Not sure as rumors a just that, but I do know that the front office and Luke are very high on the young core of this team, so I'd be surprised if they were gonna trade for cousins the head case and give up some of that core. Butler would command a lot of that core leaving as we really don't have any picks to trade, so I'll believe it if and when it happens.
the only time i think it's okay to give up picks / young players for a proven player, is if you already have a good team and you can contend.
if you don't have a team ready to contented, the person you're trading for better be the type of player that can carry the team. in our case, Butler or Cousins isn't that guy.
Agreed. Neither guy is worth it at this point. Better to just develope the youth and see where this goes.
