Bucks-Bobcats Postgame Thread 1/6/2007
Bogut is the greatest player in the history of the game.
Charlie Bell is the great player named Bell to ever play for the Bucks tonight.
Discuss.

ahhh so the Bogut bashers go to sarcasm...nice!...Does Bogut get 15 shots with Redd in the game? Do the Bucks go to Bogut down the stretch?? Do the Bucks actually play defense down the stretch with 22 in?? I sure do miss those fade away jumpers down the stretch............there should not be a game where Bogut does not get 12-15 shots a game, that should be a goal set by the coaching staff, we all know when things return that won't happen.

They looked to work some of the offense through him for a change. And Bogut made a free throw or two and Simmons drove and found Bogut for a finish that put the Bucks in control late.

how could you possibly do that? people say that, but if you've watched 2 hours and 15 minutes of basketball, how do you not watch the last 10

I was unable to see the game tonight as I'm interviewing in Cleveland, however, I followed the 4th quarter on gamecast.
Things I took away from that limited sample.
1. Defensive playmakers are huge. Mo, Bell, and Simmons independently came up with steals at big times in the 4th quarter. That's what won us the game.
2. It is nice not having a player gunning for a shot quota. It allows us to ride the hot hand. Bogut, Bell, and Mo shot the ball well and they were the guys with the ball at the end. That helps. No hero antics.
3. We need to start getting something from Yi again.He has cooled off significantly. CV has played better lately (outside of this game) but the fact remains that our PF's need to give us more.

Regarding Bogut: it's one game. He played great tonight. It's a one game sample. Lets see him do it more often and then the constant praise will come.
Bell/Simmons, like I mentioned in the other thread, when we actually get what we EXPECTED to get from these guys, we are usually at least in the game with a chance to win it. When those two suck we rely so much on Mo/Redd/Bogut to score.
Reason I like this win, it is only one win granted, is that we came back and took it. Shows the team hasn't given up, and I think the effort overall in this game also backs that up.

I think you know I'm not a Bogut basher. I just couldn't resist some fun.
In all seriousness, this was a game where Bogut should have gotten 20 shots given how dominant he was against a standout defensive center. It speaks volumes of the lack of intelligence of this team that he only got 15.
