Cousins stays butting heads with the coaching staff. The question is who would you keep as a Kings fan? The coaching staff with a new starting lineup every game or the "immature" rookie with a lot of potential?

And Spencer Hawes never cared enough. Cousins on the other hand cares too much about and overestimates his impact on the game. He needs a teacher and Westphal isn't one.

And that's exactly why I don't like taking the one and done players. The coaches who teach are in college, the coaches who manage are in the NBA.

But most of the time, the most talented players are one and done.

Interesting reasoning. Although there are some coaches in the league that can teach and manage. Of course coaches like Phil Jackson, Larry Brown, and Pops aren't exactly going to want to coach the Kings. So you aren't taking John Wall with the #1 pick? The Kings aren't talented to win it all right now so having a coach that develops the young players is more important. Having a coach that doesn't have a consistent system and doesn't develop is just annoying... 

@Kyle Singler comment. You know he will be on your second favorite team, the Pacers, or the Jazz somehow. Lol.

I was amazed Chase Budinger didn't end up on either of those teams..... Although my Singler comment was a joke... if Greene/Casspi doesn't pan out, would Singler be a good gamble? The anti-Cousins

Demarcus got kicked out practice today for arguing with Westphal. He was also fined.

The Kings had a winning record when Cousins started in the beginning of the season... I would like to see the team use Cousins in half court sets more. Landry is kinda predictable and he can't really make plays when his mid-range jumper is off. Tyreke is not at 100% and should get some rest. I hate to see him with the ball and the team just watching him go one on one. He is useful in fast breaks still, but he gotta look for his open teammates more and not as a last resort thing.

Collison, Granger, and Hibbert is a good trio. The Kings need one more piece to go along with Tyreke and Cousins. I just don't know if it should be a PG or a SF.
