But if we did trade Russell, it wouldn't be too hard to find a veteran PG who could come in and run the offense. High energy youngsters like Randle (who I think will become better and better) are harder to find.
Yeah, as talented as he is, he's been a loser. But then again, he's played for the Queens. Is he likeable among his peers though? I don't know if he is Dwight HOward in sheep's clothing or just Rasheed Wallace, who happened to be a beloved douchebag and solid teammate. The point is that IF Cousins isn't the asshole we think he is, he would attract a another star player much easier than our infants, especially after this stupid gaffe by D'Angelo Russell. Also, this might sound silly, but maybe, just maybe, Marcelo Huertas is ready for Prime Time after learning he league. Yeah, he'll be 33, but he plays like Nash who was at his best with even more mileage on him at this point in his career.
