You wanna talk about a headcase.. Cousins has nothing on this psychopath. Not to mention he's a punk. I'll pass.

Look for Cleveland, Houston or OK City to be interested... probably Toronto also..

Last thing we need around our young players and all the rookies coming in next year.

Character matters.  Especially on a young team like ours.

We could have had Cousins at an incredible value, but reportedly chose not to because of character concerns. Why on earth would we choose to add a marginal NBA talent (at this point of his career) with issues that extend far beyond the quality of his character? Heck, at least Delonte West was a likable guy.

Off the top of my head, I can't really think of a current NBA player I would want less than Matt Barnes. The thought of his presence in our locker room is frightening!

No.  Celtic's do not need his issues.

Every player on our roster is more valuable than Barnes.

Good for Sac - they certainly should have received more back in the Cousins deal, but they have at least now chosen a direction and don't have to deal with super-drama anymore.
