The Sacramento Kings trade DeMarcus Cousins ($3.9 million, 2 years), Marcus Thornton ($7.5 million, 3 years) and Thomas Robinson ($3.4 million, 4 years) for Kevin Love ($13.7 million, 4 years) and Nikola Pekovic ($4.8 million, 1 year).
Cousins is is about as good as you can expect to get back for Love. Robinson and Derrick Williams, both with that Paul Milsap feeling that they will be great if given the time, will compete for time as the starting power forward or the sixth man. The Timberwolves still lack at the shooting guard position, and Marcus Thornton provides them with one of the better options in the league.
The Kings get the best power forward in the NBA. They also get Pekovic starting at center, a familiar front court. Robinson could easily be switched out with Williams in the trade.

If you want the ultimate, you've got to be willing to pay the ultimate price. It's not tragic to die doing what you love.

Ha from a talent stand point maybe... I stress maybe but from a chemistry standpoint that makes no sense for Minny.

Sacramento/Minnesota trade
I just hate how every time he misses a shot or gets fouled, just like Pau does, he screams haha. Other than that, he's decent. I don't watch him enough to see his skill. It's kinda like how every king fan over values tyreke because we watch him every day so they think we can get the moon for him lol...I have no problems with pekovic but I think without love, his numbers decrease a lot
