According to kentucky sports radio Cousins was told he would land on either of these 4 teams Charlotte,Orlando,Boston,Dallas.The source said the talks where ongoing but Cousins expects to have a deal done soon.

You guys easily can make the best offer especially if you were willing to give up your lottery pick.

*Im trying to find the link but I got it from RealGM.

Cousins to Charlotte doesnt make sense. Bobcats cant trade their 1st this year (technically owed to the bulls), best offer they could give is Detroit's pick plus maybe Henderson? They arent giving up MKG, and I doubt they trade Kemba with the way he has been playing.

If thats the best offer Sac can get then I'm not sure why they would trade him

I checked out the NBA Trade Machine and this is really all we could offer

Byron Mullens, Gerald Henderson, 1st Round Pick (from Detroit)

Byron Mullens, Bismack Biyombo, 1st Round Pick (From Detroit)

At 22 years old, the acquisition of Cousins is almost like spending a draft pick anyway.

Kemba-Henderson-MKG-2013 pick-Cousins.

That's a heckuva young core.

Also I saw that you said trade the 2013 pick, I'd leave that out of there because Cousins is not worth possibly the number one overall pick in the draft. I say give them Detroits which will probably find it's way to them in 2015.

we can't trade our 2013 pick. Technically it belongs to Chicago

I'm talking about the pick we got from Detroit in the BG8 trade.

Here are our outstanding trades...

Outgoing:

Bulls receive the Bobcats' 2012 first-round pick (top 14 protected in 2012, top 12 protected in 2013, top 10 protected in 2014, top 8 protected in 2015, unprotected in 2016) (Tyrus Thomas Trade)

Rockets receive the Bobcats' 2013 second round pick. (via OKC and Boston) (Byron Mullens Trade)

Spurs receive the Bobcats' 2016 second-round pick (top 55 protected, or extinguished) (Theo Ratliff Trade)

Incoming

Bobcats receive the Blazers' 2013 first-round pick (top 12 protected in the 2013, 2014, and 2015, and unprotected in 2016) (Gerald Wallace Trade)

Bobcats receive the Pistons 2013 first-round pick (lottery protected in 2013, top 8 protected in 2014, top 1 protected in 2015, and unprotected in 2016) (Corey Maggette Trade)

We can trade away incoming picks so I say give them Detroit's because that one won't be seen until 2015 as where the Bobcats might have an opportunity for two picks in the lottery with Charlotte slotted at four and Portland slotted at 15.

Right now, the Bobcats would currently hold the fourth pick (unless the balls bounced are way) and the 15th pick.

Trade away Mullens, Hendo, and the Detroit pick for Cousins then draft a stud shooting guard with the fourth pick and power forward depth with the 15th pick and we're playoff bound.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?

      If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit?

      Bruce can't be that. Darnold can make a ton of throws that Bruce flat out can't. Darnold's physical talent doesn't handcuff your play calling like Bryce's does. You just have to protect Darnold from himself and not ask too much of him in terms of putting mental pressure on him. That's when he cracks and turns into a turnover machine. Bryce limits the hell out of your play calling. Deep outs? Pretty much eliminated from the playbook. Sideline throws to the wide side of the field when you're on the hash marks? Woah boy. That's begging for a pick six. Throws more than about 10-15 yards beyond the LOS? We're basically having to scheme up those shots to come on 3rd or 4th and short when the D is expecting a run or a quick hitter. 3rd and long is basically a "gain a few yards to hopefully flip this field position eith this upcoming punt" play call versus trying to actually move the sticks. The opposing defense is essentially treating the entire field like its the red zone because Bryce can't really threaten them vertically outside of scheming up deep shots on traditional power running downs... something they'll likely be on the lookout for next year after studying up on us doing that with success down the stretch last year.
