It would be real interesting if the wizards reunited cousins and Wall as cousins is a free agent

they could ship Beal out too

Anyone else see this Wiz team getting broken up or at least substantially changed this summer?

Maybe we can get Keef to join Mook?
That would be the most wild bench ever. I’d love it

I know the NBA won't let it happen but can you imagine if Indiana beat the Cavs to win it in 7?  Nick Wright and Shannon Sharpe wouldn't be able to come up with excuses for Lebron fast enough.

How exactly would that work? Wouldn't they need to take back salary to flip Beal anyways. So would they still have enough to even make an offer for Cousins?

Same with Cowherd. It would be a glorious day!  8)

Watch what you say about Cowherd, he thinks the C’s will win it all next year ;)

LeHelp is finally gassing out in this series. He will need another 40+ pts to win this series.

A sign and trade of Cousins for Beal would be interesting to see.  I doubt the Wizards would do this with Cousins coming off of a serious injury but the Pelicans would be dangerous with Beal.  He could easily fit at the 3 spot with Rondo and Holiday running the backcourt.

Oh yeah, I saw that. Great to hear!

It baffles me how NO ONE is talking about the Celtics at all it seems anymore (not Undisputed, First Take, ESPN, etc.) even though they have taken a healthy Bucks team w/Giannis to a 7th game.

Anyways, I just hope Lebron doesn't actually go Philly. If he does, I think PHI rules the East for a while.

WOW! Pacers start the 3rd on a 17-7 run. Up by 20 now!  :o

you make a great suggestion. Beal would be a very good option for the pels

I mean, I think it's unlikely that Lebron stays in Cleveland at this point regardless, but if the Pacers somehow pull off this series, surely there's 0 chance that he stays, right?

Yeah, TP to you both. That's a great suggestion IMHO.

Either way, I think we'll be seeing A LOT of movement around the league honestly. What happens with Portland and Lilliard/McCollum? Wiz with Wall/Beal? Do Raptors continue with Lowry/DeRozan? Then of course, seeing where guys like Lebron, Cousins, George goes, and the Kawhi trade saga as well.

They have no cap space to sign Cousins.  Maybe they could work with NOP on a Cousins sign and trade for Beal.  Beal would be a really nice fit for NOP.  I wouldn't see a Wall/Cousins team as a contender in the East. 

If I'm the Wiz, I try to move Wall.  I think he's overrated now and I don't think he'll age well so his contract will be quite ugly in a few years.  PG is probably the easiest position to fill.
