Why hasn't anybody gone after DeMarcus Cousins yet? If he recovers and loses a few pounds this offseason, couldn't he end up being a really good center for somebody? What team still needs a big man?
Because he's an asshole?

^ That's going a bit far, haha. Just let the guy make his announcement when he's ready, for Pete's sake.

I like the Heat as a fit if he can get into shape. Not sure who else...Clips? Spurs? Probably going to have to be another 1yr deal to show can he play and move.
He basically won GS a game in the finals. He's still a handful at times and should be much better 2 years removed from injury. It could be he's looking for too much money.

As long as we are shaking up the whole roster, I'm with my guy wpmiller256. Let's bring him in.

I would have stretched Tyler and dumped Melton or Okobo and given Cousins our $10 million leftover cap space, rather than sign Kaminsky for $5 million. We need a rebounder on the roster besides Ayton!

Cousins would never have signed here to come off the bench. Let's get that out there right now. You guys are all high

To be clear, I wasn't saying that the Suns should sign him. I was just surprised that no team had gone after him yet.

Yes not referring to you. I’m surprised he hasn’t signed with anyone yet too, but he’s not signing with the worst team in the league and coming off the bench on a cheap deal. Dreaming is free here I guess.

I would have started him next to Ayton, and let Saric come off the bench.

I was hoping we wouldn't have the DMC discussion. You just can't entertain bringing that guy in here. Nothing against him, just not the right scene.

Still can't believe we just gave Warren away

I was done with Warren after last season. Playing half the games and then being out that long with a bone bruise was just too much. Glad he’s gone.

I don’t mind that he’s gone, but agree with the general sentiment that it seems we didn’t get good value in the trade, including a pick and not getting any back. Was that really necessary?
