Former Kentucky big man DeMarcus Cousins is hungry for a chance to play in the NBA Playoffs.
He’s going to get that opportunity soon with the Golden State Warriors, and Cousins is already starting to show playoff-level intensity.
Last night, Cousins had 28 points, 13 rebounds and 5 assists in a 116-102 win over Denver. When he headed to the bench in the fourth quarter, Cousins mocked Nuggets big man Nikola Jokic:
Boogie was looking for Nikola Jokic after giving him that work. This is what makes an engaged GSW so scary – they have a guy who's been waiting his whole career for playoff glory & is motivated to prove he's the best big man out there. Gives them that edge pic.twitter.com/4rv6xCVs4m

Beware. Boogie is ready for playoff basketball and that’s bad news for the rest of the league.
