Boogie doesn’t have to play any of the 82 regular season games.
All we need him for is 16 playoff games.
Lakers, and everybody else for that matter, season is over before it even got started

at this point why would you even believe what these reporters say?
if you think the lakers or celtics didnt try to get cousins i dont know what to tell you.
remember how these dumb *** reporters were reporting in the last day that philly was still trying to get lebron and trade for leonard? when in fact lebron met with the sixers the night before to tell them he wasnt going there.
had the sixer niketalkers thinking they were bout to get lebron
these reporters talk when they dont always know whats going on
woj is starting to sound like a ****ing clown. at first he would just report news now hes adding a narrative to signings.
he need to add a paper bag over his head when hes on tv

All this....
But the CP3/Laker trade got vetoed.

No surprise. An all star taking this big of a paycut is terrible for the players union too

Yo...are we expecting some sort of drop off from Harden / Paul / Capela or something? Idk if dudes are playing or not, but do *****s think ariza was THAT important to the rockets to the point where they're done without him? He missed 15 games last year. He literally was 0-200 in Game 7.
Harden/Paul/Capela at one point last year were 42-1 against the field.
42 W's, 1's. Multiple W's vs the Warriors. They fried the entire league and pushed the champs to 7 games and were up 3-2 on them and somehow now they're done because of Ariza. LMAO
Ariza was great for the locker room, still a solid player and will still have my support, but eventually you were gonna have to move on from him due to his noticeable decline. There was no way the Rockets were giving him a big deal, especially 15 mil like that. I’m glad he’s getting that from somewhere else, even if it is the Suns. But let other people tell it, they lost both Paul and Harden. They just need to lock up Capela, bring Luc back (who was actually their best defender til his shoulder injury), find a way to move Ryno/Nene and bring in another consistent contributor. They can play Ryno and Nene during the regular season, but at one time or another will be useless during the playoffs, so you may as well get rid of them and get the ball rolling on other guys.

I don’t see how people continue to jump of board with that
KD was a FREE AGENT. Cousins was a FREE AGENT. The Hornets were NBA OWNED, the Warriors are not. It’s simple.

Those players need to tell their teams to draft better and revamp their player development programs.
Since 2009, the Dubs have drafted 11 players, 7 of whom have played significant minutes for them, 1 is projected to get significant minutes from them this year, 1 was a piece in a trade that brought them Bogut, 1 was a Euro who stayed overseas for years came over then went back and they whiffed on another one.

We are saying the same thing. Cousins got more offers for more money for more years for sure.

Lol at draft better as if that's the solution.
Draft better.... really? Like NBA gms can determine if someone is gonna be a bust or not. Development I agree with though. The warriors are doing something right with all their young players.
