I read it had been on sale since April, so hopefully that means it's BS!

Some players you wonder about their motor, after they win a ring. Id put Cousins on that list. Id prefer a Draymond/Mitch frontcourt. Although I doubt he is going anywhere.

Not worried about his motor, im worried about his mind. snarky kind of dude for sure. very talented for sure!!! I'd be more worried about his motivation after signing a big contract. Financially content vs. content to win a ring? Lets be real, if Durant has "asterisks" because he came to a ready made team then Cousins has layers of them should GSW win this series. He played 30 games with them this season. That's it. Kid is a talent. He is a salty one.

You're making AD's upcoming deal out to be John Wall level lol It won't be that bad. I agree that the AD deal only makes sense if Durant comes. We need to continue collecting assets if the KD plan falls through.

Why?

Warriors own his full Bird Rights and can give him more years/more AAV/more contention possibilities than any other team.

I think most people really don't get the "Will He/Won't He" **** is fabricated by writers/marketers/ad guys what work for Nike and the networks. Durant might leave. Or he might not. But this stuff he says to the press is not just random stuff. It's actual blueprint and script he has to follow.

Draymond in NY? Now THAT would be the ultimate bitch move. Then dare KD to follow him. Don't think this FO is up for that kind of drama.

Have no idea what you are talking about. Draymond going to the Knicks would make him a "bitch"?
Perry/Mills signing Green would make them bitches?

1. Draymond and KD have the unpleasant history, right?
2. Draymond gets signed to the Knicks before KD, in the midst of all this KD to Knicks media hype.
3. Draymond isn't the most stable of NBA personalities to begin with.

You don't see the potential drama in any of this? Not saying our FO would be making a bitch move, since I would love to have Green here, just Draymond creating Draymond bitchiness. I have no idea how you don't see that storyline would be the definition of bitch-filled reality show TV.

Do you think KD is coming here if Green signs here first?

Doubt Perry/Mills would sign Green if Durant said that move would be a non-starter to coming to NY. If either of them made some kind of handshake agreement to come to NY, and backed out a the last minute, that would be a "bitch move". Otherwise its just business.

Not saying Green would be my first, or even second, or third choice. Still would take him over Cousins.
