DeMarcus Cousins Gets Into Altercation With Donte Greene

eh who cares, he's been carrying the team as much as anyone. no reason to trade him.

The Kings are 13-38, nobody is carrying that team lol.

Eventually, his constant distractions will become too much. If he is this bad now, imagine what he will be like if he actually does develop into a star.

He's carrying them to a top three pick in the 2011 draft.

x2. I was going to say the exact same thing.

Here’s the thing that gets me about this whole situation. The unproven rookie picks a fight, starts a physical altercation with Donte Greene and was punished for it by his general manager. Call comes in to the team on the plane to take Cousins off of the plane and away from the team as punishment. Simple enough. Orders are followed, Cousins is removed. All is well.

Except it isn’t, because Garcia takes an offense to the decision to punish Cousins and he wants a different resolution. When the veteran on the team is standing up for the rookie, perhaps that rookie is speaking out about something that has been bothering more people on the team than just himself. If that’s the case, the Kings are in a mighty predicament.

It's too bad. I have always loved this kid and his natural raw talent at Kentucky, but he really needs to gather himself and get his head together.

He may need a good mentor to take him under his wings.
