Maybe they would take Smoove off of our hands? we would probably have to take back another player to make it work. They may move. He maybe a headcase as well but at least he knows his role.

Change in Team Outlook: +2.8 ppg, +4.0 rpg, and -2.0 apg.

Way too much for someone who is demanding a trade.

I'd give em' Marv, Kirk + picks and tell em to kick rocks.

I'd trade Josh the SF head case for Cousins the C headcase. At least it's a legit center. I'd try to get a pick from them as well.

I would do this in a second.  I know Cousins is a headcase.  I am not of the mind that JS is but that you have to take a little bad with the good.  I'd it in large part because Cousins is a center not a small Pf and Cousins has a post-scorer skill set.  I also do it because we have a decent BU center in ZaZa.  Lastly I do it because we can take on Cousins and say Garcia and still save $3M a year.  

While I like Howard with JS alright, I do not like Cousins withOUT Horford.  Horford is steadier and with the super-talented but ill-mannered Cousins that would be needed.

In this shortened season I'm kinda on the fence about shaking up things (unless is for D12) at least until I see how we compete up to the trade deadline.
However, I won't mind the trade of Josh for Cousins.  I think there are enough veterans (which is lacking in Sacto) on this team to get Cousins under some kind of control. That will give us a legit low post scorer, a rebounder and a decent enough shot blocker/defender.

Also, a package with Cousins would be more likely to get us Howard IMO, should we choose to go that route.

Westphaul will be fired.   It's not just cousins, Evans is unhappy also.

I have always been reluctant to trade Josh, but Cousins is one guy I'd take a chance on.

All I'm saying is that we should at least take some interest in a deal

I just hope they don't wait the entire season before they FINALLY realize that the "core" isn't working and needs to be broken up (something many of us realized at least two years ago).  

That being said, I think a trade of Josh could be beneficial for him and the team.  The coaching isn't the only thing that needs to be corrected.

I honestly would have to say YES to this trade! at this point and looking to the future Centers are hard to come by! Cousins is a legit Center will probably have a break out year this year. He did really good last season as a rookie and he averaged 14pts and 8rebs! similar to josh smith but Cousins score around the goal and Im sure he will avg. at the least 10 boards this year!

Hell if it was my decision I say do this deal in a heart beat! if Sac town considers it!
