I think it is. Wouldn't it mean Bogdan, son of Bogdan? Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

Yeah, Bogdan Bogdanovic literally means - Godgiven son of Godgiven :lol:

Bojan is better. Dude is a legit 20 ppg scorer who has all the moves. Both can pass. Neither is good on defense. I'll take Bojan.
Good assessment:

Bogdan has more swagger and at times looks like he could be a second or third option. But both are very good role players.

As in a lot of languages, English language really said no thanks to that and just went insane, its not a hard language, but I think English speakers who dont speak second language, have no clue how weird their language is to a lot of people.

I went with Bogdanovic in the end but truth be told both are excellent players who play within themselves and play underrated defense.

The way they differ is in their positional archetypes. Bogdan is a combo guard with a nice off-the-dribble game. He can shoot, pass, and can be a defensive pest on the perimeter sometimes. Bogdan is a legit terror on the perimeter, and inside the 3-point line his pull-up chops and passing skills synergize to make the defense really react to his attack. He's not particularly strong or athletic though. So far in these playoffs, it's felt more highlighted that he's only really dangerous on the perimeter. Once he gets into the teeth of the defense, he doesn't have the athleticism to generate a ton of scoring there.

Bojan is a combo forward, is bigger, and uses that size to post up and work out of the high post. He's physical and can get to the line. On the perimeter he's more of a c&s type than a ball handler. He's pretty good at staying in front of larger slashers, though I do think he's slowing down on that end. Bojan's scoring is a little more durable than Bogdan's because of that size and strength.

I don't think there's a meaningful enough gap between the two. You'd want Bogdan is you need a guard, and Bojan if you needed a forward. Both give you a great shooting threat with some bonus all-around game. Bogdan is younger, had a better season this year, and would be the better pick I think if you were signing him today. Bojan has been very good for at least 4 years, and has had the better career thus far.

Bojan has the task of guarding Leonard and he's doing great, so I have to go with him.

Bojan is better at both ends and has had great underrated career with Pacers and Jazz.

I prefer the one on the Hawks but in all honesty I'm not sure which one that is without thinking much too hard for my current mood. Both nice players but the Hawks one has a swag and ultra confidence to him.
