Phantom, you are the king of bolder font. After 13 years on CB, I wish I had a 'thing'.

AB, Crowder, LAL/Sac pick should get it done. Let's just admit our 'mistake' and move on with Cousins.

Wait, I use single quotes instead of " - maybe that's my thing! Tp for the realization!  : :-*

Emojis. Bold font. That's how I roll!

I wish they had a more defined sarcasm font on the forums (like they do on the SB Nation Blogs).

I'd abuse that A LOT MORE.

What should be clear at this point is that Ainge isn't building just for this year. Cousins has one year left on his deal. You're going to give up promising young players and a premium draft pick on the hope that a volatile player like Cousins will re-sign?

Like it or not, whether it's the right move or not, Ainge's primary focus is the long term. Which means Brown, Tatum, BRK18,  LAL18, and maybe Smart. IMO, in his mind, everything else is relatively nominal. Don't forget Colangelo said the Celts tried for a year to get that LAL pick. Ainge must be super high on the '18 draft and it'll take something special to pry one of those picks away from him. One year of Demarcus Cousins doesn't qualify as something special.

Ainge doesn't like cousins for that reason. Its pretty obvious

The look on Brads face when Cousins threw smart to the ground right in front of him.. I knew right then that he would never coach that guy..

You don't make an offer for a player you don't want. Time for people here to get some reality!

Are we using a Delorean or a Hot Tub Time Machine?

Otherwise, we're out of luck.
As incredible and mobile as the Delorean is (wait....does it fly?) I think the ski resort hot tub that runs on alcohol is obviously a lot more manageable and safer than the car that takes gas and plutonium.

If Danny wanted Boogie he would have traded for him at the deadline.

If the Pelicans would deal him, we wouldn't want him. If they're willing to part with him, it means the dude is so toxic that he's not worth it. He's also a 1-year rental. If the Pelicans deal him it's because they know he won't re-up.

I think Crowder is fair value for Cousins right now. Boogie is a great case study in how to tank your value even if you are a transcendently talented player.

My biases, in order of fervor:
Pro:
Smart, Brown, Hayward, Tatum, Kemba, Grant Williams, Sleepy Williams, Edwards!

Anti:
Kanter, Semi, Theis, Poierier
