They traded Cousins and WCS instantly morphs into Cousins just to spite the pick swap.

They might win tonight, but it won't last. Shows we can't rely on the KANGZ though. They always do what you don't expect. Which is why we're also tanking.

Yep, did you know they beat Boston without Boogie! WHOA!

(Don't look at their record without Boogie, ever. There's totally nothing to see there, don't look it up, seriously, don't!)

For those of you who are pissed off about the way things went down yesterday, this is exactly why BC traded Noel away for peanuts while keeping Okafor. He really wants another top 5 pick and knows he can't rely on the Kings or the Lakers to do it for him.

As far as the tank/picks goes, the biggest event of the trade deadline was Lou Will to Houston. He was by far the Lakers best player this year and kept them in a lot of games when the rest of the team was shooting like 31%. Lakers are my odds on favorites to be 2nd worst from here on out, which makes us unlikely to keep the pick.

Mavs also lost Deron Williams for nothing, Magic keep torpedoing themselves, and Wolves and Knicks are one shut-down player away from never winning games. Starting to worry we end up with like the 9th pick and nothing else. Can't do nothin if that happens but it'd be disappointing not to nab one of the top-7 PG/SF prospects in this unusual draft.

Lakers finishing second worst = 44% they fall out top 3. So it's not a sure thing they keep the pick.

And it's not that an unprotected 2018 pick is that bad of a gift.

How many times have we seen teams play above their heads when they lose a great player, or change coaches or whatever simply on adrenaline?

They will crumble in time.

Kings down 12-0 to start the game. Back to reality we can hope.

Sac loses. Hopefully it's the start of a nice long losing streak.

I'm sure they are having chemistry issues right now, but still I have a feeling they may soon be having buyer's remorse with Cousins.

Good news for NO is it's hard to really have buyers remorse when you didn't pay very much.
