Lakers will have spacing problems with Lance, Rondo and Lonzo on the floor with Lebron.

If Boogie is signing for $10 million, we should sign-and-trade Morris, Nader and Yabu for him.

I know he's one your binkies, Roy, but if Danny and Co. weren't interested when he was healthy, I doubt they'll be interested in him now.

Gambling on an All-NBA player for spare parts? I’d do it.

Ainge won’t. Glad the C’s don’t gamble on chemistry risks personally.

They weren't interested in the amount of money, and years he was originally asking for...

I get it, you guys don't like Cousins. But if Cousins would come to Boston for 10-12 million, man I'll gladly take him... Better than Morris and Nader/Yabusele.

I'm not sure about the revisionist history you're throwing at me here, but let's unpack it:

On the contrary, I liked Cousins pre-injury. But it was widely reported that the C's didn't make an offer for him when the Kings put him on the market because of concerns over his attitude. If they weren't interested when he was healthy, I don't see them being interested now. Even as a bargain bin pickup. That's not me projecting feelings, that's just logic.

Rondo agrees to Lakers.

Does that mean Lonzo could be dealt to the Spurs for Kawhi?

Leaves Rondo & Hart to play the PG spot, seems good enough.

Also hearing that the Pelicans are cold on DeMarcus Cousins. Boogie may have to accept a 1-year discounted deal to play w/ LAL

For those wondering how much Rajon Rondo meant to the Pelicans, here is text I just got from NBA source:

“Death blow. Heart and soul of team. Gave AD balls. Great leader. Kept Cuz in check.”

The Lakers standing offer to DeMarcus Cousins is a 1 year deal in the range of $10 million, I’m told.

oh man if they get Cousins for 10mil that is just freaking unfair.


Wow lol, huge fall from grace for Boogie if he even considers that offer... Pelicans can offer him a better contract, and they should... If they want the chance to retain Davis.

Coming off a popped ACL.  Reportedly looking at something like a February return.  $10m for a one half year to show he's ok isn't a terrible offer.

I’d think SA would be holding out for Ingram over Ball.

Not an ACL, an Achilles. A popped ACL would've been a better prognosis.

Torn Achilles, not ACL. It's 10x worse
