Demarcus Cousins is known for many things, but lockdown defense is not one of them. Visibly stiff when we first saw his rehab videos, Cousins has silenced a lot of doubters - but mostly via his work on the offensive side of the floor. There’s going to be a lot of coverage of that side Cousins’ game, and deservedly so. He’s going to be a (much) more dynamic version of that old man killing people at local gyms all over the country playing that “top of the key to the top of the key” game. Trailing threes will just be the start of it, and it’s going to be nice.
Stoic Ron Adams gives effusive praise for Demarcus Cousins: “I’ve been pleased with his defense”
