He's entitled and clearly not a great team guy or culture guy. Glad we replaced him with Lee.
Joeger is a good coach. Hope he can get things right in Sacramento.
Is any guard from last years backcourt rotation playing this year?
Every day I thank Rambis for driving him away from here
a bit to self important, someone needs to slap him and tell him he is not that good, make him realize he is hurting himself not others

Galloway has carved out a nice role in new orleans.

Yeah his career is likely done in the sense where he won't get a good contract or rotation spot after this. He is a solid player when he wants to be, but clearly his attitude has affected his play over the last couple of years. When he said he only wanted to go somewhere he could start, i knew he was headed down the wrong path. That is simply not someone who can be a key member of a winning team. When he gets his ego in check, he could easily land in a roster spot on a good team and play spot minutes here and there, but the role he wants in the league has essentially come to an end for him. And the kings...what a mess they are.
He will land with Cleveland and we'll just mutter under our breaths............
Culture in Sacramento isn't good. I think it stems from Cousins I personally think he needs to be moved. They are going through a phase that the Knicks went through once. With that said Afflalo should never refuse to play since isn't that good.

A lot of it comes from Cousins but their management team is simply horrible. Divac is a nice story being a sacramento guy, but he doesn't have a clue how to run a team. He borders on completely incompetent as a GM. If i were him, i would try to work on a deal with Denver. Cousins to Denver for Jokic, Faried, and Murry, if possible. Cousins would reunite with Malone, who he worked pretty well with, in a much better organization in a small market. It would be a good fit for Cousins if there is one. Denver needs to consolidate their talent a little bit to take the next step. Divac might see a bit of himself in the skilled Jokic and have a fresh chance to build his team around a new center and another prospect in Murray. Faried is a fun player who would bring new life there, and they can be bad for another year and land their PG of the future. Suddenly they have a nice new core of Jokic, Faried, Murry and 2017 PG from the draft, and have rid themselves of the negativity. But Divac is running out of time with Cousins in Sac, and needs to act sooner rather than later. They owe some draft picks too from terrible trades, so the sooner they can restart the better. He can actually deal Cousins in a deal like this and save face a little bit, but i doubt he will.
Afflalo is on track to being blackballed in the league.

Have to do a deal with Celtics centered around Brooklyns pick and then some.
Thats for Talent. As for lockeroom poison, he is Toxic!
Too bad Rondo did not stick around. They were great together!

Celtics have the Brooklyn pick, but i don't like most of their young players. I would rather have Jokic and Murray, 2 very young players who have already proven they can help a team and can be part of a good core. Sacramento will screw up the Brooklyn pick as they have every draft since getting Cousins. Jokic and Murray are sure things.
I don't think anyone is breaking down any doors to get Cousins. With that said he just got fined.

Definitely not. However, the talent is undeniable so he will still yield a big package. There's a lot of stuff coming out from anonymous execs saying they wouldn't touch him, but that is generally done just in attempt to drive down his value. Sac should trade him now. The fine isn't hurting his value, but he is a ticking time bomb in Sac and something bigger will hurt it. His contract is getting less valuable by the day as well.

They won't get it right in Sacramento until they wake up and realize they need to trade D.Cousins as soon as they can cause he's the cancer of that team. He's a great player but a horrible team player and that goes for anyone associated with that team from the players to the coaches cause he's a bad person to pretty much all of them. They'll get a hellz of a return for him to that will help them out more than just he will if they make the right trade.

The smart GM's/teams won't trade for him but there will be plenty of teams that will trade for him whether it be just to sell tickets or that they actually think they can win with him.
Hated him. Not a good player and would quit on plays when he didnt get the ball

Weren't the lakers trying to break down doors for him? Personally (and I'm not a Dr) but he strikes me with some form of bipolar disorder (ala Brandon Marshall years ago) and if they could fix that you'd have a helluva player
AA was a disappointment. Very inconsistent for a guy w his pay grade. Sulker
Forever will remember him in the corner w his sulky frown face because Galloway was taking the shot
Also he never followed his shot. Shooter should know if his shot is short and be ready for the rebound.
