You think after Kahn got burned with damaged goods last offseason (Webster) that he is eager to trade for an injury prone big man owed 39 million dollars? Bogut is a good player, but the contract combined with the injuries make his trade value take a big dive.

You certainly aren't getting 2 for less than bogut/10. That offer that included wes and randolph along with 2 was one of the worst trades I've ever seen.

Great post. I hadn't thought of your first point.

This makes only slightly as much sense as the horrendous Kevin Love + 2 for Pau Gasol trade. Which is a hair better than the Hershel Walker trade.

But keep dreaming, Bucks fans. But lets be real. Bogut is a good player with "Great" potential that gets hurt every time he begins to show flashes of that. Its tragic, but with a looming CBA, NOBODY is going to be trading or signing FAs on "potential"

Its a pretty bad contract considering how often he's injured. and he's not exactly a young kid anymore. People are foolishly underselling Derrick Williams. The kid is going to be a Josh Smith type.

Trading him for Bogut would be a mistake.
