Good I'm all for it and Ibaka can stay in street clothes. Whoever wants to suit up and play lets go! Might as well skip the formalities and sign him for the rest of the season.

I’m fine with it. We need front court help. He and Dedmon were my top choices that were available.

I’m confused though. Is it just a 10 day contract or rest of the season? I’ve seen both reported.

10 day makes more sense right now to kick his tires, fill the league roster spot, etc..

Don't really care about Cousins. I don't think we'll play him much. BUT what does this tell us about Ibaka's injury ? He missed last 9 games. Is it more serious than they say ?

10 day should work for both Cousins and the clippers. Determine if both sides want to fully commit to the role Cousins will play and the situation

I'm okay with the signing. One game Tye Lue needs to have a line up including Pat Bev, Rondo, Morris and Boogie. Wonder how many techs that line up would get.

I'll take it, seems like Ibaka's injury is lingering, and I don't want him to be rushed back. Cousins can play as a stretch big, and he can grab rebounds and foul people.

I have no clue what state he is currently in

I guess it's good? seems like a Joakim Noah like move

I saw a video where he appeared to be killing it. Of course, it looked like a Y pickup league,so I would hope he looked dominant.

He did have a 28 point game this season, so he can't be totally washed up

While I don't like Cousins as a person, I think it's a decent depth pickup. I'm getting a bit anxious about Ibaka's injury, and other than Zu, we don't have a legit centre.

I worry about chemistry since Boogie is a bit of loose cannon, but having former teammates like Rondo and Patterson (Kentucky) might help with that.

I liked the Noah signing, too bad we'll never know if he could've helped because he never got to play...

The least Ibaka can do is film some more episodes of How Hungry Are You? Damn...

From what I hear he's a great guy off the court. Never any legal issues as far as I know of and does fund raisers and community service. I know had beef with CP3 and Blake to a minor degree way back in the days but what opposing team didn't?

and why is that bad? he's been terrific in the last few games with his energy, 3 pt scoring and team chemistry with the 2nd team.

I actually meant "on court" personality... There was that one time where he hit JJ Redick in mid-air which caused him to fall awkwardly and fracture his hand. Redick tried to shake his hand afterwards and Cousins gave him a dirty look and walks off... And if you type "Cousins fight" in youtube, a bunch of searches come up :lol:

I guess as long as he does what he's supposed to do in the game, that's all that matters. He just seems like a really grumpy and negative person on the court.
