Cousins is a beast and , I would take him on the Knicks for the max any day of the week. He'll be one of the best big men in the game if he goes to a good team. He just finished what, his third season averaging 17/10/3?

That's a max guy right there. Obviously he needs to be in the right situation, but it can definitely be done. Who says he doesn't turn his attitude around like we've seen many players do. I think Sheed is a good comparison attitude wise, he just wants to win.

Could he be just posturing knowing he's not getting a max, he's basically just forcing them to trade him.

sheed is a different case because he didn't care about stardom. He also played D unlike Cousins. If I'm Dallas I would think about it. NY has nothing to offer Sac. They probably want picks because they're not competing.

AAtlanta is another team that should think about. Milwaukee too. Partner Cousins with Sanders and you have a nice tandem. although both have temper issues.

He will be a restricted free agent. Someone will offer him the max next year and Sacramento will likely match anyway.

Cousins how long did he stay in college and learn the team game under dean Smith like Sheed ?

Cousins can play Defense give him something(team) to play for , he wants to win just like Sheed did.

So is he just posturing his position to get paid big ?

unless you can trade Tyson to a team to get some future picks and even add JR in a S&T since Evans is probably leaving too. However, all that is highly unlikely.

Cousins-Melo-JR..............Big 3 low IQ.

Woodson can take Cuz into the brotherhood of man home for wayward underachieving physically talented club.

In a way, Grun is doing what Isiah started but doing it better with the CBA keeping it real.

Yeah and his emotional issues are a concern. They might be maturity related but if you are giving him a max deal I think you would want to be sure of that. I believe he has had conflicts with at least two coaches in Sac and did have to spend some in season time away from the team at some point. He does have a ton of talent and size.

a max deal for him is D. Jordan money I believe so it's not that bad.

probably your best post ever.

knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%

Kid is young and talented....put him in thus squad and the knicks get better. Cousins instead of Indiana and we probably win. Cousins woulda probably fought Hubert after a intentional foul but that's besides the point.

I would do a a trade of Chandler & Shumpert for Cousins & Tyreke Evans. They can throw in Tony Douglas for salary matching purposes..

We get younger & better...
