Call me a homer a thousand times

What? Lets look at just a few players, Tinsley, Howard, Steven Jackson and Boris Diaw. If anything, they are willing to take on risky talent and they seem to have a decent history of making it work.

Cousins is a completely different case. Those players had to behave. Cousins would have leverage to behave like a baby. Or at least think he does.

I don't see it.

If the question is Jefferson or Cousins, it's Cousins a million times. Cousins would at least have some market value and it's believable he could still improve substantially.

Reading this thread makes me feel like I've intercepted coded communications in the North Sea, but I can't figure out if those doing the communicating are Soviet submarine commanders or drunken Norwegian fishermen. I'll be in St. George next weekend and I sure hope this conversation makes more sense by the time I get there.

This post made me laugh out loud.

Watcha doin down in St George Joseph?

Here is the real question for me. Would I rather keep Jefferson around, or trying something different with Cousins?

For me this is simple, it is Cousins. With anything worthwhile there is risk involved. Cousins is a higher risk but the potential reward could be significant.

I'd be surprised if anyone disagrees with you on this.

Also for whatever this is worth, Kanter could use a situation like Sacramento (infinity minutes) and Sacramento could use a young talent like Kanter (a sweetheart with a huge *****).

I can't disagree with that. I was more referring to KOC, Rigby and Gail. The rest or just pawns to those three anyway.

You honestly think Rigby is more than a stuffed suit? I didn't think that anybody other than Gail bought that guy's act.

I guess we will have to agree to disagree.

Scorp Jazz would like to have a word with you.

This is all very preliminary. Very.
I'm going to be with Cuz again on Saturday and hope to know more details about what's going on.. As well as make a pitch, again.

Again, NOTHInG is Tuesday. Recheck the thread.

So you are saying that a swap like that makes sense?

Getting confirmation from high level Norwegian sources that Ty Corbins job IS in jeopardy if we land Cousins.

Don't quote me on this but my take from it is that Corbin's input won't be asked for on a Cousins deal. I did NOT take this to mean that Corbin WOULD be fired if we land Cuz, just that he doesnt necessarily have a seat at the decision table.

**** me things are moving fast. It all comes down to Tuesday.
