Trade Idea Thread 15-16

Not a question of do you think the Kings should/shouldn't trade Cousins...

My question is: do you think Vlade has the balls to trade Cuz?

No but it has nothing to do with his balls. It's the fact he doesn't have poop for brains

Haha, that genuinely made me laugh out loud. Well played.

Orlando guy says he'd trade Tobias Harris/E. Fournier for Gay/Curry.

I'd do that. Harris is only 23 on a 4 year deal and EF fills a need.

I know this is not a trade etc.

Wanted everyone to know karl might be getting fired very shortly . No guarantee but players are pissed , ownership is pissed .
Could be happening source says they are on the brink of giving him the axe if anyone is interested we will see !

Not 100% sure I would let him go myself as it's a catch 22 situation IMO .

Shows instability and the inability to make good decisions. Vivek going back to back hiring coach before GM is a major cause of ALL THIS drama.

With that said I'm ready to let Big Nasty finish the season as interim HC and allow Vlade to hire his guy this offseason.

F*****CK.. Cousins is so good, Mclemore's a great prospect, I loved the Peja/Webber/etc. teams with Adelman.. If the Celtics didn't exist, I'd probably be a Kings fan.. But your organization is SO dysfunctional.. Firing Karl?? He never should have been hired, but firing him now just keeps the carousel spinning.. And there's a rumor Rondo is interested in Minnesota this summer..

[Andrew McCeltic]

I hate to kick you folks when you're down, but-

Cousins for David Lee, Jared Sullinger, Terry Rozier, James Young, BKN 16, BOS/DAL 16.. That's a hell of a reset button.

You go into free agency with:

Collison, Rozier
BMac/MarcB
Gay/Cassipi/Young
Sullinger (RFA)
WCS/Koufos

And TWO top 10 lotto picks- your own, which will be higher, and Brooklyn's.. Great shot at Simmons, Ingram, Dunn, Bender, etc., and space to pitch guys like Ryan Anderson on a team that finally has a direction..

Hire the right coach, give it a year or two..

Absolutely not, not in a million years any deal with Boston starts with Crowder/Smith and that's both not 1.
Otherwise I go to orlando and get Gordon, Vuc, and Hezonja.

Moreso it shows the inability to find a way to have the GM pick their own coach. I mean, this is still in a backwards way. I say, you know, do the common NBA practice thing first?

I don't know if Corliss has any set preference on how he likes his team to play, but he might just be open enough to listen to Vlade about focusing on the things that have worked rather than trying to cram an inappropriate system into the playbook.

Do you think Orlando would give those guys up, Vlade?

Do you think we're giving up a young player who just turned 25 who wants to be here who I think can be a top 5 player in a good situation?

He's not being moved IMO

Hornets fan, never been a fan of Karl......I am a fan of Cousins and would like to see him and the Kings turn things around......

Move #1 - fire Karl, name an assistant as interim

Move # 2 - trade with Chicago, send Gay and Rondo to the Bulls for Derrick Rose and Mirotic...
Rose
Belineli
Casspi
Mirotic
Cousins
Most dominate low post player with 3 floor spacers and a guard who can break down defenses......pick-n-roll with Rose and Cousins and 3 floor spacers would also be nasty

Move #3 - with former players Cousins, Rose, and WCS all on board, go after Calipari in the offseason

Move #4 - Not to make him GM or anything, but listen to advice from Calipari on draft night and in free agency, the man knows talent....maybe current Kentucky player Jamal Murray is available when the Kings pick this year.....either way he would add depth at SG/SF and turn things around

Rose / Collison
Belineli / draft pick or free agent
Casspi / draft pick or free agent
Cousins / Mirotic
WCS / Koufos

Not bad.... I've seen a lot worse that's for sure. Haven't given much thought to trading Gay for Rose tho.

Who do we want from the Bucks that's available? I'm only hearing Carter-Williams and Monroe's names. Sounds like Giannis, Parker, and Middleton are not available. Carter-Williams cannot shoot the basketball, but he is a good defender. If we got Ryan Anderson, maybe a lineup of Rondo/Carter-Williams/Casspi/Anderson/Cousins could work. But if we don't plug shooters in at the 3 and 4, that is Cousins triple-teams all day. Monroe presents a different issue. I like Cauley-Stein starting next to Cousins and think he's a better complement given his defense and athleticism. I guess it worked for Memphis somewhat with two post up bigs, but I have doubts that that's our answer.

Rondo and MCW would be a brutal back court combo shooting the ball, but if defense is the main concern, he's shown flashes of elite defense -- particularly D'ing up Stephen Curry.

Also if the Kings are concerned Rondo might leave (no clue whether that's the case) he'd be insurance. Either way Rondo would be a great player for him to watch closely and learn from.

[Jkam31]

Exactly!

Boston fans think there worthless picks thrown in with useless role players will get them a star. News flash nobody wants olynk of Sullinger or that stupid nets pick if it's outside the top 2 picks. Seriously there proposals are insulting.

Absolutely not, not in a million years any deal with Boston starts with Crowder/Smith and that's both not 1.

Hi Iv seen you have made a couple of post about Howard being traded, I'm curious if you know what's the latest on his situation? Thanks!
