Just four hours ago, everyone in NBA World was wondering where DeMarcus Cousins, then of the New Orleans Pelicans, would go. No one mentioned The Golden State Warriors. Execpt The Hampton Five, and that was privately among themselves. Everyone was talking about LeBron James to the LA Lakers. Lakers fans, real and bandwagon, were going nuts.
Then, three hours later, it happened: DeMarcus Cousins signed with the Warriors, and everyone just lost it. The man they call “Boogie”, one of the best centers in the NBA, did not go to the LA Lakers – he went update to Oakland. If there was anyone, any deal, that could piss off Warriors-haters, it was one of the following deals:
LeBron James to Golden State
Kwahi Leonard to Golden State
DeMarcus Cousins to Golden State
Anthony Davis to Golden State
And of them, LeBron went to LA, Kwahi Leonard’s still with the Spurs, Anthony Davis remains with the Pelicans.
DeMarcus Cousins to Golden State. Where Steph Curry welcomed him as the “third splash brother” joining Klay Thompson and himself:
The 3rd splash Brother ???????. Let’s go @boogiecousins

And here’s the bad news: Davis could join him. That’t the buzz.
So, right now, “Warriors” is a World wide Twitter trend, and fans are losing it..
