All GS will need out of Boogie come playoff time is about 13-15 minutes a game.


and won't get back on d twice, 2 easy buckets
will turn it over once, leading to a bucket
will miss a couple threes when steph is clapping for the ball wide open

will knock down a three
will get a and one

more importantly if a guy is playing 13 minuntes a game his impact is just not that big i don't care who it is. michael jordan could play 13 minutes a game and if he's not closing the game, his impact will be minimal on the outcome..games aint decided at the beginning of the 2nd quarter....

when he's healthy, will he be willing to take that role? will he buy into their system? shite, will he play defense like they demand? when boogie feels he's back, he's going to want to do boogie things


He has everything to lose. If he starts bitching out, GS won’t play him AND can afford to cut him. The Lakers did something similar with Isaiah Rider in 2001. Rider was a 20 ppg SG the Lakers picked up on a discount. When he started causing problems, Jackson moved to cut him. After that is when the Lakers went on that historic 39-2 run through the playoffs.

Boogie acts out and he’s done, especially coming off of an Achilles injury. It would cost him millions.

If he doesn’t buy in, they just sit him.

oh i agree, but i'm talking on the court. Boom is right that he doesn't fit in with GS. even a healthy Boogie doesn't fit

The fact that no one offered him makes him worth the risk.


oh 100%. there is no risk. even if they eat $5M entirely that's nothing for GS

i just don't think this is a huge addition on the court. it could be, but that's the longshot at this moment

a. it's already cost him about $150M

b. he may have no real future anyway b/c of the injury

c. Boogie is super emotional and not a rational actor (see: yesterday)
