Hall of Famer: Warriors signing DeMarcus Cousins 'a little appalling to me'
No such thing as "a little appalling".

I’m sure other teams would’ve been willing to sign him for 1 year 5 million if they knew Boogie would take it. Or did Boogie go out and say who will take me for 5 million and no one offered but GS?
I just don’t think the Warriors should be getting lauded as smarter than everyone when I doubt Boogie signs that same contract for anyone else.
Well then it’s still not a case of “the warriors just being smarter than everyone else” that I keep hearing.Teams did pass on Boogie signing a similar deal. The Lakers were one of them.
The Warriors can afford the risk of signing him. If he doesn't work out or sits out the entire season, they're still heavy favorites to win the title.
Other teams can't take that gamble.

Plus I know Boogie is coming off the Achilles injury, but a 1 year 5 mil contract hardly seems like a big risk for a 27 and 12 player. Unless you absolutely hate his lockeroom presence, which could be the case.
I think you're being a little over-the-top.No such thing as "a little appalling".
Why not? They are smarter.I’m sure other teams would’ve been willing to sign him for 1 year 5 million if they knew Boogie would take it. Or did Boogie go out and say who will take me for 5 million and no one offered but GS?

Maybe in previous front office moves but not in this specific instance.Why not? They are smarter.
No one thought they could get him but they did. The other GMs out-smarted themselves. Knowing that there wasn't a huge market for an injured Center, they tried to slow roll him never imagining that the astute Warrior front office would swoop in and snap him up. That's why we hear all the sour grapes.Maybe in previous front office moves but not in this specific instance.

No. This is a thread on the absurdity of Irving's comment. Don't see another like it.There isn't already a thread for this?
SMH.

Ha ha!It is a "somewhat unique" way of making a point
With the injury he's got he's not a 27 and 12 player any more. He'd be closer to 12 and 7 if he's lucky.
Still not a bad deal for $5m though
