His potential and track record in OKC could land us a solid player. I don't want to trade him either but if it means landing a big name big man who can help us to get to another level, it's sad, but he'd need to be traded.Wrong. Our biggest trade chip is Rondo. After that probably the combo of Avery Bradley and Sullinger, because they are on short money. Then Green.

I'd counter it with this.Melo, Green + 2 first rounders forBoogey + Salmons or Garcia
There is no way the Kings give us Cousins without getting Bradley plus other assets or getting Rondo. It won't happen. I'm also amazed at how people think we can get great value for Green right now. The guy is on the very beginning of a bad contract, came back from open heart surgery, and has shown nothing to generate any interest in teams to want to trade for him. We are stuck with him for a while, and I believe holding on to him and hoping his value goes up and/or having him actually play the way we expected and take over for Pierce next year is the best option. Trading him for an old Prince, or 3rd string wings like Webster or Barnes is just a huge waste. Our best options for a deal this year are Bass plus Lee and Melo or picks, or Bradley. That's the reality, anything else is fantasy.

We would in essence be dumping Green for lesser talent that in many cases Doc would never even put on the floor.
