      Man I not saying boogie is better but I will say I don’t think we even got to see “prime” boogie

        Cousins never got to play with a good team except once with AD. I think I remember the two tearing it up before they got injured.

          @dznasty yeah the AD - Cousins team was on a roll , a huge what if .

          I am just not sure he had the temperament to be a champion, when he was healthy.

              Boogie before injury at C = DRose before injury at PG

              Could’ve been one of the best Centers of all time

                    I understand the comparison injury wise with Rose, but Boogie was more like a Luka at Center than a Rose. Rose had exceptionally great athleticism where Boogie was more bully and fundamental.

                    IF Boogie would have had a better attitude in his earlier years....who knows what he could've accomplished before his injuries.

                      @crackabydagram strictly based on how good they were pre injury to their team not playstyle

                      But yeah I was a big Boogie fan on the court, just not outside of that. He was a beast

                        Prime Boogie was still a tier below Jokic and Embiid. He's more comparable to KAT imo

                          @yosemite_ham Boogie was the better defender scorer and rebounder but I’ll give Jokic passing and leadership

                            @yosemite_ham Jokic and Cousins best years are comparable. Cousins has done it longer though. If Jokic can keep this level of consistency for a few more years I'd change my mind.

                              @rodsquad idk if I agree about better scorer. Jokic's bag is deeper and he's far more efficient. The gap in EFG is pretty big. Plus Jokic is a proven winner as a #1. Boogie not so much. I still stand by he's more comparable to KAT

                                    Like in a 1v1 scenario or who is the best to build a team around?

                                    For 1v1 I’m going Embiid>Boogie>Jokic

                                    To build a team round Jokic>Embiid>Boogie

                                      @rodsquad Boogie was great and I'm not trying to sell him short by saying imo he doesn't quite stack up to an MVP that just had one of the most dominant offensive seasons of all time lol

                                      I think it's the "dominating on bad teams" that make me lean more toward KAT

                                          Jokic

                                              Kat isn’t better than Embiid or Jokic either

                                                  The KAT comparison is actually really good. I used to be a big kings fan back in the day when Demarcus & rudy played there. For all the numbers the guy put up his play didn’t translate to wins. Granted the kings have been a shit show since like 06’.. however I might be bugging but I saw that the pels were actually better without boogie(Wins & losses)
