    His last 3 games he's played have been unreal.

    Back to back triple doubles 20/20/10 and three straight 20/20 games. :eek:

    It's crazy how much talent he has but no help.

    Love his game.

    Funnest head to head match up for me at the moment is AD v Demarcus Cousins.

    Curious to see if Sacramento's owner will still want to play fast even though he has one of the best young big centers in the game.

    Those are some ridiculous numbers.

    Those numbers are great but it is hard to tell because they have nothing to lose. Case in point, I am a great putter when it comes to practice but when I am on a real game, just average. Why, because each putt counts. Remember the FIFA games when he almost swung at a player for something unintentional?

    He is not blowing up anymore just like in the beginning maybe due to that so he is playing much better. Nobody questions his skills, it's the thing between his ears that folks are concerned about. Time will tell.

    Easily my fav player to watch, very underrated. It would be awesome to have a inside threat like him with James...

    Yeah but he's still collecting the L's so it really doesn't mean much. His team isn't winning because of those numbers.

    To me, empty stats guys are guys who don't care about winning so long as they get their stats. Boogie Cousins isn't that guy. He is a fierce competitor. I'd love to have him on our team and I really dread the idea of him landing some place like San Antonio when he becomes a free agent.

    Cousins and Westbrook have been putting up absolutely fantastic numbers lately. Pretty awesome.

    If Durant bounces from OKC, I'd love to see Westbrook team up with Cousins.

    we have to find a way to get him to houston.

    harden and cousins are league leaders in FTM. we'd absolutely KILL teams on offense by scoring at will from everywhere on the floor: inside, outside, half court, fast break, get teams in the penalty and punish them.

    sell everything to pair these 2 together!

    realistically, dwight and boogie's contracts expire the same summer. its possible to either let dwight walk and sign boogie OR trade them in the final year of their contracts for each other.

    if going into the 2016-2017 season the kings haven't been close to the playoffs and are afraid boogie will leave AND dwight misses most of next year from knee surgery or injuries. we could send them dwight as an expiring contract, one of our 3 young bigs (dmo, tj, capela) and whoever we pick with the pelicans pick.

    He should be averaging 15-17 free throws a game MINIMUM for how much he gets hacked.

    I smell a knicks/lakers trade using their top 3 pick.
