I don't know how anyone would consider Cousins a better prospect. Maybe if they both came out of school this year you could argue that Cousins will be better in the NBA. But we've seen Cousins in the NBA, and it hasn't been pretty. I'll take Anthony Davis over Cousins any day.
Gotta say I didn't expect the poll to be this close. Maybe if you're just talking about talent you could make a case for Cousins, but Cousins has some issues with defense, getting in shape, EQ (although his bball IQ is pretty damn high) and just effort/dedication to the game of bball. Davis is uglier but I think he's more athletic and his head seems to be screwed on rihgt.
LOL what are you smoking? Asik is much better than Cousins. All Cousins has is "Potential" right now, Asik and Davis give you the better P: Production.
If by "better," you mean "helps you win basketball games," then yes, Asik is better than Cousins and I suspect Anthony Davis already is as well. Cousins is bad on defense and inefficient on offense.
Gotta go with my boy Boogie. And yes, I have watched him play plenty of times vice just looking at box scores. His talent isn't in question IMO, it's his emotions getting the best of him and his questionable decision making. His rookie season showed him being a capable passer but that seems to have digressed over time. No, he's not fat or lazy for the ones who don't watch. AND HE'S ONLY 22.
15 points and 8 rebounds on 39% shooting. Its only 3 games, but he's not playing good right now. The last 2 season he shot 42% and 45%.
You CAN'T be serious. But I know you are.... Its like saying Greg Ostertag was better than Zach Randolph cuz Randolph's production didnt match his "potential"
Davis has exceptionally good foot speed and handles for a PF. He's still filling out his frame and as a rookie big is holding up surprisingly well so far in the NBA. He has a solid midrange jumper, soft touch around the basket, high BBIQ and good defensive instincts. Give him a few years to develop and get bigger and watch him dominate. He'll fit the mold of another KG/ Duncan. Demarcus has attitude problems and low BBIQ.
As of right now, Cousins. If you are asking me which one I'd rather start a franchise with, going off the track record of Cousins alone, I'd go with Davis (since it is still unknown how he will pan out). But Cousins could still turn things around and DOMINATE THE LEAGUE!
