DeMarcus Cousins Shares Comical Airport Photo Featuring Injured Warriors in Wheelchairs

The Golden State Warriors are the walking wounded, but there's something about this group that feels as locked-in as ever. With no Kevin Durant and a host of key contributors less than 100% including Klay Thompson, Kevon Looney, Andre Iguodala, and DeMarcus Cousins, the latter decided to make light of the situation following the resilient Dubs' Game 2 NBA Finals win on the road in Toronto.
Think Boogie's in good spirits? He'd have to be in light of what he was able to accomplish Sunday night. He logged 28 minutes -- a good way beyond what anyone would have expected -- and dropped 11 points, 10 rebounds, 6 assists, and a pair of blocks despite having only recently returned from a blown quad.
The wheelchair thing makes sense as a precaution, as silly as it is. Iguodala, whose bum hamstring belied his gutsy game-sealing 3-pointer with five seconds left, has surely earned the right to have a seat given his 35 years of age. All told, splitting the opening set in the Six has certainly earned Cousins and Golden State the right to crack a few jokes.
