    Could be worse I guess, if we can get him at a discount or for less years and retain Randle.

    I can probably warm up to this but word is that Cousins isn't going to be ready till mid season which would suck

    For what its worth too, Cousins and Randle are friends. Every time we've played against Cousins there is always some extra physical play between those two but they always hug it out after the game. #KentuckyConnection

    Would indeed suck, we’d probably have to try and get Lopez back with the room exception.

    Cousins mentored Randle on Team USA last summer. The trash talk is like a sibling thing.

    Anyone know on the top of their head what the max for next year is contract wise between Cousins and PG? I wondering if even if we gave Cousins his max for this year on a 1+1 year deal how much would that still give us. Factoring in Lebron on the team as well and trying to bring back Randle.

    I don't know if Cousins would agree to a 1+1 2nd year team option. But let's see what the market says.

    Here's the answer to my question. And I agree. If we had to choose between the two I would rather have Randle long term than Cousins

    I believe they'd have the same max around 30 million.

    It's incredibly difficult to project our future cap space right now.

    I'm really not feeling Boogie. Let's not get desperate here. The spurs are still f****d. PG staying may give teams courage to trade for Kawhi. But PG was never as firm as Kawhi has been about demanding only LA. I say we send out Ingram and a couple pics for Kawhi, stretch deng, and try to resign Randle. Bring on the Warriors!
