Sheed didn't play like that in 1996.

Yes, he's stronger than Sheed, but he sure as shit ain't slow.

At the same age?
Cousins is considerably slower than Sheed.
DX says this about Cousins comparisons:
Although I did see a GSW message board that compared him to Dampier, at worst, lol.Best Case: Taller Al Jefferson
Worst Case: Derrick Coleman On His Worst Days

Ok, but like sheed he's both very quick and very fast for a thick 6-11 guy with a 7-3 wingspan. Sorry if Sheed was a trackstar. Cousins is fast for a 5, Sheed was fast.
He's smart when not acting like a jackass
He's skilled with great footwork
His hands are incredible for a guy that size
He can handle the ball a bit and can score in multiple ways wherever he catches it.
Sheed used to be known primarily as an incredibly gifted post scorer with a jumper to match. Cousins is the best post scorer in hoops, and has a little jumper.
Sorry if you can find a knock on the comparison, but it's a pretty good one.
Dime
We Ballin' (lol)Player Comparisons: Al Jefferson, Zach Randolph and Andray Blatche
And I see a lot of references to someone comparing him to Shaq and getting a lot of heat for it.NBA Comparison : Andray Blatche/Brendan Haywood (more skilled)

Watched Favors some this weekend too. I still like him, but he looks like more of a 4 (that would need a space eater along side him). Has enough size to play it, but probably not well suited there (like Amare). He has very good footwork and is pretty quick for his size.
Didn't see any of Cousins.
Saw Aldrigde against NIU. He was better than I thought defensively. Good awareness on shot blocks. He's very sound technically too. Not very agile though. He plays a lot like Kaman. Don't know if he'll be as good, but a similar style game.
Phil Wenneck: The man purse. You actually gonna wear that or are you just fuckin' with me?
Alan Garner: It's where I keep all my things. Get a lot of compliments on this. Plus it's not a purse, it's called a satchel. Indiana Jones wears one.
Mad about Cousins

Cousins is a post player though, so I doubt he becomes a lazy spot up shooter.
I agree though it seems like his character could be blown out of proportion. Just don't want another Darko (great measurables but a 10 cent head).
