rookie, overrated Green, and Lee.

I'm not sure what my "last straw" is with this franchise, but I'm getting pretty close to it if this trade goes down. Watch DMC go to Boston and flourish while we sit back and shake our heads.

Ridiculous.

One can only hope...

^glad im not the only one feeling like this.


lets pray to god the "rumors" from the Kings are true that DeMarcus is not available

[macadocious]

If a trade like this does come down. I am 100% sure it's a Major League move, Maloofs did it to drive away the last remaining fans so they can move.

I'm told (again) there's "no chance" DeMarcus Cousins is being traded to the Boston Celtics

This better be the case. Why would we want a bunch of average bench players and two guys on the verge of retirement? Thats the type of trade you make when you are close to a championship team and need a few vets to push you over the edge. Not when you aren't even in the discussions as a playoff team.

[LWP777]

There is no chance of this happening. Even the Kings aren't stupid enough to trade DMC for garbage like that.

Here's a wonderful trade that a Rockets fan posted giving his best attempt at a reasonable way of acquiring Cousins.... enjoy.

Don't challenge the Maloofs... I don't know, I have a very bad feeling about it. I'm afraid we are going to do something really really stupid. And if a trade like that goes down, I'll be done with this franchise.

The starting point for any Celtics deal for either Evans or DMC should be Rondo. If the conversation doesn't go there, hang up the phone. We know Ainge covets both of them but the Kings are clearly only dangling one. And despite the Celts improved play and constant call of "look at last year" this team is 6th best, tops, in that league (they'd get shelled by MIA, ATL, NYK, and CHI). If Boston is looking to rebuild, we can help. My deal: Evans, Garcia, Thomas (perhaps plus a future pick) for Rondo and Wilcox. BOS gets a big expiring and a young PG. Evans, should they resign them, gives them a nice backcourt with Avery Bradley, Lee, Terry, and Thomas. I don't think this deal is any more far-fetched than the stupid deal posted earlier on BleacherReport, clearly by a L*kers fan.

I love twitter when it comes to trade talk, it's hilarious!
