Coachie likes him.
To Kings assistant coach Pete Carril, Cousins is something he has never seen before.
“I’ve been in the pros 13 years now … he’s the first and perhaps authentic … only original, different type of player that I’ve seen,” Carril said before the broadcast of tonight’s game on NBA TV. “There’s certain things you can’t teach and he does all of them.”
