Hope Cousins plays; be nice to see him get a second 50-point game, preferably in a win this time. Tonight would probably be his best shot, from the games remaining on the schedule.

See, this is where a veteran's experience really shows itself in the NBA.

Look at that piker McLemore, who thinks that one little fingertip warrants over 3 weeks out of the lineup.

Compare to the experienced Rondo, who lists no less than 4 ailments, and that doesn't even include the slice on his right knee that keeps opening up on collisions.

Ben had the second longest steak without missing a game in the entire league until he started sitting out midway through this season, and I still think it has more to do with George Karl remaining as coach than an inability to play. I think his agent talked to Vlade and both agreed that playing limited minutes for Karl was only hurting his value.

Ben also asked for a trade that never happened if I recall correctly.

Why would he risk injury for a team that doesn't want him? IT's time here ended the same way.

Ben likely has played his last minutes as a King.
