Sure bro. Can you explain why GS doesn’t want him then?
Are people really saying Boogie was not mobile? He was once the best big man in the game. Maybe 2 years ago. It takes really 2 years to have full confidence in a Achilles tear. 1 to play and one to feel confident. Boogie in the right situation,(Stable, veteran ball club with friends keeling him focused) he would do very well. Boogie wants to win. He wasted away in Sacramento but he never asked to be traded. He just wanted to compete, get to the playoffs and win. Isnt that what we ask of Athletes?

I'm not reading through all this ...because I'm sure it's full of a bunch of ing greys jerking off to the player they think Cousins could be on the Spurs.
The Spurs don't need Cousins for any reason. In today's NBA, he's a minute eating bench big who's skill set is antiquated. There are no minutes for him and there is no role for him...even if he is done being a cancer.
Move on.
Even with prime Parker and Manu, the Spurs wouldn’t have won without the most dominant big in the game. No worries, they have fade a way LMA, Poeltl and Eubanks. With all the developing young talent, none of them are legit bigs. Maybe they can grab Anthony Davis.
They don't need Forbes, Bertans, Mills, Poeltl or Eubanks either yet, here they are.
If you get Cousins for the min, you just get him. It also opens up dealing Poeltl, who is scheduled for a RFA next season. Heck, you could really open up trading for Beal or something.
How the are we gonna get beal
I read this and have to laugh. Why watch basketball if you're gonna be this wrong?
surprise knicks hasnt sign him yet, they the only team that will sign scrubs to big deals
As long as he fits with Patty.
If we can get him for cheap, then yes. Lol at people who don’t want him
Warriors don't want him because they're capped out and can't pay him. If he's going to take the minimum then he had his pick of teams and maybe he doesn't want to warriors who are in an akward rebuilding and lost their best player. They are obviously running a guard heavy scheme next year. Might as well go all in with the cast off rejects.
Everytime you open your mouth, I let out a screech. Acting like any of those players I mentioned couldn't be replaced at the drop of a hat Or are you laughing at the "here they are" part? If that's the case, you should be laughing in the direction of the front office. I don't know what this forum's infatuation with flat out scrubs is, but it needs to stop.
Those players all have value. The Spurs have them for a reason. Cousins can't do the single thing the Spurs need a center to do -- play defense -- and he's a ty person, too.
Tbh Cousins has more fight than Aldridge. I would run my offense through him and let him prove himself. He is auditioning for a bigger paycheck and need a great system to highlight his skills. That is the reason why he’s not signing with Knicks. Dubs cannot afford him and I think he’s lost confidence with their medical rushing him, Klay and KD.
Cousins is a low risk, huge upside sign and propels Spurs to 2nd seed above Nuggets, and would beat depleted Lakers in a 7 game series.
If we lose out on boogie which i imagine is pretty likely. Do we keep Metu or waive him for Thomas Robinson or somebody else?
Watch the vegas league
Defense? Cousins is a career 10.9 TRB, 1.4 STL, 1.2 BLK. 27Olb 6-11 with 7’6” wingspan. He would be our best defense against Jokic or other big men. PNR defense? Spurs have very good team defense, and should be better with Murray, Carroll, improved White. We would have great help defense on pnr in case a VanFleet blew by him. This defensive liability is a hogwash.
If you have a choice between Metu, Stanley Johnson and Cousins for the minimum? You take Cousins and cut him if he doesn’t work out. Similar to the rockets and melo. 90% of ST hated Keldon pick 2 weeks ago now like half are on his after one game. If they do meet with him let PATFO decide.
Pop has made a LMA/DMDR/Gay trio productive. I know most folks are pessimistic about how far that trio can take the Spurs, but they've already gone way farther than folks would have thought. Cousins in SA can work, if both sides want it to. It's honestly ridiculous that people are ignoring the tremendous talent infusion he'd add. Let Pop work on the fit. That's what he gets made so much for. If he doesn't see a way to do that, this won't happen anyway. Worst-case scenario, the Spurs cut him early in the season and eat $3Mish. Best-case scenario, he buys in and becomes the ceiling-raiser the team needs now and finds a way to stick around like a younger and better Gay and grows into foundational big the Murray/Walker/Samanic core needs.
We're talking about a min or min-esque deal here, not the four-year MLE. There's almost zero opportunity cost.
