    Bosh was never a head case. He was pretty much a solid citizen.

    If we get Cousin, then Harden must be traded. the two guys can't work, any team will get 120p every game

    Boston should offer their brooklyn pick and maybe another first rounder and see if Sacramento bites.

    Did Cousins get traded and start winning? When did that happen?

    And FTR I never thought of Bosh like this, I don't think anyone did.

    As another poster stated, ZBo is a better comparison. But it took ZBo several years and a few teams before it finally clicked. Will that happen for Cousins? Hopefully. But it's not happening this year.

    Long term? Definitely.

    Exactly what I thought. I never expected Zbo to be salvageable. But Memphis took a chance and they got a changed man.

    Not only that but Cousins is an even more talented player than Zbo...his upside is through the roof.

    They got an older and wiser Z Bo who had failed spectacularly for a few years running both on and off the court. I don't think Cousins is at the point to have the self awareness of how destructive his behavior is.

    Rockets don't have the leadership necessary to handle him.

    it would take a GREAT coach to get cousins and harden to play together. i mean you need phil to manage kobe and shaq.

    unless we can land pop, carlisle, phil out of retirement, go crawling back to adelman... i just don't see it working well.

    Can Rick the Ruler strike again?

    Piece by Peace, it's possible.

    This is Vivek's dumbass fault. Why in the world did they fire Coach Malone?

    This. The stupid owner made an idiotic decision that started a chain of events still spiraling out of control.

    Vivek should fire himself.

    Rondo/Howard could be a sick combo, won't happen but if anyone could make Dwight look even better it would be him

    I hope Karl gets canned, he is the coach I would target in the offseason.
