Dan Hamilton-USA TODAY Sports Lost in the din of Andre Igoudala’s late-game heroics that saved the Golden State Warriors from going down 0-2 in the Finals was DeMarcus Cousins’ big game in his second game back from a quad injury. Cousins was Steve Kerr’s trump card in Game 2 as the former All-Star big man put his stamp on this series in his first career start in the Finals. After warming up for an 8-minute, off-the-bench stint in Game 1, Cousins got the starting nod and rewar

When you think about DeMarcus Cousins you might think of his recent antics with Kevin Durant and Zach Randolph but what the casual fan might not know he is probably the best big man in the league right now. On December 8th, Cousins was on the free throw line late in the fourth quarter and opposing big man Zach Randolph made a statement that all could understand if they had eyes that could read lips. “Where I’m from, bullies get bullied,” Randolph said with Cousins right next

DeMarcus Cousins made his triumphant return to Sacramento last Thursday as a member of the New Orleans Pelicans. To say that he played well would be an ultimate understatement. He finished the game with 41 points, 23 rebounds, and 6 assists in a win for a Pelicans team that was without Anthony Davis and the majority of the players on their roster. Cousins seems to be in a better place in his career with New Orleans and was very open about his time in Sacramento. He also share

DeMarcus Cousins’ has a reputation for undermining team chemistry by recurrently clashing with referees and coaches instead of focusing his efforts on winning. In Sacramento, he was characterized as a malcontent, blamed as the scapegoat for a perpetually toxic environment. Fair or not, it was obvious by February that Boogie was available via trade, but GM’s were terrified of what he might do to disrupt locker room cohesion. If you’re a small market team, you have to make some

Just a few hour after the NBA All-Star Game, Adrian Wojnarowski dropped the biggest news of the weekend. The Sacramento Kings, after promising DeMarcus Cousins privately and publicly that he wouldn’t be moved prior to Thursday’s NBA trade deadline, agreed to trade the center to the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday night, league sources told The Vertical. The Pelicans are sending guards Buddy Hield, Tyreke Evans and Langston Galloway, and 2017 first- and second-round picks to th

There is a revolution happening before our very own eyes. It is the reoccurrence of the big man taking back their place in the game. So much scrutiny placed on this position in the last few years while guard-dominated basketball has taken over the league. The biggest evidence of this was the center position being taken out of the All-Star balloting. Who is to blame for the declining interest in the position? Analytics? Trends of NBA offense in a copycat league? Maybe it’s a c

The Sacramento Kings had a… let’s call it an interesting off season. The Kings drafted a Center in the first round, again, and it made their All-Star Center/franchise player DeMarcus Cousins confused. That’s twice they used a high draft pick on a position where they already have an All-Star caliber player, and they have Kosta Koufos, a solid center playing the backup role. They also lost Rajon Rondo, and replaced him with Ty Lawson (who I still believe in as a player, but I w
