Anyone for Cousins?

If I knew Cousins could be a team player I'd trade almost anything for him. With a good coach and point guard he would easily by our go to scorer that we need

If he could be a team player that also tried more often than not, then Sac would not trade him, for anything. The guy has the talent but his personality makes winning almost impossible. Especially if he's the star of the team.

Until he pisses off his teammates by being an ***, screws with his coaches by being a moody POS. And stopped trying because he feels like he doesn't want to try. I don't want him on the team. I stand by my previous statement that I would quit following the team if he was on it. No player I've ever seen makes basketball less enjoyable to watch. I watched one kings/Jazz game this year, I intentionally avoided the others because I can't stand watching that guy **** the game up like he does. I'd rather trade to get Kanter back than get Cousins. I wouldn't trade Trey Burke for Cousins, unless they had a deal to send Cousins elsewhere already set to go.

I think the reason u avoid Jazz Kings games is because Cousins routinely destroys Gobert like no other player in this league can.

Why would that suck? It eliminates the Lakers from competing until he leaves. I'm all for it.

So the Lakers sign a couple of significant FAs and trade for Cousins, and they can't compete? Sorry, but I cannot agree. Like I said, put him in a decent situation, and we'll see a different player. King's management has been horrible.

Kinda weird to see anything but trash talk about him on here. I've always been of the opinion that if you put him in a decent situation, he'd become a winner. Unfortunately, I think it's almost impossible for anyone to trade for him without gutting their team, which means he may have to wait for UFA before he can silence his critics. Much as I hate the idea, I could see a trade to the Lakers and then they sign a significant FA or two. That would suck.

I disagree that a team would have to gut themselves to get cousins. Nosactown is still in a rebuild. I bet they would trade him straight up for a top 2 pick this year.

I think they would serious consider a trade for favors and a couple picks. Favors is still young and would replace some of loss of cousins numbers and the picks help with rebuild. I am sure the jazz would add burke.
 
As far as the father discussion was it takes both to raise great kids. It has been interesting watching my kids with the understanding that their mother has cancer. My 17 year has been so good to her. Always texting her and seeing how she is doing. Where my 16 year old daughter has grown a ton.

My daughter posted this on facebook

"As I go through my life I realize how much the lord tests our faith. This trial my family is facing is super hard for us all, but we're going to be so strong and come out even stronger. My mom, dad, Jake, and Britton are some of the strongest people I know and I love them all dearly. Thank you for being such perfect role models. And mom were gonna get through this together okay?"

There was a post on YAHOO about what a rotten teammate Cousins is. Did you know that Sacto is the only team that George Karl went to that he did not win and win big in a 35 year NBA coaching career. Even the legendary Jimmer was put back by Cuz behavior. Perhaps the Jazz could have him for a second round pick.

No, it's the whinning, lazy *** play. Shaking his head the ENTIRE time he's on the court. It's his mannerisms on the court that drive me nuts. Watching a guy with his talent be a lazy *** is annoying. His on court persona is that of a little whinny *** bitch that freaks out when he doesn't get every call. The guy has talent, I still don't think he'll ever win anything as the star of a team. Put him on a team with Lebron or somebody with a dominant personality like that and he has a very slim chance. If they don't kill each other before they get the chance. He's a lot like Dwight Howard is now, plays for himself and his own and to hell with the team. Can't win with a guy like that.

I have never hated watching any player play more than Cousins. Every time I see him play I am actively routing for somebody to punch him in the face. I will stop watching the Jazz if he's on the team. But since this team won't ever trade for a player like that I'm pretty safe in assuming that will never happen. And I'm glad for it.

I don't believe you can win with Cousins if he's your star player. So unless those significant FA's are Lebron, Westbrooke or Durrant then no I don't believe they can compete with him.
