More on this storyline
“What was it like getting going to an organization like that and then having to navigate all of those things with the coaching changes, the front office? Then there was an ownership change while you were there.” DeMarcus Cousins: “It was tough and it was confusing, and um I was coming from a situation at Kentucky where, you know, Cal treated us like pros, but I remember in my rookie season it was a simple task and I remember (Francisco Garcia) saying something like, ‘Yo, you really were spoiled at Kentucky,’ like, and in my head, I’m like, ‘Damn, maybe I was.’ So long story short, Cisco ended up getting traded to the Houston Rockets, and I remember when he went there, he ended up tapping in with me like a little later, and he was like, ‘Man, I remember that day I called you spoiled.’ He was like, ‘I was wrong, like we were in a s**thole.’ Like, you know, I’m not here to, like, [trash] on the Kings or anything like that. That’s just, you know, in sports you have up and down years, you know, I just so happen to come in at a point where it was down here.” -via YouTube / August 26, 2024
Green admitted he disagreed with Cousins’ take then, but now, six years removed from the conversation, he sees DeMarcus’ point of view crystal clear. “There’s passion, and there’s attitude. They live in the same house, but the difference is how they’re characterized and categorized,” Green said. “I remember you said something to me in 2018, ‘Man, we’re the same. And they say you got passion, and they say I’m crazy and got an attitude,’ I was like, ‘Cous, you’re f****** crazy, we ain’t the same.’ And what you said was, ‘Nah, but ya’ll be winning. So, they say yours is passion. I haven’t won much, so they say mine is an attitude, and I can’t be coached, and I’m crazy, and this and that,’ and I say all of that to say, I’m sorry because you was right.” -via Clutch Points / August 21, 2024
DeMarcus Cousins: I’ve had the responsibility of carrying the team my entire life, and now you want me to turn it off and be happy about it? No, it ain’t that simple. -via YouTube / August 6, 2024
