He wants out so bad, Danny still has a shot at him if he wants

If Brown shows out in SL and the beginning of the season then yes I could see him being shipped over in a package for Cousins. We need that young, athletic, promising prospect that has shown just enough bright spots to have promise for the future. With that we could pair him up with picks/players for him, but I highly doubt it happens unless he literally holds out of playing because he's done playing for that garbage franchise. What a terrible pick.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the Kings do a classic Kings move and traded Marquiss Chriss (a guy a lot of people saw as the #3 pick and the most upside in the draft) to trade down to #13 or something?  The Suns were debating between Bender and Chriss at #4 and ended up with both of them. 

They still appear to be one of the two worst run franchises in the NBA.  It's amazing how consistent they are.

For me this was the "head scratching" draft event of the evening. Why they drafted another center is beyond belief. (Not including their second pick Skal Labissiere is ALSO projected as a center.)

They already have 3 centers on the team signed for this coming year.

The Kings are the worst run professional organization in sports today.

Just who is running this organization...Danny please take note.

I dont think the Chriss stock was legit, The Suns are the only one interested in him among the top 8. Analyst pegged him as a Celtics pick, but I dont think Ainge is interested in lazy rebounder and bad defender despite his athleticism, we know Ainge values motor and defensive chops so them putting Chriss on #3 at mocks was baffling. If Ainge wanted upside there's always Brown who was safer because he plays D.

Its no secret that for as talented as Cousins is.. They cannot build a successful team around him.  They are now preparing for Life After Cousins..

Let's pray that Cousins is simply dying to play for a great organization, and will force his way out to one. And then he turns out to be an ok guy when he gets there.

Unlikely, but man it would be great.

He was like C's fans expecting the high pick to go for a player that could help them now. He is tired of missing playoffs. He wants vet help. And he wants to do there by all reports.

Yes, they gave their #8 for 13 (Papagiannis), 28 (Labissiere), a second rounder in 2020 and the draft rights of Bogdanovic.

Papagiannis at #13 was one of the biggest surprises of this draft, I'm really interested to see how this goes.

They also traded Belinelli for #22 (Malachi Richardson).

EDIT: I forgot the link.

When does Cousins become a FA? Is he on a long term right now?

Strange that no one has suggested this yet... do the selections of Papagiannis and Skal not suggest they may be preparing to part ways with Boogie?

Signing that extension when he did was one of his weird decisions.

Just thinking that Dallas' little run to get in the playoffs cost the Cs a trade to #8 to pick up Poetl or Sabonis. Too bad.
