Unfreakinbelieveable!!! Thank you Washington and Golden State!!!! I would have never thought we'd have sole possession of the 3rd spot. I just hope the ping pong balls fall our way. I love Webber to death but please don't send him out to represent us again 
If for some reason we do get the #1 pick I vote for John Wall. Tyreke and Wall would make one hell of a duo. If for some reason we stay at the 3 spot we take Cousins no doubt if he is still available.

You're absolutely right. I never thought of it that way and I honestly do believe if the draft were redone Evans and Griffin would go 1-2 either way. it was a real blessing to get Tyreke at #4. So I retract my last comment.....someone get Webber on the phone and ask him to work his magic one more time!!!!!

They are all interesting. I'd be happy with 1 or 2 because I think Wall and Turner have the biggest chance of being stars in the NBA.
It's not so simple to just slide reke over to the 2 spot. I think turner an Evans can work fine side by side. Wall not so much. I wouldn't be upset if they tried to make it work though. Cousins can man the middle for us. And I can envision favors taking alley oops from Evans all day long. Don't know much about his outside game though.

For those who didn't get to watch the GS game - it was really funny.
Devean George fouled out, and Nellie wanted him to stay in, telling the refs that he didn't have any other guys who could play cos they were injured. But since they were in uniform (you need to dress a certain number of players) the refs said that they had to at least see the floor. So he put Chris Hunter in (who was visibly limping), then Hunter fouled. He put Turiaf in, immediately fouled. He put Anthony Morrow in, immediately fouled. Then he got to put George back in.
He then proceeded to clear his entire bench, sending them to the locker room so as to avoid any further problems. The bench was literally empty
It was really quite LOL

Do you think Cousins is a better prospect than Greg Ogden (pre-injury)? Not saying if he is or isn't, but think it is a reasonable comparison to make because very similar type players. Ogden way more explosive, and his rookie year pre-injury he struggled to find his way. Couldn't score, always in foul trouble.
mac that sounds like one of the most bizarre things that can ever happen in an NBA game. Wish I could have watched those final minutes
I agree, the only edge I can give Cousins is probably better hands, and longer wing span. But nowhere near the athlete. I make the comparison because Kings fans thinking Cousins can be drafted and immediately be an impact player may be unrealistic.
I don't have a strong opinion on Cousins yet, looking forward to individual workouts, though I do have strong inclination he is not a Geoff Petrie player, while Derrick Favors is.

dude, you throw them out of position where we don't have an advantage-
cousins isn't that mobile so putting him at PF is a disservice of his talent.
if you want to get crazy, why not put evans at center and brockman at PG
Interesting question. Theyre both completely different types of players. Oden was alot more raw. Cousins's post game is ALOT more polished than Oden's was at the same point in his career. However, Oden was a physical specimen. You wont see too many guys in your life that are over 7 feet tall that can jump as high and move as quickly as Oden could. I think that was the main thing that made Oden so interesting and probably the main reason hes so injury plagued. Cousins's size, hands, and footwork are his bread and butter. Hes a huge guy that is alot more athletic than someone his size should be. Cousins can grab anything near him. He screams 25/11 to me. To answer the question i think Oden was a better prospect than Cousins is.
