@xBuddha Blessx
sounds like you are just going off Cousins stereotypes.  you probably haven't seen him play much. and he has never acted like a child or cried as bad as CP3 does on a daily basis and definitely never as bad as cp3 did tonight. CP3 acts like way more of an immature child with a bad attitude than Cousins does, but poeple will never see that because of Cousins reputation and the special treatment from the league for CP3
I never compared Cousins to CP3 though. That was Rck. I've seen Cousins play a whole lot to stick to what I said especially his first two years. He's calmed down a bit since then. Son use to throw hissy fits on the court at times. Bottom line when it comes to those two, CP3 is a star and Cousins isn't and more importantly CP3 does not have the reputation among refs that Cousins has. Simple as that.

I'm not denying that CP3 whines about calls. I'm not saying Cousins does it more or as bad as him either. I specifically said there's a double standard. Lets not act like this is special treatment just for CP3, this goes for most of the superstars in the league. Cousins is not one of them and with his short time in the league he's already damaged his rep enough where it's safe to say he'll probably never make his way in their good graces. At best he can reach a neutral playing field and favored only against other rookie or bad rep players.

Again, I wasn't the one to bring up Cousins. So I don't really need to go in to why he's treated the way he's treated in the league. Plenty players got problems with the refs. I'm just talking about how yall dudes seem so perplexed by why CP3 can get a pass for barking on a ref like that. This aint me defending everything that is CP3 either, just in that instance. He's one of my fav pgs in the league but I hate his flopping tactics the most. Outright shameful.

 
yep i agree with you man
 
I kinda like all these rivalry, scuffles/fights, etc..

none of that " lets be friends and work out together" BS *coughlebroncough*
 
riding in kangaroos with pet wombats 

i feel like bogut would be the kind of guy that would get drunk at a bar, take a private jet to new zealand just to take a dump on steven adam's doorstep



Doubit it. He and whoever is with him would get murked by Adams sister or the other 15 HUGE siblings for that matter. Google it if you don't know who am i talking about.
 
man gasol needs to be traded asap jesus christ , he cant defend **** or grab any rebound , chris bosh and wade scored like 16-20 2nd chance points  , we should have even offered him for derrick williams to minesota + a pick from them or something they would do the trade for sure he is far better than mute and rubio loves him 
 
:lol @ yall dudes. CP3 is a ******g star. He has a passion to win and wanted to win this game badly after all of the bs that went down. Refs know that, players too. Real recognize real.


Of course he's gonna get a pass for barking in dudes face. It looks bad but I'm pretty sure he wasn't throwing out a bunch of profanities at dude. He wouldn't stand for all that. Probably just yelling loud about being fouled more than once.


How yall can't get over that is what's beyond me. Complain about his flops and overall whining but don't become confused when he doesn't get a tech for being really competitive. There is a double standard so don't expect lames to get that pass.
THIS.

Just look at Demarcus Cousins.

He might not be a star or anything, but he's definitely up and coming. 

Obviously he has a BURNING ******g passion to win and always wants to win so hard. Everyone knows it.

Don't get that whining to refs or crying face confused with immaturity, bitterness, or petulance. Because it's definitely not any of that.

:lol

I actually agree with the first post though, and that goes for guys like Cousins and Westbrook as well :smokin

I love it when players are passionate, I'm cool with a little bit of antics, I know they hate losing and **** happens sometimes
 
Didn't even care about the games yesterday, I knew they would all be a bust. I did catch the 4th quarter of the Warriors/Clippers. Good game. Blake being thrown out was BS, he didn't do anything, BUT I like what it could potentially set up. Captain Jack was in the mix, and I think his prodding might help them be a healthy "tough" team if that makes any sense. I also hated ALL of those dumb shirts and warm ups from all teams. They need to ban all of it. I'm tired of these stupid marketing schemes of horrible ideas. 
 
Shame that only one game lived up to the hype on Christmas but what a game it was.

That spurs game lived up to the hype
Did it though?

Sike nah It did, I'm just not happy about the loss.

The Laker game wasnt hyped but it was a great game to me. Unfortunately I had to spent it around "Heat Fans" aka dudes who cant name anybody on the roster past the Big 3, Chalmers, and Ray Allen. Honestly since the whole Big 3 came about, I have no paitence for casual fans. Its annoying to watch these people scream over anything and just over rate anything the team does, then when you ask them the simplest of things they dont even know it. But you're a fan of this team and have been since day one.... Oh

Theres a guy who is a "fan" of the Knicks, Thunder, and Heat, and claims to be a diehard for all three. When the Heat played the Knicks in the playoffs dude was like "It doesnt matter who wins the series because either way my team wins" and said the same thing about the the OKC MIA Finals. How do people like this live with themselves :{ :{ :{

  Positive attitude I guess
 
Pretty sure Kobe was whispering to Lebron and Wade "Guise, I'll take 2mill for 2 years for you guys to get me one more ring. I'll back up Chalmers".

Swaggy P :hat

Bogut, fake tough guy

:eek I wouldn't trust people like that in real life :lol and I'm totally serious, that's awful :lol
 
Yeah running players into the ground and not calling time outs. What's not to like
People love Thibodeau, he destroys his players.

Even Popovich rebuilt his offense around many of D'antoni's principles.  That's how influential this guy has been to the modern era (and bringing us out of the hellhole that was the 85pt games of the early 2000s)

He only did that with Kobe for whatever reason. When he was with the Suns he always let Nash come out and go lay on the sideline with a heat pad on his 90 year old back.
 
Fairest criticism of D'Antoni is that he's been pretty inflexible.  If you aren't working in his offense, he's not changing it to make it work around you.  Iso-guys and slow big men are gonna be a problem.

As far as defense, he's been a middle-of-the-pack defensive coach his whole career.  And he did have Nash and Stoudemire starring on Phoenix, a tough challenge for anybody.

Who would? The lack of integrity is mind blowing.
