Yeah, Evans said that him and Thornton got together and basically said they have to work harder, because it's not a good offense, but when they do it right it works. Something along those lines. It's funny that Evans can pretty much get away with whatever he says in the media...
Yeha, well Westphal ain't that dumb. He knows he can't take on the whole team, and Tyreke has been...less confrontational about it, because that's nto his personality.
As for Cousins, now sure why people are having sucha hard time reaading the tea leaves. Its seems fairly clear that:
1) Cousins and Westphal have clashed
2) that Cousins is immature
3) that Westphal singled him out for his play (unwise)
4) that Cousins responded with an agnry outburst along the lines of "if you think I'm such a cancer then trade me!". Which is very angry teenager of him. Normally that is followed by something like "I hate you! I hate you!" by his emotional peers.
5) that Westphal then did something a littel slimy parent teaching the kid a lesson and intentionally distorted things, using Demarcus's words against him even though he knew it wasn't the intent.
6) the Westphal quote "well DeMarcus says he wants to be traded" was just classic fed up parent calling the kid's bluff stuff
7) the team let the statement put out come out under Westphal's name, not their own, so they could have the flexibility of disclaiming it to DeMarcus
8) Westphal's further statements about beig fed up support all fo the above, and might even be him preparing a way for him to resign/storm off shaking his head in disgust etc. rather than being fired
