What's new

That's why the Kings are winning, we need someone like Rondo!

Kings are 8 of their last 10 riding Cousins.
He is the 3rd leading scorer and 4th leading rebounder in the league.
And you wouldn't trade a dead guy. That's homer.

You think a man with about 500 days of head coaching experience could reign in Cousins? He's burned through, what, 6 coaches so far? Several removed specifically because they weren't getting through to him.

I mean, look at Boogie's scouting reports from 6 years ago: https://www.nbadraft.net/players/demarcus-cousins

The weaknesses read the same as they would right now. If he hasn't matured by now, what makes you think he'd miraculously do it here in Utah under Snyder?

Your lack of faith in Snyder is a separate topic, but I'm game.
 
Such idiocy in this thread.
Why do u think Hack is always complaining about me singing the same tune. Jazzfanz is infested with idiots.
Pray tell, what historical example can you cite of a team being able to ride a player of Cousins' level of issue to a championship?
Bad boys Pistons??? Rondo with the Celtics. He had his issues even then.
Let's bump this thread when Kings are actually in the playoff.

But as much I love Fav, in a heartbeat I would swap him for arguably the best center of league in Boogie.
There is nothing arguable about that. Cousins is easily the best
As far as that draft is concerned(2010), I'd still rather have Favors than Cousins. Crazies gonna craze, and I think the Kings are going to eventually trade Cousins for cents on the dollar.
As much as I love Favors this is about as dumb a post I've seen on jazzfanz. This so LOL worthy.
 
His superhuman abilities have given them a record of 5-8 in games within 5 pts. The Jazz have a way worse record at 5-9 in games within 5.
 
Serious. Unfortunately the Kings are figuring it out and Boogie is going to continue to explode.

Cousins is my favorite NBA player. The vast majority of his "issues" are ESPN created, and blown way out of proportion. **** ESPN.

Didn't Rondo and Cousins get into it a while back, with Rondo instigating and Cousins defending, but getting ejected and fined for defending himself because of his ESPN created reputation?

Celtics rode Rondo to the title? I thought they rode three hall of famers. Silly me.

Obviously, you can have a role player with issues and that's fine. See Rodman. But I've never heard of a first option having this many issues and someone calming him down enough and contending. Unless you figure if the Jazz were somehow to obtain Boogie, he would NOT be the first option and Hayward would.
 
Sacramento will not make the playoffs as long as Jazz are even semi-healthy. No way.

Wait a minute. Maybe they can make it if James Harden suffers a season ending injury.

So what did Rondo do great in this that helped them win?

He caused Korver to drop the pass that would have given him a wide open 3 had he controlled the ball that went through both his hands?

Or are we just talking about how he screamed at a player to get in the position he was supposed to be in but was too dumb to figure it out on his own and the coach seems to be doing nothing for this team since his hands are tied?

Rondo is playing better but Kings took a huge risk, he was terrible the season before. If they make the playoffs then good job but there is still plenty of time for that team to implode. Lets hold judgment until the make it somewhere. Demarcus is actually helping his team win and is somewhat more in control despite needing to cry every play. But I am not sure he has the ability to stay under control and handle the playoffs. Guess we will wait and see how he does, if he ever makes it.
 
Apparently Jazz fans don't remember Malone.

I think every off season he threatened to leave and/or beat up ostertag.

And if you think he and Sloan always saw eye to eye then I have beach front property in Kansas to sell ya!
 
He may. But you know what is guaranteed not to happen? Neto becoming as good as Rondo, or Favors becoming as good as Cousins.

Are you fine with him waving of plays, playing defense when he wants to? Because that's what guaranteed to happen. Especially if he gets frudtrated with no space offense.

Jordan ****ed up.
Kobe ****ed up.
Magic ****ed up.

They can't all be Stockton.

Are you really comparing Rondo to All-Time Greats?

You can have a beach on a lake...in Kansas.
