Cousins plays worse defense than Whiteside and would be very expensive to keep.


The guy is a defensive liability but superstar on the offensive end. Not saying no to that.

What? Cousins is not a defensive liability, never has been anything close to that.

Hassan was playing injured.

Not saying Hassan doesn't have his deficiencies on that end, but you could give him some slack there.

Wait, you rather have Jonas Valancunias over Whiteside? I do not agree if that is what you are implying

He might not be Shaq.... but is better than Valancunias... HW has not reached his ceiling. He just started to buy into "The Process" and gradually get better

No lol
