DeMarcus Cousins Used To Talk Shit To A Warriors Rookie By Calling Him A Virgin, Who Had No Idea What Virgin Meant

[The Athletic] – “This is like seven, eight months, living in America,” he says of his current linguistic facility.

He’s still learning new terms. “Virgin” was a word introduced to him by DeMarcus Cousins a few months ago. The lumbering veteran big man went down to Santa Cruz on a rehab assignment last season and relentlessly teased the eager kid in trash-talk sessions. Smailagić recounts Cousins repeatedly yelling, “Don’t play with us, you’re probably a virgin!” Smailagić would shoot back, “I’ll show you,” perhaps not completely understanding the context of the insult.

“It was great,” Smailagić said of his time trying to prove himself to Cousins.

I don’t know why but I’m laughing out loud. Mostly because I’m picturing scenes like this, I guess?

You get the point by now. Actually, I need one more example.

I can’t stop laughing at the insult though. Just randomly calling someone a virgin. It makes no sense but it’s hilarious. There’s nothing that suggests Alen is a virgin. There’s nothing that suggests Boogie has any idea that he may be a virgin. He’s just out here screaming virgin.

The quote in itself is laugh out loud hilarious. ‘Don’t play with us, you’re probably a virgin!’ So he can’t play because he might be a virgin? I mean I don’t make the rules and I would listen to any rule Cousins comes up with. But, it has a little Mean Girls here.

Virgin jokes – apparently still play in the NBA.
