I loved that at the end of the game we went to Bogut for a big bucket out of the post. Love it. Bobby with 9, 5 and 5. Couple great finds for Bogut dunks...on that early backdoor play and on that late inbounds to seal it.

Charlie Bell with that huge triple when the game was tied. The CV the putback next time down the court to make it 79-74.

Anyone notice Bogut go to Redd for a five and hug right as the buzzer sounded? Probably happenstance, but it was nice to see.

Bobby Simmons is by far the best at passing into the post on this team...CV might be second.

Agree, he also seems to be keen to do it at every oppurtunity. I have no idea of the teams personal dynamics, but I get the feeling Bobby and AB might get along well, along with perhaps Charlies B and V. Those 3 guys seem to have led the charge in getting the ball to Bogut lately, which could i suppose in turn say they'd rather he be the leader than Michael Redd, pure speculation though and i may be way off.

I hadn't even noticed that. 0 fouls and 4 blocks? That is impressive.

I didn't see the game, but I'm going to draw the conclusion that Bogut was awesome from the boxscore and what everyone has said. This is starting to become a trend, which is sweet.

Past 7 games:
20.3 Points
10.0 Rebounds
3.0 Assists
1.4 Blocks
66.6% FG

Possibly, doesn't mean it's a good deal for us though. I wouldn't trade Redd for Conley and a garbage filler.


I would in a heartbeat

Earlier someone mentioned Collison and he's still raw on the offensive end, but man that kid defends like his life depends on it. Seeing a passionate defender like him playing PG after so many years of Cassell/TJ/Mo would be a shock to my senses.

I didn't see the game as my interest in watching the Bucks has been waning quite a bit, but by the sounds of it here and by the boxscore, Andrew played very well again. I'm crossing my fingers that this isn't just a short term trend, so much of this franchise's hope for the future rides on what Bogut becomes.

Also good to see we held the Hawks to 80 points on 36 percent shooting, i'm sure Ivey playing for Mo helped in that defensive effort. My biggest frustration with the Bucks for so many years was their softness and bad defense has made it to rare for us to win games when the offense struggles and doesn't put up around 100 points.

I'm glad to see that Andrew Bogut is finally playing to his potential. He has all the tools to be a top five center in the league and in time he will be. Bogut is your true franchise player and you have to get him more touches.

I missed this game, how did Bobby play? Did he look a bit more free in his movement?

Andrew Bogut continues to showcase why he was chosen number 1 overall: 21 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, and 4 blocks!!!! :bowdown:



Hopefully Redd 'Redd' my signature. He played like it and backed off today for the betterment of the team. When he did take shots they mostly were more open then when he tries to take someone one-on-one.
Ivey earned a starting role in my book.

Sparky thinks that Redd and Mo should sub for each other. I can buy into it and it would probably would work with some overlap just so they can get their minutes. So in that case I'd pair up Ivey with Redd and pair Mo with Bell off the bench. For the overlap times play with 3 guards so Mo isn't at pg. If it isn't realistic to bring mo off the bench, then we start Ivey, mo, redd.
