GSW signing Cousins may not be meaningful at all.
Just a note: the above is true about every single instance of player movement.
That's probably true but with the injury Cousins suffered and the way some people are talking his signing like it's destroyed the NBA, this particular instance is worthy of singling out and mentioning.
Isn't cousins at 50% still better than Zaza/McGhee? When you are already dominating the NBA even a small I
Provement in the margins is significant
Yeah, I agree that Cousins at 50% is still a better basketball player than Zaza/McGee.
But I would qualify that by asking what Cousins' effect is on his teammates. What if his attitude has a negative effect on his teammates' play making his addition, even though he's an upgrade a center, a net downgrade for the team?
Or maybe he never gets to 50%. I've heard quite a range of possibilities with this injury.
He could be a monster this year. Or he could, as mentioned before, not wind up being a meaningful addition.
