    I’d rather have Boogie than DeAndre Jordan.

    It’s fascinating how many players have a baby come back monent when they realize the leagues doors are closing for good.

    Says he improved as a player but when you’re 33 and tore your achilles and your ACL that’s essentially a deathknell for one’s career. Attitude aside, when he plays it doesn’t look like he can move at all on the defensive end. For the 10 points he scores he gives up 15 on the other end

    This used to be Dwight every offseason

    “I just want a chance to prove myself.” – Man who has been on 4 teams since 2020

  7. The 2010 draft class is so sad and depressing

    One of the most talented centers in history

    There were rumors that the Nuggets let him go because of his attitude issues (various NBA podcasts). If that’s the case, who wants to put up with drama from a backup center when your starting center is going to play 40+ minutes in the playoffs? And young teams would rather develop their own picks. It would be hard to believe that anyone in their right mind thinks Deandre is better than him.

    I don’t like how he constantly has a pouty face like five seconds into being put in the game. He’s already pouting.

    Less than a year ago he wore on Denver so much that they went and signed the least effective backup center option in the league just as a breath of fresh air. Boogie seems to do these redemption tours every offseason and then goes and pisses everyone off again like clockwork.

  12. His attitude has always sucked, and it drags down the team.

    Why not show everyone by playing in D league?

    This is a strange Mea Culpa imo. I don’t think the phone’s quiet for Boogie this summer because of some immaturity or character flaws? He’s just had some bad injuries and gotten old.

    Little too late for that one bud

    Admitting mistakes without naming any is not taking ownership.

    This is what Deshaun Watson told all his masseuses

    Too much of a headache, he was a solid player who thought he was a top 5 player. Constant attitude,blaming teammates,refs,coaches etc. no sorry for the guy at all

    Dude’s a center who’s way past his prime. You gotta be an immaculate team player/locker room guy to secure a roster spot and that ain’t DeMarcus

    He should probably get that growth looked at by a doctor instead of NBA coaches.
