Fish seemed a bit salty on Twitter. Dont know if the Mavs want to cross that bridge anyways

Crazy trade. Kings got hosed. Cousins and Davis are gonna make one of the nastiest big man duos for years to come. Looking forward to seeing it. I think they win the 8th seed this year and win a playoff series or two.

I believe this is a move to see if Alvin Gentry is right for the Pelicans. The excuses are that Davis don't have help. If the Pelicans don't improve, Gentry is out.

I am going to watch pelicans games when I can.

Anthony Davis is phenomenal, he will be the next house hold name IMO. He's really good and has evolved his game since being drafted.

Cousins is insanely talented, prolly the best big man in the game who can do it all, even shoot 3's consistently. This will be the real test to determine if he is uncoachable.

I'm not sure about the rest of the roster (I don't know who's on it) but the pelicans have upgraded. The pelicans have Maybe 2 of the top 10-15 players currently in the league and they are both bigs.

i'd be slamming my head against a wall if i had vlade divac as my gm.

Was it Divac or the owner that wanted Cousins gone?

i'm not sure who wanted cousins traded. but the kings' owner has said that he thinks buddy hield is the next steph curry. and he's consistent because he's been obsessed with hield for a while now.

mr. gm vlade divac said he had a much better offer for cousins 2 days before actually trading cousins to the pelicans.
