OT - Boogie Cousins

44 points
24 rebounds
10 assists

tonight in a double OT New Orleans win over the Bulls. First time since 1968 (Wilt Chamberlain) a player had a 40/20/10 stat line.

Boogie has his issues, but he is a beast. Physical freak.

Talent has never been the issue with him.

You should call him and tell him congratulations!

The things he can do at 7' are just as impressive as the things LeBron can do at 6'8". That combination of size and coordination is the definition of freakish.

The main problem he has right now is besides him and Davis, that roster is complete doodoo. Cousins and Davis went off last night and they had to go into 2 OTs to beat this trash version of the bulls.

I watched the Pelicans against the Grizzlies opening night....They have no guards or NBA quality depth.

You came to this conclusion after watching 1 game on opening night? Nice sample size. Holiday is having a great year, and as a team they’re currently 9th in 3pt shooting.

Sure a one game sample size isn’t great, but he isn’t wrong about the depth. The Pelicans have a depth problem. With those 2 players they should be way better. Cousins and Davis are both amazing. Holiday is good. Moore, Miller and Rondo are rotation players. The rest are just not good. They are on the roster to keep them from going into luxury tax.

No doubt they need a little more depth. Sol Hill also hasn’t played a single game this year, but is about to come back. They’re also strapped with Ajinca and Asik’s horrible contracts, that they can hopefully get out of next year. When you have 3 max players though, the rest of the roster is going to be rotation players. Moore and Miller have been surprisingly really good this year.
