J-ALL-DAY Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 15 minutes ago, showtime said: Yes, but he called the Warriors and he agreed to the mid-level exception with them. According to reports, the other team he was considering was the Celtics. I guess he called them or was going to call them next. Why didn't he call the Orlando Magic or another bottom feeding team? Because he probably wouldn't have the ability to not be rushed at all and he damn sure would not win. With the Warriors he can take all the time he needs because they will still win a title even with extremely little participation from Cousins. Warriors weren't the only team he called though. I already posted an excerpt from Lowe's article where he asked certain teams for a one year 15 million offer and other teams less money. Overall market for him was just dry. And any comparable offer to the Warriors he likely just turned down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They looked out with Curry, they offered him and Ellis to the Bucks. Bucks made the wrong choice. Klay and Draymond were great picks. Iggy signing was really bad and they're lucky they drafted so well or that would've handicapped them severely. KD and Boogie were gift wrapped FA signings. Kerr signing was bashed ( I am not sure on here but national media) They never offered Curry to the Bucks ??????. GTFOH. They already drafted all the players before the signed Iggy .... so how are they lucky drafted well. And yes ... you get gift wrapped signings when you build a great foundation and organization people want to be apart of . snd it helps that our jerseys are made out of vibranium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only risk is if he beats KD senseless and he’s done for the year. Why are you going so hard on Demarcus. Like I am at work, trying not to die of laughter.

I like where Boston is at at the moment. Unless this team had a John Stockton like point guard, which we don't, how can all the scores Get Rhythm and be happy Golden State does it fine. Butler, Irving, and Hayward can co-exist. Especially if Horford is their fourth star. Add in shooting from Tatum/Morris at the four. I would rank that team above Houston.

YogiBiz Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 28 minutes ago, MookieMonster said: Pelicans had multiple sign and trade talks that would've paid him 12-17M. Boogie saying he got no offers his him being a whiny baby. He salty no one offered him a full max so he went full petty and signed an MLE with the Warriors. I don't know Cousins as a person, but seeing his character through games and through reports. This sounds really likely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t draft a franchise guard and trade him immediately. 2. I never saw one source ever saying that so please pull that out of the archives (you can’t). But whatever helps you sleep @ night .

Wakanda Warriors Forever I can't/dont feel like finding a source about something from 5+ years ago but I 100% know for a fact that Curry was proposed as a trade option for Bogut originally. Milwaukee said no because this was when everyone thought he had bum ankles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really not remember when Curry was thought of as a possible injury liability/possible bust? Because it was widely thought that he had bad ankles and would possibly never recover. Even his own team thought so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
