Cousins' position 

Post#1 » by shangrila » Wed May 26, 2010 11:50 am

Let's settle this once and for all because there seems to be a varying opinion.

I believe he's a centre. He's got the size, strength and length to play their full time and, to me at least, obviously can't play on the perimeter.

What say you?

I don't know if he's a centre or not but he is a center.

OJ Mayo is one of the best defenders in the league, hes a two way player and hes a great passer and playmaker.

I voted PF, but if he plays center he will be undersized. I spose you could still stick him at center, but it seems like Wolves fans are trying to convince themselves he will be fine there.

Hes a center...but I don't see a problem with two center lineups (Duncan/Robinson, Olajuwon/Sampson, Gasol/Bynum, Cousins/Milicic)

Undersized? If he's undersized for a center then Aldrich is a small forward.

Stop torturing me Klomp! I'm already trying hard not to remain detached from Kurosawa's "Cousins could be drafted before Turner" argument!
