There is going to be a hole in the roster regardless of whether Rudy stays or goes. The question I have is, why are people so certain Cousins can go anywhere with a bunch of role players? even if they are the right role players. That's not what wins in the NBA anymore, your stars need help from other stars...Cousins doesn't have that unless Trill turns into a two way player of some sort.

We need to keep Seth Curry.. Here are his stats in the 11 games where he played 25mins or more...
15.1ppg 3.7apg 3.3rpg 50% 3pt (32 of 64) 2.9 out of 5.8 per game.
Even if it's a bench role we need to keep him. These are the stats that are getting paid 10mil+ per season this year. I would definitely give him 7-8mil per year for 4 years.

With Horford going to the Celtics & the fact that Horford has stated that he wants to play PF, I wonder if they are interested in acquiring Koufos.
Cauley-Stein should be getting all of the backup C minutes so our 3rd big should be able to play PF. A deal centered around A. Johnson for Koufos would be a great deal for us. Not only do we fix the logjam at C, but we acquire one of the best roleplaying PFs in the game while also giving us more cap flexibility in the 2017 offseason.
Cousins/Cauley-Stein/Johnson would be a great, defensive 3 big rotation. Then you have Casspi & Tolliver as your stretch 4s and Skal & Papagiannis as potential contributors down the road.

Jesus, I'm tired of this narrative.
YES HE IS.
Dude was fantastic on both ends last season. He was our 2nd most impactful player. He put up great numbers in the 15 starts he got. He plays off Cousins in the exact ways we want. There's only so many times we can post his numbers to show he's a starting SF.

Early onset senility.
Been meddling for the last couple of years trying to force a Golden State revolution in Indy and make George into a smallball PF. George hasn't cooperated. May have helped cost Vogel his job even since Vogel listened to his player rather than his GM.
Frankly, legend or not, if I owned the Pacers I would have canned Bird by this point and given him a nice gold retirement watch.

I'd hate to give up WCS but maybe if absorb stuckey for them giving them more cap space, we could do Rudy and kosta for George and stuckey? That pretty much cements collison as the starter with stuckey backup and maybe curry or somebody. But all of a sudden our depth up front is left to tolliver and a couple rookies.
Anyone else wonder what it's going to be like when these average players show up with their Power ball like contracts this season? Some jealousy I imagine.
Maybe once chubby Conley can go back to eating now that he got paid? I wonder how stupid his old teammate Greg Ogden is feeling right now.
It will be interesting to see the social ripple effect.

It's no secret that NBA players have egos and I would go as far as to say some the superstars are arrogant. Just once I'd like to see on so arrogant to say you know what, I a, the best and to prove it I am gonna go sign with a team that hasn't made the playoffs in x amount of years and take them to the playoffs. Instead they lobby around trying to find the best team that's already a perennial playoff team and joins them.
