Lakers In Talks To Acquire DeMarcus Cousins

[BlakFrankWhite]

This would be a huge coup.

[Hey Yo]

Seems like the "in talks" is nothing more than Vlade continuing to say "we're not dealing Cousins"

just another click bait story by Stein.

[Bobcats2013]

Memphis ain't letting go of Marc Gasol for a 19 year old and whatever scrub you package him with

Gasol is a free agent. Sign him and people start taking you more seriously.

inb4 Cousins requests a trade after one year

can't wait to hear about Boogie slapping Kobe in the locker room

[Levity]

They wouldn't... you'd find Cousins' body in an alley behind the Staples Center three games into the preseason.

I hope they pick him up if only for the drama and the laughs.

except on many occasions Kobe has said he loves cousins passion and desire to win. One of the few superstars at the time that were in support of cousins making team usa (when he was on the select team)

Come on LAker nation, come on now...


This is just him checking out on Defense from Rudy Gay iso...Can you imagine the drama between he and Kobe?

[HylianNightmare]

Love it

[Rooster]

Oh god no. I'd rather build around Okafor/Randle/Clarkson, rather than having to give up all 3 to only get Boogie.

I have been saying no to this either. I can understand if others are very excited about Boogie because he's truly talented but he comes with extra baggage. If he's truly an elite like his numbers suggest than Kings would have been a playoff team in his third year. But he just does not have that impact, does not offer a lot of intangibles.

[Optimus Prime]

I don't know how it gets done, but I'd rather have Boogie than the #2 pick.

Boogie is a beast.

[Beastmode88]

Im Still Ballin would be on suicide watch if this went down.

Lakers virtually gut all their youth in this trade.. All the youth that has potential anyways

A roster with the main pieces being a broken down Kobe and cousins is not making the playoffs in the west..

A couple years of lottery.. Then lakers are forced to trade cousins for peanuts because he won't sign an extension..

Lakers back to having nothing again


Seriously lakers are better off sticking with what they have and trying to rebuild..

[HurricaneKid]

LOL @ Laker fans.

Don't want to part with an undrafted 2nd year player to get the best young big in the game? WOW.

You think Randle and Okafor are even close to the same plane as Boogie?

And Vlade just sitting there saying "we aren't trading him" and "Maybe for MJ".
