Rockets talked to Boogie Cousins camp

I heard they used 2 bad words: vet min

 

This guy is this generation’s Derrick Coleman. Could have been an all time great but was just not there in the head.

 

Great comparison

 

FWIW, last time he was healthy in 2019, he put up 16/8/4 on 56 TS% for the Warriors. Not too shabby. Also shot the 3 pretty well when he was with the Pelicans and is still only 30.

Can't expect him to get back to his pre injury self but he has a chance to be a good player still.

 

I want to give Anthony Bennett a Chance.

Hopefully the Rockets give him a Chance., after coming back from surgery.

 

In ‘19 Boogie signed for the vet minimum with GS. If he signs the minimum with Houston he’s well worth the risk. Given all of his time off to get in shape and heal from his past injury, he could turn out to be a good addition. Tell you what, he won’t get shoved around in the paint by Anthony Davis or a guy like Harrell. And he sure as hell won’t let guys drive in for lips without a good body check. That was sorely missing last year against the Lakers as they drove in repeatedly for lips of our smaller players. Nope, Cousins can man the paint. And quite honestly, I love his competitive attitude on the court.

 

Isn't he a locker room chemistry destroyer? Not sure if we can afford much more of that right now.

 

Awesome

I would like to be a fly on the wall when all of these guys are hanging out together.

 

well George Karl hates him so the enemy of my enemy is my friend

 

Still if he stays healthy he can be a contributor on a championship team.

 

what does he have left in the tank? Those injuries have got to take a toll. I mean would I say no to signing him for the vet min? Nope but I wouldn’t expect him to contribute anything more than what Jeff Green gave us last year...and even that could be hard for Boogie to contribute.

 

No he is not. All that went away when he was with GSW.

 

If he stay healthy he will be a contributor. His game has never been based on being extremely gifted athletically. I do worry about his lateral movement skills. That used to be a real strength of his. At GSW he struggled handling guards on switches before he got hurt. Could've been his achillies was killlng him before he finally blew it out.

He's in the best shape of his life so I would sign him for the vet min. Small bet for a chance at a big return.

 

Mostly just want the guy to be ok, not setting himself up for more injuries... but yeah I'm okay with Cousins on a flyer.

 

He can play with Wood.

 

If healthy he is a big that shoots 3s.

bBut he is an injury waiting to happen.

DD

 

Please. Yes.

 

Got Cousions for 4th and 5th position, it will be great. The remaining weakest is in sf, see if we can get Ariza again or not, we can beat Lakers using this team.

 

If Harden couldn’t get along with Dwight, CP3, and Westbrook... oh I’m sure he’s gonna love Cousins.

 

F Who Harden can get along with. He’s had his way for years. Time for him to submit to Silas and Rafael with whatever vision they have. Harden doesn’t have championship acumen but Silas has been on some squads that do as a coach.
