My observation of him last year is he can look good in certain situations and still has a high skill level. But against certain lineups with guards who know how to pick on a stiff bigs he can be played off the floor.

Worth a shot even if it's just in a 15-20 minute type role.

Non-guaranteed, so I'll predict he doesn't make it to the new year.

??? We have plenty of character and good culture on this roster. I don't think you need to be worried about Boogie Cousins coming in and ruining that lol.

Give us 12 minutes of non-completely-terrible play per game and take a few hard fouls.

The bar is Semi And Thanasis.

Be better than that.

Assuming this is bad re Brook
Also assuming Boogie either sucks now or douches it up. That said, this is an ultra low risk move and I think it's great

Portis and Tucker were both "character risks" and both of those worked out. I have confidence in this front office when it comes to bringing in guys to fit in w/ Bucks culture.

This makes me feel like Brook is still a ways away from returning. But even if he was going to be back soon, having another center on the roster so that Giannis doesn't have to take that damage too often is a good thing.

My favorite part of this signing is that it gives us another big (along w/ Bobby) that won't tolerate bull from the other team.

Love it. Can't think of a better opportunity for Boogie if he has anything left in the tank.

Choosing to believe that Brook is ok, but they realize his minutes and rest will have to be carefully managed for the rest of the regular season.

He's no Cheick Diallo but he's at least something.

Clippers were 11 points worse per 100 with Boogie on the floor in the regular season, and an embarrassing 21 points worse in the playoffs. He's terrible.

How dare you call Bobby a character risk! Always been a highly intense, hard working, great dude.

I like it. He can help with rebounding at least which is our biggest problem with both Giannis and Lopez out. Former all star level player as a back is a luxury for us.

He doesn't. If he did the last 7 teams or whatever would have signed him for the min.

I just want to see Boogie to Gianiss alley oops.

Cheick should have a 2way spot for sure

Counterpoint: It took a while for Derrick Rose to stick to a team as well. So obviously this is going to work out maybe.

Not about to argue any of that other than following points:

- he won't see a minute in the playoffs outside maybe round 1
- terrible is a relative term when you consider we're using Semi and Thanasis as the baseline comparator.
