Not only are we trading Cousins but we are doing it for a position that has already been filled by Bogdan. This team just doesn't know what they are doing.....ever.

Can confirm Kings-Pelicans deal: DeMarcus Cousins to NO for Buddy Hield, Tyreke Evans, Langston Galloway & a 2017 first and 2nd (Philly's)
I knew Vlade was hot garbage all along. A pretend GM. That's all he ever was and will be. There was never a plan in place or a vision. This franchise is a joke and laughable. Never watching another game until ownership and FO is cleaned top to bottom.
This is bizarre.
I mean, like really crapty bizarre.
No star in return, a likely low 1st, now, and a player whose best days are way behind him?
I just don't get it.
I mean, if you're going to blow it up, go with a crap ton of draft picks, a young superstar, and some expirings to make it work. But this? This is honestly bush league.
Ugh...that's all i can say. This is the garbage we get in return for the best center in the league? Vivek and Vlade are jokes! I have said it all along. What an embarrassment. When does it end? Get these clowns away from my team!!!!
So I'm trying to choose between rooting for Denver or NO. I am done. I take back any defense I have ever given to Vlade or Vivek. This is atrocious on every level.
This would be more blatant sabotaging of a franchise than the Maloofs were doing when they were deliberately screwing up picks and trades when they wanted out of Sacramento.
Getting rid of Demarcus for this horrible of return ........... I just can't believe that modern sports culture would allow it:
Vivek and the Kings would never be able to show their faces again. Everyone involved in the trade would be laughed at by their peers the rest of their careers.
