  • Four-time NBA All Star and two-time All NBA DeMarcus Cousins joins Outta Pocket for a three episode run to discuss everything from his time at Kentucky, his NBA player inspirations and so much more.
    Join Josiah Johnson, LaJethro Jenkins, and Zach Schwartz as they chat with Boogie about his career. They breakdown how he got the nickname 'Boogie,' when he first knew he could make the NBA, and what his college recruitment process was like. Boogie shares stories about his time at Kentucky, his relationship with John Wall and Coach Calipari, and the time he got dunked on by an unexpected NBA player. Then the guys discuss why Boogie considers Tim Duncan his GOAT, and why he believes Chris Paul is not a Top 5 point guard all time. #nba #chrispaul #timduncan #demarcuscousins #kentucky

      Cousins after injuries couldn't defend a brick wall. He cam be as talented as he wants.... a Center anchors your defense and gets boards. He no longer couldn't do either at a good level. Its reasons cousins isnt in the game anymore. Father was stalking cousins since college 🙄

    I love his CP3 take. BC it is 100 accurate. CP3 hasn`t one anything. Except the crwon on being the only player, who blew 5 (!) 2-0 playoffs leads with his teams. And if anyone claims it wasn`t on him, watch the series again. He made crucial mistakes over and over again in crunch times..

  • @Wuncler
    @Wuncler Před rokem +11

    Man I appreciate the Duncan Homage because he is literally a top 5 player and one of the most complete players. Many people only remember his later years when he was old and much slower but he was literally dominant on both sides. He was strong as hell too cause like Demarcus said he couldn’t do nothing with him. His defense, fundamentals, skill and automatic mid range would’ve translated in any era.
