DeMarcus Cousins demands trade......

What you guys think? Should Rox make a push for Cousins? I think the kid has alot of talent. What you think the Kings would want in return?

first of all WOW, i just came back and first thing i see on the WT is cousins demands a trade!

hayes couldnt defend him well at all last season. cousins had some of his best games vs houston. i dunno anything about his defense. i like the 1blk/stl, but does that translate into good man to man defense? can he help guard the paint with sammy d?

im not thinking much about this right now but i will later. gotta eat soon

Too immature...he can produce when he wants to. But if McNair thinks he can mold this lump of play doh then I say go for it. Offer a 2nd rounder for him

ughhhh I don't know. Dude has potential to be very good but he's immature and he's a head case. Everything that made scouts scared to draft him has come true. Lmao @ second rounder for a player as talented as cousins, that makes ZERO sense I don't care how much of an idiot he is....

If Morey really lives and dies by the number crunching he does, then Morey won't give up much at all for a center that hasn't shot above 40% and isn't great on d, right?

Not saying I wouldn't want him, but I don't know what I would be ok with giving up especially since he's proven to be about as mature as my four year old cousin and could demand a new trade first time he doesn't get his way

If miraculously we only gave up thabeet or hill OR if we got Hayes or thorton back too(I know it wouldn't happen) that's the only way I'd be completely comfortable with getting him

Cousins has been a difficult teammate to play with.

“He’s selfish,” one source close to the team said of Cousins. “He’s always angry or clowning. He needs to change. The Kings have been great about covering things up for him, and his agent has been protecting him.

“He’s always miserable. He acts like he’s entitled.”

Some players are frustrated with his lack of professionalism.

“He’s a bully, and they let him get away with it,” one source said. “No one wants to deal with the guy.”

My opinion. last thing we need is another Terrence Williams with a piss poor attitude and isn't all that.

7 footers with his skillset don't grow on trees, and they're also not available without some baggage

wasn't Morey trying to trade up to get him in the draft 2 years ago?

I myself don't see much of a risk in trading for Cousins as long as it does not involved Lee or Patterson.

Also no Lowry but I don't think they would want Lowry since they have Evens

but twill's attitude has improved. The coaches are giving him more playing time, very unselfish on floor. Even his tweeting has improved lol. He's a real team-oriented guy now.
