BREAKING NEWS: DeMarcus Cousins does something controversial. // UPDATE
LEXINGTON, Ky., June 19 — University of Kentucky basketball player DeMarcus Cousins, a prospect in next week's NBA draft, was seen doing something controversial at a controversial location. When asked about his controversial actions, the controversial center offered an unprintable, controversial reply. Kentucky head coach John Calipari and Cousins's agent John Greig, both controversial figures in the sports world, also said controversial things in response to press inquiries. This unfolding controversy, according to analysts, is likely to affect Cousins's status as a projected top-six selection in the NBA draft.
In related news, medical researchers at Wayne State University in Detroit have discovered that choosing controversial athletes in one of the first six NBA draft slots is strongly correlated with adverse health outcomes and reduced employment prospects among NBA general managers. The study also found that these risk factors could be mitigated by selecting non-controversial athletes who did not attend the University of Kentucky, or by trading down to the seventh position in the draft. // UPDATE: audio report

If I was a team with a Top 6 pick, I'd be very wary of drafting such a controversial player.

We need to get you a job
with the TWolves, Kings, and Warriors.
Lies
DeMarcus Cousins is a center. He clearly pointed this out in his controversial statement, stating only an nba center sized man could have pulled off what he did.
PF, C, F/C —
— yet another DeMarcus Cousins controversy. Can he be trusted to play a single position, or will his controversial attitude frustrate NBA coaches? Teams holding top-six picks cannot afford to take such a risk.
I concur
We have enough controversial calls in the NBA Finals, adding yet another controversy would be just a catastrophe for the league. I am not sure pure David’s little heart can handle this news

JC, the report couldn’t be more clear. DeMarcus Cousins did something CONTROVERSIAL at a CONTROVERSIAL location, and as a result of this CONTROVERSY, it would be too CONTROVERSIAL for a team to select him higher than #7 overall.
I could not agree more
If he has done something controversial that caused a draft controversy which would lead to conspiracy theories, then this conspicuous big man will have no choice but to face the penal system.

Sounds like a top 6 pick...
Unlike more controversal players looking to be drafted in the top 7…
Jonas Jerebko once killed a charging female rhinoceros in heat protecting its young with nothing more than a hook shot.
It was about this post
She kinda chilled out after a few words from MP but it was too late for me. I was drunk. You can check it out yourself . It’s not really a big deal and they erased what I said anyway. LOL . It’s funny because that’s the first thing I’ve ever posted on that site and I got Banned. I’m glad people on this site aren’t so damn stuck up.
Practice safe sex. Go fuck yourself !
They can’t handle the CONTROVERSIAL truth!

I’d just like to say we have no problem with controversy and controversial athletes. In fact, Cousins would be a perfect fit for our controversial stable with the most controversial coach in the business.

No, serious.
He and Monta Ellis can take controversial moped rides together and he and Anthony Randolph can controversially argue with our controversial coach Don Nelson.
Can he and biedrins shoot controversial free throws together?
by Roll The Dyess on Jun 21, 2010 7:01 PM EDT up reply actions
Quite possibly.
He and Maggette can also controversially hog the ball.

you make a strong arguement
but can your players controversially yell “Dat BALL DON’T LIE!” in the middle of a controversial game 5 of the controversial 2007 eastern conference finals in which Antonio McDyess was controversially thrown out of game 6? I think not.

We can't
because we’re too controversial to make a controversial Conference Finals series.

The best part is
there would be more controversy over at Canis Hoopus if we don’t take the Controversial Cousins… a terrible band name by the way.
Dear lord I hope we take him…
Buckeyes are red, Wildcats are blue,
I wanted Evan Turner, But DeMarcus Cousins will do.
Rumor has it, Cousins just sent out a statement saying he refuses to play for any team but Detroit.
/Rubio’d BITCH!

This might be the ultimate time to really stir up some controversy and give Sacremento hell for taking him
