It is so obvious the guy is annoyed with the Kings managment. really reminds me of the Shaq situation when was in Orlando. if i'm the Lakers, i'm trying to push hard to the Kings for a trade. Cousins and Randle together will be priceless. I don't care moving anybody for this guy.
Mitch: "Hey so how is Cousins doing for you? Kind of a headache, huh?" D'Alessandro: "Yeah... It's rough. We have this vision and he's a part of it but he's really upset about the way we're handling the coach..." Mitch: "You know who's great at the way people handle coaches? Jordan Hill. He's great at it, man." D'Alessandro: "Okay?..." Mitch: "So... You want him? We'll give you Jeremy Lin too. He really likes taking game winners. Oh! And he's FROM Northern California! Oh man! It's perfect!" D'Alessandro: "You're making me a trade offer for DeMarcus?... Are you serious?" Mitch: "We'll throw in Nash too! Hall of Famer and a big expiring! This is sounding better and better man! Should I start firing up the paperwork or what?" D'Alessandro: "How much have you had to drink tonight?" Mitch: "Well... I'm not drunk." D'Alessandro: "Are you high?" Mitch: "Well... I'm not drunk." D'Alessandro: *hangs up*
Yeah, I'd like to have him actually, but we have nothing. He was a beast for Team USA this summer, going to be an All-Star, and he's clearly their franchise player, he can't just be had. I don't believe we can trade Houston's pick, Hill and Lin is not that enticing, heck I don't think they'd take Kobe for him at this point.
if our plan is striking out on big free agents every year we could potentially go after/swing and miss on him summer of 2018
If we had anything they'd even come close to considering, of course I'd be all for it. Hill, Lin, Hou 1st. Sadly Mitch would get laughed at.
all over the league teams make trades that are laughable. anything can happen if the player wants to play here. there are many things to do to get a player. im not a GM its not my job, but you can trade players for picks and then picks for players. just thought its an opportunity to get an all star center - Shaq version 2. not RIGHT Now, don't care if it will take a year if it will get done. what i know is that SAC is on the verge of a yard sale, they are breaking the team up unless something strange will happen.
