    Jeff green just makes too much to say that it's never happened...... hes the perfect for us..... wont solve our center issues but definitely fixes the 3/4 problem

    Cousins hasn't given us many problems with Clint down there.

    I'd much rather have him shooting than Steph/Klay/KD. Hell, I'd bate him into taking 25 shots If I could. The threes he will give up on defense are a fantastic trade-off. We simply can't let Steph/Klay get loose on off-ball screens. It is absolutely vital to beating GSW, imo.

    Like...a taller forward who can mix it up defensively, who "fits the system", also catch and shoot threes?

    You mean Trevor Ariza?

    I've proposed this trade a week ago.

    Brandon Knight/FRP for JaMichael Green and temple.

    I think this trade will add an different dimension to this team. Possibly spare PJ Tucker some minutes.

    All of these mentioned pieces (Green, Ellington, MWilliams, etc.) definitely make us better, but Tobias/Beal trades, at this point, are the only single moves that would put us over the top, imo.

    I think Beal is the better player but Tobias is a better fit. I'd feel comfortable giving them both long term contracts, too.

    The Rockets would do that trade in a heartbeat unless they had reason to think they could aggregate Knight into a star situation.

    Doubt Memphis would. They could get nearly the same value without taking back dumb money.

    When healthy he dominates the Rox. Not capela fault. Please google his game logs since you don’t remember. http://www.espn.com/nba/player/gamelog/_/id/4258/year/2017/demarcus-cousins

    Playoffs come down to matchups, you are naive if you don’t think warriors will make use of hI’m when things slow down.

    His contract is an expiring 3.2 M. He can't fix it, but he can be helpful there, like Faried.

    Has Tobias' defense improved considerably?

    Is Tobias Harris available? Aren't the Clippers trying to be a playoff team?

    The Wizards have apparently said that Beal is not available.
