Cousins to NOLA?

[J.Jennings]

When I think of super teams or "big threes" they are typically three all-stars and potential hall of fame type players. Pierce, Allen, Garnett. James, Wade, Bosh. Duncan, Parker, Ginobli.

Bledsoe is a good player. But to make it a super team would be adding Wall. My argument against that happening is that a team can't afford three UK superstars. Adding a guy who isn't a max contract guy is possible, but I'm not saying it's not.

Something to note, Darius Miller was drafted by the Pelicans, Darius Miller is killing it overseas. .

Wall is a max player but Bledsoe is a pretty good backup plan but the Pelicans want to hold on to Holiday anyways. We will never see a Uk super team andDavis /Cousins is probably as good as it will get unless Booker and Ulis develop into all stars..

Uk super team or not, I am very happy for both Cousins and Davis. Been watching a lot on them lately this week in the news with interviews from both and you can tell both guys are happy and very excited. Cousins was actually shocked he was traded and was told prior to he was safe and not going anywhere. If you watched Cousins goodbye speech to Sacramento it was heart felt and real in my opinion, Big Cuz is not a bad person at all. Kudos' to the Pelicans and Coach Gentry for traveling with Cousins and instead of talking basketball to him, just taking the time to get to know more about him as a young man and about his family and all. I do believe this will be a turning point in D. Cousins career and that he will find some peace and happiness. I still want Cuz to be Cuz and play with that fire that makes both he and a player like Rondo the players they are.

I hope both are happy with the trade and they prove it on the court. Have they had a game together yet?

No but they have played rec ball for years during the summer at UK and Davis has already commented on how he is willing to sacrifice points and play a high low game with Cousins. As many may not know, Cousins is actually a very skilled passing big man and he gets little credit. Question is, who takes the last shot in the game? With all due respect to Davis, many analysts say you have to give the ball to Cousins in the low post because he is the best low post scorer in the NBA right now.

In defense of Cousins in Sacramento, how many coaches did he have to play with? The only coach that Cousins really liked and respected was Malone but when Cousins went out to injury, the Kings started off rough and lost some games so they canned the coach without there superstar being in the lineup, brilliant idea by the Kings organization smh.

Davis showed here he wasn't afraid to sacrifice his numbers for the good of the team. I'm sure he's still willing to do so like you said. Queue up the announcers talking about he took the fourth most shots on the team while at Kentucky.

Que up Calipari on Davis then, he has always sold recruits on the fact Davis sacrificed his shots while at Kentucky.

I'm not so sure he sells recruits on that. Sells a playing style? Absolutely. Most kids don't want to hear "come play for me and take the fourth most shots" but them hearing "you don't have to come here and score 30 a night to go to the NBA" sounds better. I think he uses Davis as an example to say they will have to work hard and make sacrifices, but those sacrifices won't cause them to not get drafted.

Apparently Cousins and Davis teaming up didn't help. I saw that the Pelicans lost by 30 to the Rockets last night.

[Joneslab]

The Pels got crushed at home last night by the Rockets.

Cousins had 27 and Davis had 29, but not much help from anybody else.

I think that is how this is going to go...

Pelicans need some shooters and other supporting pieces to go along with Boogie & AD. They need to work this off season aquire some free agents or see what they can do in the draft, you will see improvements in Pelicans next season.

Since Cousins was traded, Wcs and Skal producing in a major way for the Kings.Maybe Sacramento not as dumb as we thought. ..
