He was dealing with a groin/hamstring injury early in the year and those can be nagging. Going with Temple/Toliver/Afflalo move was the typical trend of ultra safe moves (only to watch it backfire) drafting WCS and getting scared on Marquiese Chriss etc. this past year. I hope they are keeping Cousins because they have a real plan, not because its the safe thing to do.
I hope the FO is actually picking talent based on evaluation and not factoring in fan backlash(we dodged a bullet
) with these moves, they
SHOULD have more knowledge than us when it comes to these things.
-Skipped signing Monta Ellis because kings twitter roasted the idea(Ellis had a good couple of years in Dallas and could have helped us)
-Not signing Dion Waiters because of what fans might think
-The Granddaddy of kings twitter moves was hiring George Karl
Unlike some others Waiters was definitely attainable and seeing as how we have no one who can create a look for themselves outside of Cousins he would have been a perfect flier.
Outside of Cousins improving is our roster any better than it was when Pete left? The "Vets" show up once in a while but still not a single player who can consistently produce outside of Cousins.
