People sleep on him because Anthony Davis has all the hype but dude just put up a 23/12/3 season with 1.3 blocks and 1.5 steals :lupe: Dude just needs to cut down the turnovers and improve the defense and :wow:

His maturity is still an issue. So many times I see people get under his skin affecting his play.

Offensively he can be great, defensively he is awful, center is the most vital position defensively and I doubt he will ever be good on that end. maybe average at best one day. Davis way more potential.

So much right in this post. Cousins needs to just block out the negative and just play ball (easier said than done I know). I think offensively he is on point, and yes his defense is very suspect. I think if he had good veteran leadership to whip him into shape he can EASILY be one of the best centers in the league. Sacremento really isn't a place for bringing the best outta young players.

Yeah pretty much what y'all said is spot on. He signed the extension so it's on him to lead the squad and the front office to put the right pieces around him. Word going around is they are still trying to get Rondo, which would do WONDERS for Cousins offensively.

He's been putting in crazy work the last couple offseasons with his body and it's been noticeable as the season has gone on. All dude wants to do is win if you watch him game to game, it definitely gets confused sometimes with him being a baby.:yeshrug:

All in all offensively he has all the tools to be the best big man in the NBA and honestly in this current NBA landscape if you a big man who can stay healthy while being able to kill it offensively the sky's the limit:salute:
