Bogut Nearly an All-Star

Just came across a great article from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Online, quoting Orlando Coach Stan Van Gundy who thinks Bogut should have been an All-Star.
He’s probably more of a true center than a lot of the other guys that people have talked about at that position.  Most of them are power forwards playing up a position, [...]

Bogut for All-Star? Why Not?

Thanks to NBAMate reader Zac for posting this one.  Seems like the “Bogut for All-Star” campaign is not dead yet, according to  Steve Aschburner at NBA.com.
Also, my respect for Jerry Stackhouse has grown significantly. Check these quotes:

Sunday Six Pack – Bynum’s knee, Bogut’s return and Shaq’s love for Kobe

Sorry Celts!

I take it all back. To Celtics fans, I apologise. I was so sure today’s game would result in a San Antonio victory I’d already chalked it up in the “L” column. A team anchored around their missing power forward, KG, facing the best power forward in the game in Tim Duncan. Ray Allen and [...]
