Cousins to Blazers?

[Jade Falcon]

Woah there

I'm sorry, but the sheer amount of bullshit that I have to put up with on this forum with a select few idiots claiming I say shit that I've never actually said...is staggering. I'm not going to put up with it.

He's thinking of someone else, and he needs to think carefully before he posts bullshit like that. It really gets on my nerves; it's fucking juvenile.

I really like our team, with the exception of Meyers and Turner. But fuck, who DOESN'T like those two?

 

[Trackjack]

Anyway it can't happen until Jan. 15 so until I don't believe anything.

Part of me wants to start a site called "MasterClickBait.com"

I would want no part of the traffic you'll see at that site

I like Turner.

For lack of a better word, he's really turned it around.

When it comes to rumors...people play fantasy football here so a Blazer rumor is more interesting to me ....I don't have a problem with it at all....what's the difference between this article link or our own trade for Boogie thread except the fact that Blazersedge just steal our posts? Then we become the rumor mill.

I give credit when due: he seems to finally have gotten his chemistry going with the team. I like how he fits in.

But I would be lying if I said his start here did not leave a bad taste in my mouth. Because it did.

Wait. so one thread labeled "OT" for our Fantasy Football league compares to a new thread every day labeled "CJ for Whiteside", "Cousins to Blazers?", "Trade rumor I'm hearing"? Okay.

A Blazer rumor would be interesting to me too.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

We could have a Fantasy cousins thread.

That's all it is but football actually has it's own forum...and this is a basketball forum..OT is OT.....never understood why you don't just use the football forum on sportstwo.com...they've got em all....Ducks forum...Baseball...Mixed martial arts...it's not a big deal to me personally because I just drop in and heckle football mostly anyway

How about a Cousins forum

Wait

I'm impatient

I'm an old fart...keep up teenybopper!!

I clicked the link. The moment shit started popping up on my screen, I closed out.

Homey don't play that.

My Chrome browser crashed about 10 seconds after opening.

Works great on Android running Chrome Canary. These sites are awesome! I spend hours a day seeing which NBA players have the hottest wives. Finding out which childhood stars are now transgender, or are the hottest, or uglyist years later.... Man, the list goes on and on.... Thanks Dust!!!

How about a Cousins forum

There are no coders left. They are all busy building the wall which will defend the Trump forum from Hillary and Bernie immigrants.

 

[RR7]

Ignoring for a moment the validity of the site and rumor, I struggle to see why the pelicans would move hield in that deal. For us, Crabbe, Leonard,Plumlee, Aminu for Cousins and asik? Absolutely!
Lillard/CJ
CJ/turner
Harkless/turner
Davis/vonleh
Cousins/asik

I'm happy with that.

Yeah, if Portland could get Cousins that cheaply, it'd be a no-brainer. Davis and Cousins in the front court would upgrade the defense and Turner could platoon with McCollum for offense/defense possessions at the ends of games and it would be a pretty good defensive group.

 

[TBpup]

For starters, Crabbe and Leonard can't be traded until January 15th so this rumor would have to stand strong for a loooong time in NBA rumor discussion.

So for Portland:
Leonard, Plumlee, Aminu Crabbe ---- for ---- Cousins Asik.

2 starters and your 6th and 8th/9th player for perhaps the best center in the league and a bad contract. I actually like that. Cousins (and I'm assuming Vonleh up front) give the Blazers the type of big front line that caused the Warriors fits last year when they played the Thunder. Adams/Kanter/Ibaka were a nightmare for them and had them down 3-1 before Durant/Westbrook started playing hero ball and Westbrook asked the coach to sit Kanter.

More balanced, and certainly more interesting....and most importantly, I'm betting they would be better.

The cringe hurts.

 

[BlayZa]

someone must REALLY want to get rid of someone bad to take Meyers after what he's shown this season.

in saying that, id pull the trigger in a heartbeat.

win/win for me.

 

[KingSpeed]

just for the record, The Vertical says it makes no sense to trade Boogie until the offseason.

Why?

I can't for the life of me figure out why anyone would still want to trade for Cousins. Total asshole and a cancer.

He has the Kings only a couple games out of the playoffs right now.

For starters, Crabbe and Leonard can't be traded until January 15th so this rumor would have to stand strong for a loooong time in NBA rumor discussion.

Long time? Less than four weeks away!

I firmly believe that those 3 for 1 and 4 for 1 trades almost always favor the team getting the one stud back. Like the Scottie Pippin trade.

Similarly, trading for a disgruntled player doesn't always work, but it's usually worth the gamble. I lived in Sactown when they traded for Chris Webber. C Webb was not desirable around then, a malcontent at Golden State, and he did not even want to report to Sac after the trade. In the end however, he flourished and says it was the best thing that ever happened to him.

I agree it's not a long time in real life but for an NBA rumor, 4 weeks in an eternity. Not saying it can't happen but typically discussions are usually that far out in front of a trade. Next time you're in town, we should meet for a drink. You are obviously a huge Blazer fan and it would be fun sharing some of the off the record stuff.

I'll be in town for game on the 26th.

Webber wasn't playing for Golden State. He was played for the Washington Bullets. They traded him for Mitch Richmond. Webber did not want to go Sacramento but it ended up working out. Kinda.

Are you in the skybox with us?!

Or....Thank you Tim Frazier!

Hopefully you can, my man! Would love to meet you.

We should all get together BEFORE the game. I land at PDX at 11:38am and am just hanging out til the game starts.
