Boogie interview with Bill Simmons

I love Boogie, but man, like Tyreke, these guys don't interview very well. He and his team are trying to get him out in the media more, but it seems like a force. Guys like Rudy and even Nik Stauskas come across with a more livelier personality. Nonetheless, it was good interview, and I'm glad to see him dispelling the thought that he's some angry child in a man's body.

Some interesting nuggets:
B-Mac getting more touches
How he would fit with Rondo, thinks Rondo is the best PG, hmmmm, make it happen Pete
Thinks we're an 7/8 seed this year
Thinks Nik is ready right now to help

Great interview. Bill Simmons does a good job with these.

Can't knock Cousins because he is shy during interviews. Cousins seems to have a great personality when he is around those he is comfortable with. Perfect example would be any charity event DeMarcus attends, this summer league in the stands where Cousins visited sign lady, Cousins when you see him on the street with kids.

If anything I applaud Cousins for channeling his inner Coach Pop. :cool:

I agree. I follow Boogie on IG, he's definitely more comfy around those close to him.

Hate him on ESPN but this was a pretty good interview.

Oh, we know. But Ray is still flying under the radar for most people. He still needs the time and opportunity to prove to everyone else that he is a legitimate NBA point guard, but many (if not most) here believe he has the potential to be starter on this team.

Never mind. I saw the video again. I know what you're saying.

I hope he keeps doing stuff like that. Don't mind his demeanor at all. Really would have liked to see them with Jalen but maybe that'll give them an excuse to do another one down the line.

Really solid interview. Both Simmons and Cousins did a great job. I found it interesting he said Al Jefferson was the toughest guy to go against. Also, I love the optimism -- he agreed it would take 48-50 wins to get the 7th or 8th seed and said the Kings are making it.
