I think he would be great with us. Michael Beasley is called "toxic" in most of the NBA franchises, and he seemed a player with future playing with us last year.
...and the team couldn't get rid of him fast enough. Doesn't that tell you something?!
Of course it does. The difference between his performance here and in Phoenix also does.
I think DeMarcus (what a name, uh?) would be a nice center with us. Not everybody can do it great trying to be the franchise player of a ruined franchise. It's kind of John Wall situation in Washington: nobody thinks Wall isn't an awesome player, but he's not a franchise player to build around him. Maybe DeMarcus could be a good second option after Love, or third option after Ricky, like Gasol is better being the second option after Kobe Bryant than the 1st in Memphis.
Maybe in some years ahead, somebody makes great business getting Cousins for less than 10 million (I doubt it, but who knows), he begins to play nicely and I can hear the words of Kenny "He allways had it, sometimes you have to wait to be responsable, not everybody grows up the same..." and others cliches.
