Danny Puts an End to Cousins Rumors. Seeks Consistent Scorer

[Alleyoopster]

Your not not going to believe this. I can't tell you who Danny will acquire, but I can guess who he is most likely to trade away and most desired by other teams. Amir Johnson or Avery Bradley. Could throw David Lee in the mix......?   

Danny has a habit of trading away or not resigning the best shooters on the team.

So KO and IT4 too?

Hope it's worth it.

Ainge was asked about DeMarcus Cousins and while he refused to talk about him by name, he downplayed any interest in a guy that could be disruptive.

I don't think it's ever a good idea to have players that are disruptive to your team, on the court and off the court.

Right out the horses mouth and there is a debate.

I guess he was asked about Cousins and is talking about Mark Blount

Maybe he is insane. Or I'm on insano pills today

Perhaps you could re-read the source material?

During his weekly appearance on Boston sports radio 98.5 the SportsHub on Thursday, Ainge politely declined to comment on other teams' players, but was pressed on whether he would be leery of adding so-called "disruptive" players to a locker room comprised heavily of character guys.

"I think [disruptive personalities are] a problem in any locker room," Ainge told the "Toucher and Rich" program. "There’s a time -- first of all, we have good character on our team right now and we have some mature kids, even though we don’t have an old team. I don't think it’s ever a good idea to have players that are disruptive to your team, on the court and off the court."

Nowhere did he say that he was for or against trading for DMC, although he did cite the ideal of landing a scoring big man. You are reading too much into his generic answer to a loaded question, while ignoring that he specifically wants a lead-scoring big.

Neither of them...Danny usually moves the highest percentage shooters.

I think DA is blowing smoke again, celtics have by far the best package to offer for boogie, if DA makes the perceived interest lower for DMC, than the cost would be lower as well. The price goes from the BRK 1st, Dallas 1st and Sully to just the BRK 1st and Sully

Do you still make Sigs?

Two sides to every coin:

Ainge said it didn't matter which position that go-to scorer played, but given Boston's current roster configuration, he added, "Ideally, it’d be a big man, but it doesn’t have to be."

I'd rather have Gasol than Howard ......Cousins an't coming to Boston , he is too in love with the owner.

[dreamgreen]

I think we should get Howard, Cousins and Rondo, happiest team in the league!

Y'know it's actually the owner who: a) is in love with Cousins, and b) actually makes the decisions for the franchise because he's, well, ya know... the owner. But the general gist here is accurate. Cousins isn't getting traded.
