"(The players) watched the Michigan State game. They went from, ‘We're all right' to, ‘Oh my gosh.' They understand that you're talking about a juggernaut."
John Calipari, showing a greater knowledge of how not to rile up your opponent than Demarcus Cousins. Cousins also walked back his quote, saying, "After I saw them play against Michigan State, I've got a new respect for them. They're pretty good. They've got good post players, and they're fast."
What do you think the odds are that Cousins ended up having a discussion with Calipari about doing on-the-spot scouting evaluations of the defending national champion?
