But we don't have that first. :(

I think they'll still find a way if that's what both Wall and Cousins want this offseason.


A 2018 1st would be probably be the pick dealt.

I would trade Porter for Cousins (w/o a pick). That would give us 3 big time offensive talents. I think Oubre has shown enough to give me confidence that he could grow into the starting 3 role in time.

I agree with everything you're saying and would do that deal in a heartbeat- and I think sac would've too. I fear we may have missed our shot at getting him that cheap- but as CCJ says, if he wants to be here and John wants him here, there's a chance.
