I wouldn’t say Bogut has lucked out,
but landing in San Fran just as Patty is soon to in San Antonio, are second chances both well and truly needed, for once it seems for lack of a better phrase the stars have aligned for our two NBA Australian talents and their situations.

Bogut’s two interviews, one to the press, and one more privately with Barnett was really the first time I’d genuinely entertained the notion that Bogut could actually reach or even possibly exceed his potential of more than just a decent no.1 pick big in an average draft year.
He looks the real deal in the bay area, comfortable, happier, a class act, as one might be considering he’ll not play a game for his new club until next season, but even then this move has the potential to turn the possible quality big into the force he lets be honest should have been by now if it weren’t for a lot of outside factors.
