16/10/2/2 and it only looks like he's going to be improving. He's a stud.

Bogut would be sick on the Thunder, perfect fit for both.

I'd stand rooting for a Bogut to Thunder trade!

Maybe a future allstar

I'd love go get him on the Jazz. Dwill, Boozer, Bogut is a hell of trio to build around and I think his passing ability would really shine in Sloan's system.

Bogut, Gasol, Bynum and Lopez are on similar levels. Kaman and Jefferson a step below. Bogut is a great defensive anchor and has extremely skilled, efficient low-post scorer. I'd love to see him with a better roster (or traded to a good team.)

Has anyone looked at how weak the Bucks roster is? Jenning is their second best player, someone who shoots 35% from the field. Bogut deserves a lot of credit for making that team .500 (which isn't much below the Raptors by the way, a team with far more talent).

I think he's underrated. He should have been an allstar before David Lee. The guy is probably the best off-hand shooter in the NBA along with Kobe/Sheed. He has great post moves and is a fantastic passer. I think he can move to 20/10 & 2.5 blocks next year.

Bogut definitely deserve the all star spot over Lee. This is a perfect case of big city bias.

Bogut is better then Lee because he defends.

He does everything well, nothing super elite, but it makes him a good player.

Rebounds very well
Passes very well
Is a good offensive player with a wide variety of moves
Defends well, blocks and draws charges and uses good position

He isn't the most athletic guy, but he's very skilled.

He's also a nice guy. I used talk to him once and a while and fix his computer when he was at the U of U and he was cool and would hang and chat a while when he came by. He knew he was going to be a #1 pick and was still very down to earth. I'm glad to see him doing well.

And he seems to care about the game and his team. He started a contest this year to get a bunch of the loudest fans and he buys them tickets to every home game. How cool is that of a player?

Bogut Rocks.

Bogut Rocks.

I'm part of the Squad 6 and it has been my coolest experience as a Bucks fan. Definitely a down to earth guy.

Hi, I just wanted to bump this thread and ask if it's okay if we talk about Andrew Bogut now.

Also by your logic should we cease any and all discussions about Raptors players from here on out?

Wow, that seemed to have rubbed you the wrong way. I was always confident that the Bucks would get in the playoffs. I thought the Heat would be the team to fail, not the raps

Bogut was the 2nd best C in the NBA this past year.

In terms of centers.

Dwight/Yao/Bogut

the rest.

How long is Bogut out for?

He will be 100% healthy and ready to go for training camp.

Bogut emerged as the clearcut 3rd best center in the league the 2nd half of the season. The first half of the season all those guys were in the same boat.

3rd?

He's 2nd, although maybe you're putting Duncan at C, that's the only guy other than Dwight I'd put ahead of Bogut at C.

Duncan is a Center and has been for a few seasons now.

I'd say at this point in their careers Bogut is better defensively and Duncan better offensively. Both very good centers though and I rate them pretty close to eachother.
