Dwight went 24/16 and 19/10 against Avi Lee this season. Only blocked 2 shots total. Obviously Bogut was expected to do well against Lee but some Knick fans are acting like everyone puts up 20/20/5 on him.

David Lee's total blocks for the season: 24
Bogut's last six games: 23 :lol:

Great game from Bogut, doesn't matter who the opponent was.

Yeah because people drop 20/20/5 blks all the time! :roll:


oh but against Lee it happens all the time. Maybe not 20/20 but Lee is the double double machine.. in the sense that he's going to give you a double double but also give up a double double.

Wow. didn't realise he was THAT bad. What does he bring to the Knicks? If he going to give up all the points he scores in defense. Why bother. :lol:

Why so much hate from NY fans?

20/20/5 is massive no matter what team you play.

Our D has been mad since we shifted Warrick off onto the Bulls.

Bogut i would put as the 3rd best center in the league behind Yao and Howard. Yes, i'm a lakers fan and i would trade bynum for bogut straight up with no hesitation.


First time I've ever seen a Laker fan say that.


well allow me to provide the second :)

Their starting PG shoots 3/14 from the field every game.
They are starting a Small Forward at the 4.
Carlos Delfino and Charile Bell are their starting wing.

You look at their roster and you think, How are they winning all these games? How are they even respectable? On paper, they look like they have the worst talent in the entire league. You think the Houston Rockets are devoid of talent? If you combine the two teams, this is what the starting lineup would look like.

Aaron Brooks
Trevor Ariza (Martin should start here but lets not count him yet)
Shane Battier
Luis Scola
Andrew Boguts

This is how bad the Milwaukee Bucks are. Only one guy from their team would start on the Rockets. (Altho he would probably be the best player from the 2 teams)

I've seen alot of their games and they're actually quite fun to watch. They hustle, they move the ball well, they rebound, they defend and most importantly they play as a unit. The Bucks really only have 2 good defensive players. They defend better than you'd imagine considering how many liabilities they have out there. The Bucks shouldn't be this good. They're way waaaaaaay overachieving.

So where will Bogt end up in the ALL-NBA teams then?

2nd team? 3rd team? no team?

Big deal, theyve beaten crappy teams they should beat (they are 9-20 against teams above .500). They are right where i thought they would be, around the lower end of the east playoff picture. Nothing to see here folks, move along.

Skiles is doing a great job, and Bogut is a very good 2-way player, underrated by most fans. They are definitely EXTREMELY low on talent, on pretty much every other team in the NBA Bogut and Salmons are the only guys who could start, and they've only had Salmons for 6 games. Jennings, Delfino, Mbah a Moute, Bell, etc. are mediocre bench players.

Isn't that what good teams do, beat crappy teams?

Edit: Didn't the Celts just got a beating at home by one of the worst teams in recent years?

You don't represent the majority of people that thought that the Bucks would win 25 games.
