Kings Trade Cousins to the Pelicans

We're talking about the Kings here, though. Last player(other than Boogie) they drafted and who actually became a good starting player for them was Kevin Martin. Everyone else has either been underwhelming, a bust, or was traded away to be a star elsewhere.

I mean, I'm not sure the Kings should be banking on being rescued by the same sh*t drafting skills that got them to where they need to be rescued in the first place.

IF they get a top pick in the 2018 draft they'll be rewarded for their futility.. They can keep waiting too the 2019 or 2020 pick can get swapped but there's potential stars in those classes too..
 
Ric Bucher: Source w/reasons Pels got Boogie: Cs (too focussed on getting Butler), Orl (could’ve had him, balked) & Phx (Sac didn’t want BKnight)
 
Okay.. done in the bathroom.

Cy is delusional.

Otherwise I was surprised to see the amount of positive talk in this thread.
I view most fans more like Cy.. so kudos to the rest of you guys for being able to think with your head outside your ***.

Cousins and Davis will be best frontcourt easily.
There is a question as to filling in around them.
 
Pels shopping Terrence Jones.
We should totally get in there.
Could be a cheap and adequate replacement for a separate Favors trade.

Not if they can hit the lottery and land inside that protected range... Only thing that'd be better than this is if somehow they could finagle drafting Fox or Monk (Fultz, Ball and Jackson work too obviously)..

They need Monk for shooting.
If they lose Holiday (which it's going to be losing either he or Cousins) I like Tim quite a bit.

Tim would be adequate with Monk, Cousins, and Davis.

Not sure how they get top 3? Oh, luck.. nevermind.
 
Solid post. Was going to post something similar. Hield and WCS plus two lottery picks isn't a bad start to a rebuild.

The fact that they think Hield is a great player would make me worried when it comes to their drafting in the lottery. Hield is a role player. They're really, really bad at drafting.
