Kings Remove DeMarcus Cousins From Team Plane Following Altercation

i was talking about game 5.

I do generally agree with you that game 3 was one of Dirk's most disappointing performances of his career. My point was even though he failed to come through in the clutch that game he did almost everything in his power to will the team to victory in game 5.

Tbh, another what if no one remembers is at the very end of game 6 of the 2006 finals the Heat were up by 3 and all D-Wade needed to do was make 1 outa 2 free throws to ice the game. He misses both and Terry has a wide open 3 to send it to overtime that he bricks. If Terry makes that 3 and Miami ends up imploding, Wade goes down as the "choker" in that series.

Wade played out of his mind during that series, so I don't if he'd be labeled a choker. It would take a lot of "what ifs" for that to happen, though.

nahh

SA just sucks bro

So that is what happened in Philly ... thanks!

You can't have too many headcases on one team, and it looks like the Kings might. Cousins has the potential to be a great player, but he never will be if his emotions get the better of him all the time.

He won't be playing tonight against the Suns, which is good for us.

But but but the great Tiago Splitter owned him!!!!!!!

Splitter rules forever!!!!!!!!!!!!

He's had his big moments as well, noone is saying he chokes every single time... t Game 7 of the semis still hurts. But he's also had his share of dissapearances, which for a player of his caliber will definitely be remembered more than games he did well in. Game 3 where they snatched defeat from the jaws of victory were Dirk had 1 FGA down the stretch, Game 6 turnover at the end and allowing Terry to shoot all the shots, the way he got manhandled vs GS the following yr, etc.

Well, the most notable example is your post saying Durant >>> Dirk using facts that were blatantly false and then being forced to move the goal posts.

I said this was Durant's 3rd year when its his 4th, and I stood corrected. I never said Durant >>> Dirk though...my point was simply that Durant may or may not end up being a choker, but as of right now he doesnt have the resume that Dirk has when it comes to choking. You cant take this one instance were he choked and be "well if that was Dirk hed get soo much for it". Dirk deserves that label because he's worked hard to get it, Durant still hasnt done any choking in crucial situations during the playoffs.

although i would take durant over dirk tbh

that just wasnt my point

This guy is absolute garbage. How westphal let's him play n the last 5 minutes is beyond me. He had 2 turnovers and 2 fouls in the last few minutes that could have cost SAC the game. If I was a GM, I wouldn't have drafted this lazy, low BBIQ, whining piece of

[ElNono]

Co-sign. He has such smug about him, sense of en lement... I really can't wait until one of his teammates just knocks him out cold and puts him in his place...

lol Cousins..guy has so much talent too.

[LakerHater]

WAY to hotheaded!

[ElNono]

Unfortunately for him, you don't mess with Bob Delaney like that and expect no repercussions...

[LakerHater]

Webster comes up and puts his hands on Cousins, he wasnt walking towards or confronting anybody on the wolves. Webster walks up and pushes him back, Cousins reacts, and he gets tossed. WTF!!

[ElNono]

Actually, it looks like he threw a punch or said something to Ridnour, then Ridnour pushed him, then the hit the fan... lol @ picking on Luke

[Pelicans78]

This is why Cousins should have stayed in school longer. He had the talent to play in the league, but the not maturity to handle the losing.
