Kings: DeMarcus Cousins Cursed Out George Karl in Front of the Team

[HarlemHeat37]

The coach just beat cancer...give him a break.

I wasn't referring to Karl..he's a ty coach that clashes with players, but I don't blame him for this in particular..

Cousins is the biggest cancer in the NBA, tbh..what I find strange is that the media and fans love him, including White people..they usually detest players that behave the way that he does, I genuinely don't know why this pussy gets a pass for it..Carmelo and Kobe are labeled as cancers and have been hated by mainstream media for the past few years, Dwight Howard has the same personality as Cousins and is widely hated by both fans and media..Iverson was loved by young people, but hated by the older generation..Lebron was a villain for choosing a team in Free Agency..

The NFL is even worse..Randy Moss, Terrell Owens and every other WR that ever said a word about wanting the ball more

Boogie at times is a top 5 player in the league. I would take Cousins over Anthony Davis as my starting C for a franchise tbh. Has a superior lowpost game and overall better feel for the game. Just doesnt have the right coaching or FO to surround him with better players. Sure he acts like an immature child at times but what do you expect when youre surrounded by nothing but yes men since you come into the league?

Duncan was fortunate to have come into a team with a bunch of veterans to help him. Who knows how his career wouldve been in Boston.

Serious, though..why is Dwight Howard constantly criticized for being a mental midget that people wouldn't want on their teams(and rightfully so), yet most of the same fans say they would love having Cousins on their team?..

for example , Bill Simmons being on his balls thinking his whole act is kind cute whereas the it doesn't really differ from any high profile cancerous star behavior the league has hitherto known..

i sense excuses.

He's full of them

I disagree,,I would take Demarcus Cousins over both Davis or Drummond,,,,but was just asking between the two.

Lol Cousins, mental midget in the same mold as Dwight How-odd

Talking on the court,,,not off. I guess Davis is a mental midget since he hasn't done either,,,

I'm talking about on the court as well. Cousins routinely loses his cool on court, and that leads to losses. He'd be unstoppable if he had an IQ above double digits.

Cousins is a liability. He's had how many years and still he's a tool.

Boban.. lol

How many in' years did it take for Z-Bo to turn it around? (same w/ Rasheed) It doesn't in' matter how long he has been in the league as long as he's a toxic environment devoid of leadership/vets.

And yeah Drummond got his shyt pushed back twice in garbage time by Boban ......there is a reason SVG left him out there in garbage time.

Howard aint got on Cousins, but I think alot of it has to do with his offensive game being exposed along with his fallout with SVG. If SVG had Boogie in Detroit theyd be in the ECF.

lol why would sac want 2 busts and a chucker for an AS?

Because the Kings haven't even had a sniff of contention since he's been there. You could say some of that is his fault, but they're a terrible franchise. If DHo had been stuck on small market cellar dwellers I doubt you'd hear as much about him.

Kwame for Pau worked, so I figured why not?

People like Cousins b/c he is actually FUNDAMENTALLY sound unlike Dwight. There is nothing wrong w/ his game, he's actually a willing passer & a good teammate unlike Carmelo/Kobe. It's his at ude toward coaches/refs that rubs people wrong & folks are willing to overlook that b/c he plays for the team w/ the worst front office in the league. It's not like he has ever had a stable team around him since he came into the league as a hot headed 20 year old.

Basically, he can't be the leader of a team & needs to be surrounded by vets ala Rasheed. The guy definitely wants out of Sacramento & is tired of losing. It wasn't too long ago that Z-Bo was the biggest cancer in the league before he landed in Memphis.

How long as Cousins been in the league?

When you re-sign with the same ty franchise for bigger bucks, you should just accept what you're in it for.

He was going to be a RESTRICTED free agent; he signed the contract right after Ranadive bought the team & promised to assemble a playoff team around him. They even gave Shaq minority ownership to convince him. His agent demanded a trade this past summer when they realized the front office was no better than the Maloofs.

LoL @ him signing for a bigger buck when his contract is actually a bargain. He also donated 1 million to charity after he signed his contract. The guy isn't some evil dude that people make him out to be; he just has never had a mentor & has anger problems. Rasheed wasn't any better than Cousins at the same point in his career despite being surrounded by vets & playing for a contender. Some people just need a change of scenery just like some people need to file for divorce b/c their past is going to haunt them if they stay put.

Because Cousins isn't a ing goofball like Dewey is. People don't like Dewey because they see him trying to be funny and a character while he misses free throws and commits dumb fouls and they don't think he's serious. When Cousins blows up it's seen as misplaced intensity ("Hey, this guy just wants to win and is frustrated.") IMO.

[Clipper Nation]

Cousins reminds me a lot of ZBo at this stage of his career, but I'm really doubting that Cousins will ever grow up and pull his head out of his ass like Randolph did in Memphis.

I don't know in general, but I kind of feel sorry for Cousins TBH. As much as a lot of his infamy is brought on by his own actions, he has also been in a loosing situation for a long time, when you have seen coaches and teammates come and go and its always the same or worse. It gets frustrating after a while for anyone to see the franchise is not making any progress in the direction of winning.

I don't like him, but he is talented, and I do feel sorry for him at this point. His immaturity and lack of character will keep him in a loosing situation no matter where he goes though. At some point, he has to take responsibility for his own fate.

[Seventyniner]

Cousins is just being held back by an incompetent franchise, just like Jimmer

[pgardn]

continue to play hard.

Divac said after saying Karl did not have the authority to suspend Cousins

When, exactly, did the Kings BEGIN to play hard. You can tell Vlade is all Laker. What a Fckn idiot.

[BatManu20]

So when do the Celtics trade one of their lottery picks for Cousins?

[Kawhitstorm]

He's going beast mode on Drummond, Celtics will be a contender if they land Cousins.
