In case everybody has forgotten, DeMarcus Cousins, when healthy, is one of the best centers in the league. But what most people don't recognize is the Golden State Warriors center's ability to pass the ball.

Just take a look at this fancy dish he served Kevin Durant.

DeMarcus Cousins made his debut with the Warriors last week and although he's still trying to get his rhythm back, he has been impressive in four games with the Dubs so far.

With Cousins playing for the Warriors, they became heavier favorites to win it all this season. They are currently on an eight-game winning streak and have regained the top spot in the Western Conference standings. Having the former All-Star back from injury only boost the team's chances of 3-peating this year.

However, they are facing a Celtics team that is starting to find its groove. After an inconsistent start to the season, Boston has been doing great so far. They have won five straight and are currently the fifth best team in the Eastern Conference.

In a matchup that fans could potentially see come June, both teams are trying to make a statement at the expense of the other, that is why we're in a tightly contested game, as of this writing.
