2016 NBA Season Notes/Info

Man this issue with Cousins is being investigated by the NBA now. The Editor/VP of the Bees has written another damning article about the whole incident including a footage:

My bet is Cousins is getting traded soonish. There is no way he's back in Sactown with the bad blood between the local media and potential backlash from local fans about this incident.

The trade isn't going to happen because he spends his energy on fighting with journalists.
He'll get traded because his contract expires in 2018 or he has a player option then.
The team as a whole is going nowhere, so you just try again and get assets.

Well yeah of course it's a combination of all those things. This latest scuffle could be the straw that broke the camel's back is what I'm saying.



That Sac. Bees' editorial piece said 1 thing that stood out to me, the editor said that this team is Sacramento's team not only by name, but also because the taxpayers have literally 'paid' to build the new Golden1 Arena, and so to me the stake is higher than ever before there.

I'm pretty sure Vivek doesn't care that public money played a role. If he lives out his welcome, he still owns the building. He can move to the other end of the world and sell the team+arena that the taxpayers built for him.
And if he doesn't own it, then he'll sell the rights to have dibs on every calendar date and he's probably not paying any rent anyways in this case.

Why would he do all that when it's easier to just trade Cousins?



It makes no sense. Cousins doesn't want to play there, we know that for a fact. The team has failed to make the playoffs every sing year since he's been drafted.



Both camp should just move on.

Human beings do not act rational 100% of the time. Trading him can cause different backlashes.

So if you were the Kings GM what would you do?

Yeah, Kings will trade Cousins and rebuild (if such a fail franchise can manage that). That's much more likely than the owner throwing a hissy fit and selling.

Then again, I hope he sells, because he's terrible.
