If the Kings wanted to trade Cousins for Mozgov, I'd be totally cool with that. At least Cousins only has 2 years on his deal.

I like George...that would be cool to get him (especially for Artest) but you gotta question the concept of drafting a SF....shelling out crazy-big money and a long contract for Deng....only to go get George and give him his 38-40 minutes a night.

The rest of the list does nothing for me. I was a big Milsap guy...but I think his best days are behind him now. We should be looking for a SG now. We have our young Core at PG, SF, and PF...and we just dropped a bus-load of money on Mozgov...signed Black for $6+ a year, and drafted a Center. I think the thing to do is just chill, and when a legit SG becomes available, grab him. Just dont go settling for "ok" - level guys (like I feel we did with Mozgov and Deng). Wait it out, and only get someone if they are really good.

I don't see them trading for any one them tbh. Paul George is who you hope Ingram can become and Boogie while great is a good fit for the current set of talent and they'd be better off waiting for him in free agency.

The most I'd offer in a package for boogie would be Mozgov, Randle and if we retain the top 3 pick but that's not going to get it done at all.
