BOOGIE!! I wish he never tore his Achilles when he played in New Orleans, he was a monster and probably would still dominate in todays game 😤

[@marcusflores6717]

He was the best big in the nba at that time

[@DarynSmith955]

I always respect boogie he really good at what he does if he didn't got hurt with the warriors he would had won his ring and I like his game cause he could do alot skills center shot pass ball handle I wish he wss on the warriors back in 2017 but I always respect him

[@bluebenjamin874]

Biggest facts

[@Sticktothemodels]

I saw Boogie drop 36-13-6 in a little more than 3 quarters in staples against the clippers when he was in Sac. Incredible player. Top 5 Center of the 2000’s talent/skill wise no doubt

[@turnerherb]

Glad someone acknowledged it, Rondo one game had like 20+ assists in NO. If they didn't hurt late in that season they definitely would've caused trouble in the playoffs. Rondo is also another underappreciated guard in the league.

[@Ryan-mx3rx]

Man, I could listen to D-Miles talk all day long. Love his voice and the way his words flow. Plus, there's a real sincerity in his questions and points. You were built for B-ball and this podcast D-Miles!! Keep up the fantastic work!!!

[@BigShotKev]

Pause

[@kayne_o]

Thanks for letting D Miles lead a good portion of this interview. Great interview!

[@will_he_umm]

Got me in tears immediately haha D Miles Mobile story plus Reggie Evans talk. Best Hoops podcast, keep up the great work! Also if Boogie gets drafted to a competent franchise people would be talking about him differently. Guy had it all but was stuck on the Kings.

[@ducknuts6146]

boogie was a G in sac. always nice to the fans watched him take 20 pictures no problem at dinner once

[@Chiko-ls4lz]

My bro just won the MVP in Taiwan with boogie on the team. Crazy! Boogie won the finals mvp

Mine did too 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Just clowning around! Congratulations to your bro! 💪🏽

[@bprice2784]

This was a very authentic interview. I truly appreciated the story of DeMarcus Cousins.

[@Mbucktheape]

The Kings in 2k16 were an unstoppable force w rondo, boogie, ben maclemore, rudy gay, omri casspi, belli, seth curry, dareen collison god damn

If they were so unstoppable, why didn't they win a championship?

[@alanfortune3092]

Guys... The DeMarcus Cousins interview is one of the best interviews I've had the pleasure of listening to! Boogie is honest, authentic and open. His vulnerability shows and it was refreshing to view. I have a whole new perspective of him. Always loved him as a Basketball Player, now love him as a person. I especially liked Darius Miles referencing how difficult it is just to play and putting pundits like Stephen A Smith in his place. I'm now waiting to hear if Stephen A will respond? He generally reacts to everything he hears. Respond to that SAS! Darius and Boogie both explained it perfectly about injuries! Really good interview guys! Can't say enough about this interview! Props!

[@hatethegamejackson1923]

Boogie n AD with 5 healthy seasons together would’ve been 4th best 4/5 combo ever behind : David/duncan mccale/parish Hakeem/Ralph

[@Atlas365247]

Boogie is more of the alpha. AD has the KD prob he wants to be alpha, has the talent, but don't have the mindset. But neither do furreal. But great combo. That combo couldve stopped the Warriors dynasty

[@BlvdRo91]

They would've definitely been second behind Robinson and Duncan. AD and Boogie better than Ralph and Parish

[@dontefair6739]

This the 2nd time D Miles openly said he been down to the 251 so I know they treated him good 😂😂😂 this dude done been everywhere and he remember Mobile 😂

[@irvingresendiz1427]

Big ups to boogie. He a real one

[@testostyrone33]

Boogie was mfkn NICE... I have a feeling he still is. This dude should still be in the GOTDAMN LEAGUE man!💪🏾

[@Turk_2023]

yea it's bullshit, when he was in Denver and Milwaukee he made them better

[@eboooo]

Him Dwight so many guys get black balled when they get older it's weird

[@aidanwm7498]

His injuries robbed him of his prime but you have to think even him 80 percent of that is still a pretty good player and knows what it takes to maximize your potential he could help some young guys just being a og they can respect for doing it at the highest of levels in his prime he played with ad and honestly was better than ad at that time which goes to show you how special he was go back and look !

