Sixers have a ton of picks to offer.

Yeah because that makes so much sense for teh Sixers to trade for him when they have Simmons/Embiid.

Sacramento has agreed to trade DeMarcus Cousins to the New Orleans Pelicans, league source tells @TheVertical.

 

[The Midnight]

Obviously Nola confident Anthony Davis could make Cousins stay & sign a new contract there.

 

[The Midnight]

Pelicans will make the playoffs. I'm very happy for Cousins to have finally gotten out of that garbage franchise.

Hell no they won't. The Nuggets are still a better team, especially if they compile some of their assets to make a trade.

Hey moron, just because he is playing PG on offense doesnt mean he is playing PG on defense. You think they are going to put Simmons on PG's? lmao.

 

[The Midnight]

I've stickied this thread. Hopefully some exciting news next day or so now that things are starting move.

You don't think he can defend 3's?

I guess we will see. They're 3 games behind Denver, and I personally think Cousins is one hell of a player. Now that they have the best front court in the league, I can see them catching up.

Yeah, he is great. Look at their wing rotation though. How fast can Davis/Cousins meld? Denver could still trade for a dude like Dragic. If they got Dragic it wouldnt even be a question if they finish ahead of New Orleans.

Why on Earth would anyone want a starting lineup of Cousins/Embiid/Simmons? Dear lord that is a terrible idea. Why are you arguing with me on this?

And no, I wouldn't want Ben Simmons guarding 3's. I'd want him guarding 4's and I'd want the teams opposing 4 man to guard him. That would be such an awful terrible lineup it's hilarious you think it's a legitimate idea.

You're a straight clown. Not even worth arguing with you.

good point. But spelling error in a sentence calling someone a moron isn't a great look.

Get ready to get busy.
