I know!! he finally had a top level talent in Anthony Davis to play beside. They were both starting to gel, and they need each other to succeed on this team. Man, I'm a Laker fan and I just think of how Kobe never was the same on a consistent basis after the Achilles injury. Demarcus is younger so I hope that helps him come back to playing at the high level he's at

Although Achilles injuries are tough to recover from, Cousins should not be as affected as much as Kobe was.
Kobe relied on his explosiveness which is what players usually lack after this injury. Cousins can use his body and play below the rim since he doesn’t rely on his first step or quick-twitch movements.
True I didn't consider that. He might be a bit slower but hopefully he comes back the 100% in due time
