The Official 2013-14 Golden State Warriors Thread | Page 25

I've defended him for years, but Boogie Cousins is this generations' Rasheed Wallace. He's both tantalizing and infuriating to watch.

The Kings obviously got a steal with the 5th pick in Cousins. But they'd have been better off if they sold high on his potential....instead of committing so much to a guy like that. I understand why they committed to Cousins, given their arena/ownership issues, and the need to have an immediate marketable star player to reinvigorate the basketball community in SacTown.

But seriously....making Boogie Cousins the face of your franchise is just insanity. They should have dangled him for a real franchise cornerstone.

Wait a couple years and you'll agree with me. Trust me.

Boogie definitely has Sheeditis.

And maybe you'd settle for that..

But personally Id sell high on him

I'm not saying that NBA players have to be saints. But if you're gonna build a team around a player...then that guy needs to have strong leadership qualities to earn the respect of the lockerroom. Can you honestly tell me that Cousins has that? Lol

I've missed the last two games but klaydoe is ballin so far! He took a hit at the beginning of last season, shooting for terrible shooting percentages, but his game is on an entirely different level a full year later

Well first off, he's only 23 years old. Secondly, this is his first year with a real NBA coach, and real NBA organization.

He's already made huge strides in his maturation and leadership. You'd know that if you were a kings fan and followed everything he and the team has done.

Stick to talking about the warriors cause you seem to know more about them
