Title: i have a dream ...
Post by: ForexPirate on February 16, 2013, 07:14:28 AM
Had a dream that Danny traded KG for Blesoe and Jordan and traded Jordan in part of a three team deal to Sacramento for Cousins and Tyreke Evans.

The second oart of the dream was trading PP and RR to Lakers for Dwight and someone else to balance the trade.

So was that a dream or a nightmare.

If we can resign Howard it would give us this team ...

Howard/Cousins/Wilcox
Cousins/Sullinger/Bass
Green/Evans
Bradley/Evans/Lee
Bledsoe/Terry/Lee

That's a lot of assets.  What are your thoughts ... dream or nightmare?

Cousins isn't a power forward in this league.

Especially not in the east.

Nightmare, Howard has been a nightmare for LA.

I'd ask the fans, owners and coaches of Orlando and LA if Howard is a dream or nightmare.

Cousins isn't a power forward in this league.

Especially not in the east.

Cousins could probably play the four in the right circumstances but alongside Dwight Howard isn't that situation. Cousins needs a Marc Gasol type. Someone who can play away from the paint and allow Cousins to beat up smaller PFs in the post. Dwight won't do that. He'll take up all the space in the paint and force Cousins to shoot long jump shots. Bad situation offensively.

Cousins' speed and mobility defensively would be similar to a Boozer or Z-Bo type (@ PF).
