I'm gonna disagree with all you guys. He hasn't earned it, he doesn't get it. He can play for it if he wants it. If I remember correctly, the Kings can give him the longest and largest contract anyways when the time comes. I hope he becomes a max player, but in three years he hasn't.
I guess what I'm saying is I won't blame the Kings for not signing him yet. If they do, GREAT it's not my money, but when I put myself in the shoes of the ones writing the checks I can see why they wouldn't and I wouldn't.

In case you have, here's a newsflash: none of these guys deserve that kind of money. There's, maybe, three guys in the entire league who "deserve" what they're getting paid. Cousins is going to get that money because he's a legit big with touch, range, handle, and a post game. "Deserve" has got **** all to do with it; he's going to get it, whether he's "earned" it, or not.
