This is not the right approach in posting something like this -- especially at an opposing team's board who lost against your team. If you have something better to say, you are more than welcome here. If not, well...you know.


So, as a Kings' fan, you don't find Cousins absolutely infuriating? I'd be begging for him to leave. He's all-time great talent with a juvenile mentality. The juvenile mentality comes out at a 10:1 ratio over his talent.

Some do. Some don't. I'm on the fence, honestly.

That ratio is an exaggeration. The guy can be grating when his inner baby comes out but he does more good than bad, overall.

The team around Cousins is pretty mediocre. Did you see the game? The Blazers had a great game plan against Cousins and forced the other Kings players to beat them but no one stepped up. Cousins is on an island.

Cousins is for sure on an island. . . It's painful seeing the Kings so uncompetitive. And I don't mean that as a slight. A Blazers-Kings game like this, an 8/9 seed matchup, sucks.

So I get it, it's ok for a troll to say whatever because he/she responds with as a kings fan you don't find Cousins absolutely infuriating?
Wow

thats a good loss, that 4 game winning streak looks good on paper but we played against a struggling portland an injury plague jazz team a wolves and sixers that are just bad teams and all of them were close games...prior to that we got demolished by a mavs team. this is still a bad team despite sitting at the 8th spot with no real good assets to trade with other teams.

I agree somewhat.
No we aren't a good team just yet, however I believe out of almost the entire NBA this team has the biggest potential. That is the biggest potential to improve or the biggest potential to regress.
I believe we are only a move away from having that team that is MUCH improved, it would take a move for a great fit but it's possible.
It could really catapault the team into the playoffs or we can stand pat and fall away late in the year and not only lose a playoff spot but our pick as well

with how bad the west has been this year every team in the bottom west are in playoff contention, it just needs that right spark/timing to catapult that certain team kinda like what portland did last year. getting that right fit of a player would help us a lot, even improved coaching decision/player management would help us a lot. would be interesting to see what vlade does before the trade deadline..

Aren't we ahead of Portland in the standings right now? And didn't we just beat you with a healthy Lillard?
