DeMarcus Cousins has never hidden his emotions or minced words. Why change now?

When asked about Sacramento Kings point guard Ty Lawson, the star big man offered a blunt assessment of his new teammate's speed.

After an expletive-ridden take, Boogie quickly remembered he was speaking to reporters, apologized and corrected his statement, saying, "He is extremely quick."

The 26-year-old center has witnessed plenty of personnel turnover during his six losing seasons in Sacramento. He sounds genuinely excited to share the court with Lawson.
