I cant believe there are people that want to compare Blake Griffin and Deandre Jordan to Anthony Davis and Boogie. Though I agree with SAS, he lost me when he said CP3 would go to a similar situation with 2 great bigs. Davis is a top 3 player. Cousins is the best scoring center in NBA. Griffin and Jordan are none of these things.

That was a better segment than I had anticipated.

I'll admit I'm still kinda salty about him leaving, but I'm not sold on him being the missing piece. I'd be kinda pissed if we spent all that money on his old arse. Getting quality depth would make us a better team.

CP/AD/Boogie is a trio that attracts some of the best possible MLE/BAE/vet min type players.

They still wouldn't be on the level with the Warriors (unless one of their major players gets hurt in the playoffs or Solo becomes an efficient 15ppg guy), but it would be an awesome team and a blast to watch.

Yeah, I'd take it but I think they'd become another version of the Clippers. Trade 2018 pick and Diallo for Fournier to be new Redick. Each year trade all available future assets for failed veteran experiments at SF.

I disagree I think AD and DC are both better players then Blake and Deandre and if you added Fournier to that mix. I'm not say that would win a title but they would be the second best team in the west

They are better because Cuz > DJ but you still have a questionable supporting cast depending on who you have to dump to make room for CP3. I will say that Demps has a better track record than Doc at finding scrap heap guys to develop.

Yea your def right the depth would be awful because im assuming in order to get cp they would literally have trade everyone not named AD or DC

AD has a 28.5 PER in the postseason, and all 4 of those games were against an elite defensive team.

cousins, zero



Not really his fault that he never made it.

holiday, zero series wins



17.5 playoff PER.

quote:

25.8 PER in the playoffs. Was superb in his first playoff series against Dallas. Bill Simmons is a count, but he knows about basketball and said that CP3's 2011 series against the LAL provided a performance/video that every PG should strive for and should be shown to any young person looking to become a legit player at the collegiate level.

If you have 3 playoff players at a 28.5, 17.5, and 25.8 PER + a player at, say, a 20 PER (Boogie -2.4 his career average, being conservative on account of playoff jitters), then you're a contender.

CP3 makes the players around him so much better. It makes too much sense for him to come back to NOLA. Perfect fit.

One of the dumbest comments I have read. How many games have the 3 of them played together? Ridiculous.