[@elismith335]

I wanna see Cousins go back to the Lakers. THEY need a big. Him and AD had something special. And I wanted to see him team up on okc. Him and Chet omfg crazy!!!

[@Turk_2023]

@@eboooo I think it's because the veterans minimum is so much now.... It's cheaper to get young guys to develop and spend your cap on stars. It makes the league worse because the more ex stars that are in it gives the people who watch names they know and love.

[@blackbeanburger3357]

thats crazy he went from not even playing to

[@jaybarz003]

I loved & is still love Boogie.I knew him wen he got traded to Pelicans prob 2014-2015.He is arguably one o the best big man,rebounders & rim protectors of e 2010s.He was also dope at shotmaking,playmaking,passing,cutting & mid-range jumpers.Thank u 4 everything big Boogie!🏀👏👏

[@KuntrymanK]

Boogie is on of my Favorite Players all time! He is now one of my favorite ppl God bless you and your family- Q & D Miles keep em coming!

[@conorwatchvidz]

That starting 5 of former teammates Boogie picked is prob the best lineup of any guest yall have had on here. Steph-PG-KD-AD-Boogie is an unstoppable lineup

[@travg912]

By far the best 5 man lineup so far. he could also do a 2nd lineup with joker, giannis, kawhi,harden, rondo and it would still be ELITE! S/O to Boogie if you see this, thank you for your contributions to the game of basketball. You’re a fasho DAWG and an even better person! Stay solid famlee

[@selfmade_ju13]

This is motivation 🙏🏾 appreciate this content . Keep pushing through the hard times

One of the best ever saw him play senior year at AL Mcguire. Never seen a 7 foot do eveything like a gaurd and still dominate bigs as senior in high school looking like USA KG

[@MASKEDMAN712]

Big Cuz on the Kings was a FORCE. He dominated that center position 2013-2016. Sacramento would’ve been a solid team if they had more stability.

Yo Sacramento Kings! Sign BOOGIE COUSINS! We need a solid big man behind Sabonis!!

He is such a fun player to watch and i'm still holding onto hope that he lands on a team before free agency is over 🙏 "This is getting ridiculous!" lol

[@Divisiononebasketball]

Miles is really good on these podcasts. Boogie was so effective as a player, but once he got hurt it was easy for teams to dismiss him because he was so volatile on the court. He was Draymond before Draymond was.

[@jiquezgreen]

[@knawatimsayn6186]

Perfect show to be on Cousins was a KNUCKLEHEAD!!! Kings had issues but Cousins was the main issue it was always about HIM, worst attitude ever, all the injuries happened to him for a reason

[@vittiriowashington5211]

Good or bad attitude, injuries are inevitable especially for an agile big like Boogie, he was he was healthy for the majority of like the the first 7 years of his career.

[@gonzo4of9]

✌🏿🖐🏿☝🏿 3rd Coast! Mob-Town

[@MrBuddahB]

Philly did have 2nd pick they got Evan Turner..

[@chikowashere]

This was how I knew that Boog was blackballed out of the league. In the Finals the Warriors subbed him in, he was out hurt for majority of the season, and as soon as he got in he got a quick tech and they were reviewing a potential second one. Even though he didn't do anything wrong yet. The refs decided that he wasn't going to be a part of the game. So I knew the league was done with him. There's no reason that Boog, Melo, IT, and others aren't on a teams bench right now. At the very least the bench.

[@jcotrone]

It took a while for Boogie to mature, but he has! The Kings timing and culture were just wrong.

[@Det1911]

Strong ass Reggie 😂😂😂😂

[@jaybarz003]

Injuries fucked Boogie up after he left Pelicans.He was out for 1 year & so.Then he got injured again when he got traded to Warriors.The year after,he got traded to Bucks.His ankle injuries harmed his career.If he didn't get too much injuries,Boogie could still play in e Nba.😒
