Waiting for Danny Ainge to Pull the Trigger on that Demarcus Cousins trade...

[Raquinotj]

If cousins is my target I would just wait until the off season where I can work out a sign and trade and use less assets, which I'm sure the pelicans would be down for rather than lose cousins for nothing.

We don’t have the Contracts to match a Max unless we Include Kyrie/Horford/Hayward.

That Lakers pick is gonna turn into Ayton or Bamba and the Celtics will have another dynasty

The Lakers would be picking 8th or 9th currently

How do you figure ?

S&T for a unrestricted free agent, you don't have to match dollar for dollar in the trade. Just have to send a asset back.

Next Year. I’m talking this year.

You just beat GS and are 14-2 ? Can you wait and have some faith in your team ?

I think we will end up being in the bottom 5 at the end of the season.

 

[William F. Russell]

Warriors would sweep the Celtics as currently constructed

Wishful thinking.

 

[HiphopRelated]

I'd take that for Whiteside though

 

[2Quik4UHoes]

Nah, leave Cousins for the Wiz or Lakers. Celtics should go after Marc Gasol to fill their cac quota.

So many fools in this thread. Ya Demarcus really out in New Orleans killing the chemistry, that's all he's done this season. Do y'all even watch games?

im saying. how does gs defend kyrie and dmc at the same time?

2 first rounders for an expiring contract

 

[hayesc0]

Why would the Celtics do this?

Have you watched the games this season?

Also didnt Brad Stevens say he didnt want Cousins last year?

 

[William F. Russell]

Yup. It was Stevens who told that to Ainge. After that, Ainge never bothered pursuing Cousins.

IF it falls between 2-5. Lakers are looking like a Middle of the pack lottery team. They probably fall between 6-10. Other teams like ATL/CHI/DAL/SAC/(BK with all their injuries) have better chance of landing there but those ping pongs can always bounce our way.

our december schedule....

Sometimes losing a player for nothing is beneficial.
