Cousins demands a trade!

DeMarcus Cousins

for

Al Jefferson

Saves us 10 million, rids the Kings of their problems, and gives them someone who they can pass it to, to stop the flow of their offense or better known as the BLACK HOLE. The opportunity to pair Cousins and Favors would be something special, and really would be a force to be reckoned with, for many years.

Why would anyone want this guy? Yeah, he has huge potential, but the guy has huge red flags and bitches way too much. Definition of cancer. He needs anger management.

Cousins is not a headcase. Not even close. He's immature compared to his peers and he throws temper tantrums at times, but he's not a thug and he's a great teammate. Just tends to wear his emotions on his sleeve. Calipari had no problem with him, at all. Cal's little girl still calls Demarcus at least weekly and refers to him as Uncle Demarcus. He's a good and fuuny guy. And a hell of a baller.

Sounds like you're splitting hairs, PKM. Either way, there were concerns about him, and here he is requesting/demanding a trade in the beginning of his 2nd year. That doesn't sit well with me.

Just the same, I'd take a gamble on him, considering Utah doesn't have much to lose at this point, and could just flip him if it didn't work out.

This.. not getting why people want to trade our best player for a immature thug. Yes, I called him a thug.
 
So what about Favors and Kanter? Or no longer important? O.o

Al jefferson is our best player? :eek:

All of a sudden it's perfectly clear why we only have 1 win this year.

No need to bash CJ, Raja, or Ty Corbin anymore folks. As long as Al Jefferson remains our best player, this team ain't going nowhere.

This team needs a shakeup, and Big Al makes 14 million. I'm pretty sure Dwight isn't coming, so Utah might want to start thinking outside the box. Tinsley and Howard have both had issues that would have made Jazz fans think we wouldn't consider them. That obviously wasn't the case.
 
Wow, I'd love to jump on this. Jefferson, Bell and Miles for Cousins. I think this may work too actually since the Kings are so far under the cap.

That said, the timing doesn't feel right. Bitching this early in the season is not a good sign, especially for a kid so young, who, if we traded for him, would be in an almost equally transition-like situation here. About 3-4 years from now and one or two teams later would probably be better. If we did get him though, I sure as hell wouldn't be upset.

I'll be honest.

If we can get Cousins for Al Jefferson, we'll be making off worse than the Lakers did with Gasol.

However, if Jazz fans think that Cousins is the missing link, then they haven't been watching this team.

We could have Shaq and Malone in their primes and still struggle to make the playoffs. This team's wings suck. Until they learn how to *gasp* pass and that *gasp* shots inside the painted area are better than jumpers, this team's offense will continue to be hit and miss.

For games that Hayward, Howard, and CJ's jumpers are on, we'll remain competitive. When they're off.... Expect blowouts.

There just aren't very many NBA teams that could survive playing CJ and Raja 20+ minutes. Realistically, both these players should be in the d-league.

Why do you think some people are such a big advocate of the Jefferson for Iguodala trade?
I definitely don't want Cousins, but Big Al for Iggy..... I'm on board! :-)
