I really can't believe some people. There is absolutely no evidence from real source supporting any of these. Anybody and their mothers can sign up a twitter account and start typing. Woj is part of the media machine, the talking heads need to start talking points regularly. It's what pays them.

If you want to punch at me, fine. It's an emotional time. But my question is, if/when it's true, do you take it back? Not that it matters.

Go Kings.

You said yourself it was a gut reaction. People are taking this as a statement of fact. Cousins is 70% gone, write the checks, put it in the books. I don't fault you for having an opinion and sharing it. What I want to know is... do you say Cousins is as good as gone because there's a real rift between Cousins and Karl that's unfixable and the front office is more likely to side with George Karl and his wishes or do you say that because this news article is poised to kick off a firestorm of back and forth denials which is only going to get worse and ultimately Cousins is going to say "F it, get me out of this mess"? I have no doubt that Cousins' patience is wearing thin with the franchise. He's been put through a lot. But do you actually have concrete proof that Vlade and Vivek want Cousins out? Because until I hear otherwise, I'm tempted to take them at their word that they have no intention of trading him under any circumstance.

I believe we are screwed with Dmc and it's a matter of when he goes not if. That sucks but makes some sense

But we were offered the 2 pick for DMC and managements response was screw that prospect, find us some vets, we want to win 50 games next year. It wasn't more picks or prospects? What???? This is the dumbest and most screwed up NBA team I've seen in a very long time.

was that from Ty Lawson?

That would be interesting. And vague. His old coach as one possible snake, but everybody has perceived them as wanting to get back together. PDA as the other possible snake, who is only in his own front office now, and was there years previously too.

Fire Karl bring in Thibs trade for Bledsoe and taj Gibson. Get back to defense what Malone had us winning with and with a coach whose an expert at it and has boogie/gays trust

There’s a lot of confirmation I need to still do, but I feel comfortable saying that the Kings are paying the piper for past transgressions.

And there is a clearly coordinated attempt to try and accelerate any frustration that DeMarcus Cousins might have with the Kings.

This is exactly it. This is exactly what's going on. People outside of the organization who are familiar with the internal dynamics are intentionally creating the impression of internal discord. "Vivek made me fire Coach Malone. I personally loved the guy" -- that was step one of the media campaign and you'd have to be born yesterday to believe that one. None of us did, but national media ran with it. I don't think Cousins bought that one, but you say the same lie often enough... It's a decent plan I suppose if it weren't childishly orchestrated for no other reason than the spiteful destruction of a franchise. This is Maloof level stuff everybody. Just keep your eyes open, that's all I'm saying.

It was a tweet from 2013. Missed the date the first time.

The more tweets the more I pity Cousins. He's already got a rep coming into the league and then he ended up in this franchise when it has already turned into a joke and passed to another joke. After finally getting an all-star and team USA gold, he's treated just like this.

Man if DMC was wearing a Spurs uniform, he could have already been the face of their franchise now.

If I were the owner it would already be done. I'd eat Karl's contract and have Thibs in here tommorow to recreate Team USA.

I'm not the owner, and we just dished out big longterm money to Karl. I would respect the hell out of Vivek if he actually pulled the fire Karl maneuver, but it would be financially painful. Guess Malone getting picked up by Denver might help on that front -- Smart's deal is done, Corbin's should have run out at the end of the year, and Malone's got cancelled with his new hire.

Well if this is true then I was thinking the same thing. I like Karl but he doesn't run the team. G'bye. If it is true.
