that was amazing defense, gotta admit. against a 7 foot athletic strong center like dwight howard, he blocked, played good on ball defense and made d howard turnover almost 4 times. and hes only in his rookie year, is 3-4 years, he will become a dominant force, but not like dwight of course, cousins will block more shots, make more shots, get more minutes and play great defense, and finally get out of that terrible excuse for a team and show his real talent!

@cowdust51 John Wall definitely would have won it if it weren't for Blake Griffin. Even if you didn't want him to. He was the media's definite second choice. I personally think that Wall deserved to win it over Cousins if that were the case. His stats were better.
@lasoogneypubes Just like in determining other awards, stats only tell half the story. John Wall may have been better at UK nut not in the L. Cousins already won the Summer League MVP while Wall was being benched and it takes longer for big men to develop then guards. By merit, it should have gone to Cousins, regardless of media bias.
I'm not saying Cousins will be better than Dwight but he definetly has a chance to be. He already has the offensive game Dwight didn't have coming into the league he can shoot and has good handles and court vision for a big man. And he showed that he can hold he's own on defense in this video.
Cousins shot 43% from the floor this year...for a big man, that's just awful. The lowest Dwight's ever shot from the floor was 52%, and that was in his rookie year. Cousins is definitely talented, but to say an offensive game Dwight didn't have is silly.
@IOYB Yeah but what does he's shooting percentage have to do with his offensive skill set. Cousins has good handles for a center and range out to nearly 20 feet. When have you ever seen Dwight even attempt a shot from out there other than pregame warm-ups. And be serious bro Dwight just recently developed a true offensive game and post game and that 52% shooting were mainly from putbacks, pick and rolls, and ally-oops its not like he created most of his own shoots.
Let me ask you something, if I told you I could score 20 pts on 60% shooting, and my friend said he could score 12 on 40% shooting, who would you take for a pickup game? Who cares what the means of scoring are when you're doing it so efficiently? Dunks/Layups are the most efficient shots in basketball. If a player could dunk or lay it up on every possession, he'd be the greatest of all time, no questions asked. Is Vlade Divac better than Shaq because he has more range & handles?
@IOYB Bro what are you talking about I never said Cousins was better than Dwight I said he has the potential to be better. Of course dunks and lay ups are the most efficient shots in basketball but thats not the point I'm making I'm talking true offensive skill set as in post game, handles, range, etc... Dwight had none of that coming in and I even said myself that if Cousins becomes "consistant" that he can be just as good as Dwight. He was a rookie last year he has time to work on efficiency.
@IOYB I agree he does have a head-case problem but like I said he's young and very talented and sometimes that's expected out of players like him. I think as he gets older he will mature though if not they need to find a coach to help him with that issue.
Honestly, I hope he DOES become great The game needs more big men right now. It's way too perimeter-oriented, and it's ruining that "toughness" factor of the game.
@IOYB I agree but I think the big man will make a return but it will take some time. We already have Dwight and guys like Blake Griffin and DeMarcus Cousins will only get better. We haven't seen much of Derrick Favors or Greg Monroe but they could possibly be good later on and who knows how good Kanter and Valancius could turn out. And watch out for Andre Drummond the kid from UConn he could possibly be nice in the pro's aswell.
Monroe and Favors are good projects, same goes for Kanter and Valancius. The worst thing to happen to a potential big men resurgence was an influx of injuries. Yao, Oden and Bynum, arguably the 2nd/3rd/4th best centers behind Dwight with terrible injury luck. It's frustrating because watching two big men battle it out is, to me, 10x more exciting than watching two perimeter guys dribble iso against each other.
Is it cousin's Defense or Howard's terrible offensive game?

That last play wasn't defense on Howard. Cousins was lucky someone came to help him. Howard catching the ball under the basket = dunk

Cousins already has a very good offensive skill set he just needs to become consistant and maybe he can be just as good as Dwight.
