Yes, no guy has ever come out of college after four years immature.

Elliot said ZERO wrong, which makes Cousins’ post-game meeting even more ridiculous. Again, read what Elliot said and tell me exactly what he said that was personal toward Cousins.

Your points were valid, until u got ignorant with the Crips/Bloods nonsense. If cousins, in the heat of the moment was immature, [which I'm not in no way shape or form condoning, cause he does need 2 grow up and stop acting like a child] you Sir .. well you have taken immaturity to a whole new level… grow up!!

I would like to hear of a local announcer that doesn’t talk bad about the other team’s players. Especially when that player is talking so much trash about the announcers good friend. cousins should quit the NBA and join the crips or bloods.

“If you can’t handle public criticism — even of things you feel or know not to be true — playing in the NBA is going to be rough for you”

Well said. I don’t think Cousins seems like a bad guy, but he does seem to have anger management issues. Sometimes it does seem like he needs to grow up a bit (his response to not making the Olympic team, his response to routine foul calls during games, verbally going after a broadcaster).

As for whether it’s fair or not, the NBA is a billion dollar industry, and thousands of families depend on the income it generates. Playing in the NBA and drawing those pay checks is a privilege, not a right. I am sorry if he feels picked on but he just needs to keep his head down and keep working and he’ll be fine.

Maybe if these guys were actually required to go to classes, pass them and stay longer than one and done, maybe Mr. Cousins would be better equipped to handle a little criticism.
