Cousins/Patterson to Heat for Bosh?

[Fraser9698]

ESPN's Brian Winhorst on BS Report says the Miami Heat could try to
trade Chris Bosh to the Kings for DeMarcus Cousins and Patrick Patterson.

I think Cousins would be more controlled/mature around LeBron and having a guy like Pat Riley in the front office. Would be a blockbuster move for Miami in my opinion. Not really sure who Winhorst is or how much merit that rumor has but it will be an interesting discussion nonetheless.

Would love this move. Bosh gets to be the man in Sacro, Cousins gets to have real leadership.

If Cousins was able to mature and handle the pressure then this would be a steal for the Heat. Cousins would really dominate in the East with the lack of big men other than Hibbert.

Patterson can help spread the floor the way Bosh does for the Heat, and Cousins would give them a legit post presence for the first time in the "Big 3" era.

I think that if they do lose the Finals they will consider moving Bosh atleast. He just hasn't had the effect he should be having in these Playoffs. It's like he is allergic to the paint.

All this puts more and more pressure on LeBron to carry the load. So far he's been able to, but it sure is asking for alot out of him.

[Quigley24]

I think it would be good for the Heat, but Cousins will have to play out on the perimeter a bit more so Lebron, Wade, and Cole could get clean drives to the basket.

[EricMetcalf21]

Honestly, COusins isn't going anywhere so wouldn't get too excited

[jeffmagley]

Cousins would be better in miami

[realreodeal]

How do 2 rookie scale contracts get traded for a max contract?

[drob50]

I think the only way Cousins should be allowed in Miami is if Wade goes. Otherwise the whinging douchebag count would be too high! lol

Seriously, it would be a great move for Miami, not convinced it is an actual chance of happening though.

I heard about Cavs trading Cousins for Noel which I would think is a better option!

I get it if Sacramento is wanting to part ways with Cousins and all the headaches he causes, but this is crazy. They can easily get more for Boogie and PPatt. Bosh is proving that he can't handle the load on his own and he makes more than those 2 combined. Windhorst is the Heat Index reporter for ESPN so of course they (ESPN) want him to put out rumors that would prop up the Heat. If anyone truly thinks after these playoffs that Bosh or Wade could get Miami players the caliber of Cousins you are just lying to yourself.

[snsdmonkey]

That's a terrible deal. We've already seen that a lone Bosh isn't enough for a team why does that change now?

[LeonfromNC]

This may not get done, but Bosh will be gone next season whether or not they win The Finals...

[zebrastar]

This would be welcomed by both teams, I think it sounds like a good trade. I really like Cousins but he needs to get out of Sacto just as badly as Sacto need to get him out.

[jbmets95]

good for both teams!!!

[440shane]

Please explain to me why this is good for Sacramento? A 28 yr old Bosh making 15 million knowing he can opt out in a year.... There were major rumors around Cleveland that Cavs may be willing to offer the #1 plus Zeller and a future pick for Cousins and take back Salmons' contract and were allegedly told that wasn't enough. So why in the world would they settle, yes settle, for Bosh? A new owner, kind of new lease on life in the city, new arena all that jazz wouldn't you have to believe that they would want to start brand new with the first pick in the draft and get out from Salmons' contract? I get it that Bosh is better than Zeller and Noel but with the new CBA kicking why would they add salary for 1 year and trade their best asset to do it...

[IamRalpho]

That is an absolutely terrible deal for SacTo

[showtimelakers]

The Kings would have to include Salmons or Thorton to make salary work. Possible scenario though. Wonder if the Heat would consider.

[xavieronly1]

So.... Sac Kings is the new Miami Cheesecake factory? Is King going to be a lottery team for next 50 years and keep on sending good players to Miami for free?

[CP3toOKC]

Wth are the kings gonna do with bosh? First they traded Thomas Robinson for Patrick Patterson, just so they would get rid of him again? Sac Kings = raped w/o lube.
