Bogut sticking his big butt out to set screens while holding the ball to pass was so unusual..

But having curry and clay, running off the ball, made the screening setting passer make sense.

I think old Wes Unseld on the 1979 championship Bullets also did that. Penbeast and I and a few others may be the only guys at RealGM that remember Wes Unseld.

Wes Unseld, Wilt Chamberlain, Johnny Red Kerr. This technique was used quite often in the 1960s and 1970s.

Tom Boerwinkle was also good at setting screens while adding the threat of being a decent passer.
