Spurs fielding trade calls for Parker

**nkdlunch** · 06-23-2011

I hate Cousins. And I only seen him play 3 games.

Spurs always seem to be used as leverage. Nothing new.

Would either of you be opposed to seeing Cousins come over instead of Thompson?

Cousins shooting 43% last year is a huge red flag, but I'd have to seriously consider that deal since he's still just a kid and has outstanding size.

While replacing RJ w Casspi/Garcia (if healthy) is an immediate upgrade, and Thompson is serviceable, wasting a pick on Thompson deflates everything and the gap between hill and TP is likely too large to overcome

There's a lot more wrong with that trade than picking Klay Thompson. Who the Spurs pick there is pretty much irrelevant. It's an era buster no matter who the Spurs select.

Cousins has a bad work ethic ... and after the first thing that goes wrong in a game he either argues too much or loses interest. But this guy also dominated the Lakers frontline in a game I watched. Anyway, I do not think the Kings would let him go ...

I just cannot see trading him this year. Certainly Parker will be able to command a lottery pick next season when there are guys actually worth drafting.

I can't believe the Spurs so badly want to get rid of Jefferson they'd be willing to take this trade.

**Kool Bob Love** · 06-23-2011

Thank you Spurs for helping me forget about my problems. No Lebron james.

**joshdaboss** · 06-23-2011

Comparing a complete scrub and bust like Jason Thompson, to a top-tier prospect like Cousins, is laughable at best.

**objective** · 06-23-2011

This is a pathetic disaster.

Not because it would end their le window, that window is already closed. But because the idiotic, preventable mistakes of the past (Jefferson) are hurting the future.

Teams calling Sacramento about the #7 pick are being told it's already been moved. Problem is, no one knows to who, or for which player.

I don't like the trade, but I don't think the "era" should have anything to do with it. The era is over already. Time to reinvent. Not with this e trade though.
