Unless DCuz is a supreme headcase, i'd fire Karl so much faster then even contemplating trading cousins. Kings are a mess and if the article is true that the franchise wouldn't want picks, but instead veteran talent for cousin... well.. then welcome to the treadmill.

If your management is on record saying they won't trade him then why hire a coach that wants him gone? If all these reports are true then that franchise is a mess.

This is a real mess if the owner, GM and coach aren't on the same page.

Once they fired Malone we all knew how bad that office is.

the article says the kings want to win, so they'd be looking for veteran players instead of picks :crazy: :crazy: :noway: ... the 2nd would probably have to be moved.. gives some credence to the la/orlando/kings rumour

Kings fans should want Karl's head on a stick if this Woj bomb is true.

We prefer keeping Cousins over him.

Pure speculation here but:

The Lakers could trade Clarkson, Randle, and #2 pick for Cousins

Package around Smart, Sullinger, and two first round picks for Cousins

Vucevic, Payton, and #5 pick for Cousins

Horford, Teague, and #15 pick for Cousins

I imagine if the Kings actually put Cousins on the market, 2/3s of the NBA GMs would be fielding calls to the Kings.

I wonder who Karl wants to bring in to replace cousins?
