Cousins demands a trade!

I wonder what Cousins is so upset about? And who's to say he wouldnt be just as upset here?

People saying hes just immature and thats not a big deal are just wrong. There are soooo many red flags around this guy that I don't know if I want him here even tho he has an immense amount of talent.
 
I would love to have the kid(salivating at the idea of a favors-cousins frontcourt), but I seriously doubt Cousins is traded. His agent has come out and said no such demand was made. This is Westphal throwing Cousins under the bus to save his own job.

Definately a concern, but he's on a rookie contract. This is a gamble that should be seriously considered at the right price. If he didn't have red flags, we'd have no chance at him.

Having said that, I'd be surprised if Utah could work a deal around Al. Someone will offer something better.
 
UK homer. Dude has huge red flags.

I'm a UK homer, yes. But I have been 100% fair in all assessments (UK players or rivals, etc.). I expected better from you because you tend to collect your own empirical data rather than forming your opinion through media hacks and message board folk. I like you and your takes, that's why I expected better.
 
Is Cousins friends with Kanter or Favors? That could maybe make him like it here more than Sacramento.

No that is called trying to maintain max trade value so a deal can actually get done.

I recall only seeing you talk only positive about UK players. I am amused you think you are "100% fair."

You recall totally wrong. I cautioned that Kanter has limited lift and explosiveness. I have been way down on Marquis Teague as a PG. I've been high on Kidd-Gilchrist because he deserves it. I've also been high on Rivers (Duke), Beal (Florida), Miller (Baylor), etc, etc.

Oh yeah, I also cautioned against Knight's ability to blow by a defender (slow first-step).

Anyway, I guess this is where everyone piles on and says I'm wrong although everything I've said here is still archived and anything opposite will be nowhere to be found. Such is message boards.
