    Cousins sucks and the epitome of being a good stats, bad team guy.
    Game 2 kind of disagrees.

    BOOGIE! can be a dick but he hasn't done that with Golden State. He knows good behavior/rehabbed image is worth tens of millions of dollars going forward on a new contract - wherever that may be.

    Cousins also just played in his 3rd game in 6 weeks with an injury that I’m sure he’s not 100% recovered from

    The script says the Warriors win Game 4

    The script got burned as soon as Klay Thompson wrecked his hamstring.

    Meet the new boss Ladies and Gentleman. At least for a year anyway.

    Trading away a playoff choker for a ring? I’d say it was a good move.

    Yep. So are Lowry and Siakam. Ibaka was yuge as well. They could magically heal Klays hammy and bring KD back, but the Dubs still aren’t gettin 3 in a row.

    Nobody is signing him to a big contract.

    Dude is a 4 time all-star. He's averaged 20 and 10 for his career. He was averaging 16 and 8 coming off the Achilles injury. Boogie will get at least $8Million per.

    4 years x $8 Million = tens of millions.

    HTH

    No team will give him 4 years and he won’t want 4 years at that low of a number. That contract will never happen.

    Christ, mr. Literal - Boogie is gonna get paid.

    He's a 20 and 10 guy. He's 6'11", can shoot the three and board. He's gonna get paid tens of millions. Hell, he got paid $5.3 Million to essentially play 1/3 of the season for the Warriors.

    You guys make it sound like his only path back is through Europe or the G-League.

    Who gives a fuck about boogie. He'll go team up with Kyrie in Brooklyn and they'll first-round it up.

    All that matters is which franchise is claW going to go win another ring with. Very possible he goes to the clips and they get another piece and there's your new dynasty.

    He was a 20-10 guy. I just said that contract wasn’t going to happen. I think the most likely deal for him is some team with cap space that misses out on the top guys giving him around 15 million for one season.

    He tore his achilles. Most guys are never the same after that and teams know it. Long term money ain’t happening.

    He will get another one year deal probably for about the same amount.

    Orlando, Atlanta, Brooklyn, etc will give him a 2-3 year deal at the same rate Portland gave Hammer.

    Yes his injury is damning but risk/reward still isn't bad at that rate.

    Imagine caring whether a washed up center gets paid or not.

    Don't really care. Just saying he's going to make $10M+ if you go out and actually look at the contracts of comparable centers around the league.

    Durant should have been playing the whole time. He personifies the pussy NBA. His agents and managers have held him out to not risk his big upcoming contract. He’s not 100% but he’s fine. Nobody sits out a month for a calf.

    There’s no reward. He’s not a winning player and his ego is bigger than his production. The days of throwing out money are mostly over.
