Bogut is mush better on defense than jordan. That's no debate. Who cares if he's more athletic? Bogut is a much smarter and better defender.

Who never plays because he's always injured.

A lesser contributing center who actually plays trumps a highly skilled guy who's always on the sideline in a suit.

I'm sure the Orlando Magic took little comfort in the fact that Grant Hill was better than 95% of the SF's in the NBA.

Jordan > Bogut

 

[Mecca]

Also blocks is not a good indicator of great defense. It's a small indicator

LMFAO....Dude, any category that isn't pro-Bogut is minimized?

 

[Mecca]

He's always been important

He's always been injured.

He's missed well over 30% of his Teams game throughout his career.

?. Bogut is always up there in blocks. All I was saying was that altering shots is more important.

Yes Mecca, Bogut is the original Mr. Glass.

It's pretty close actually when all are playing. I shouldn't say he's much better than jordan on defense. But on defense he is better IMO.

Honest question:

If you polled the 30 GM's in the NbA, how many would take Bogut over Jordan?

I say ZERO.

Nobody would touch that contract with his injury History.

Hell, the Warriors even preferred Jordan when they signed him to a offer sheet. But, the Clippers matched.

Outside of noah and Howard I dot think any of those guys are as good as bogut

Then I'll never quote you again because you either

A-Have your head up your ass

B-Are a full on homer

C-Both

Oh... I totally agree.

If healthy, Bogut is the better guy.

But, his constant injuries and age make Jordan more appealing.

Bogut is actually a decent offensive Center too.

He just doesn't need to show it in Golden State.

That is something Jordan will never be.

 

[DJ]

Did he just type when healthy? Because, that's not very often.

 

[Mecca]

Yes Mecca, Bogut is the original Mr. Glass.

Sad..But, so.

I understand what Ham is saying.

Hell, my favorite Player is Chris Webber.

He is the poster child for unrealized potential due to constant injury.

Lee gets points and rebounds? I'm calling

8.8ppg and 4.3rpg.

And don't expect him to suddenly get better. He's broken.

I wonder if the Lakers can win 20 games this season.

 

[DJ]

Bogut's games played (just the last 4 seasons):

12
32
67
20 of 28 so far

He's played like 3 games and came off the bench with little time. I'm talking about last year and all those other years

You are just as delusional as Lakers fans.

I disagree. Are we really judging a guy based on 3 games on a minute restriction? He has not played 20 minutes in any of the 3 games back as they're obviously trying to slowly bring him along. Since he came back he is avg 9.7 PPG & 5.7 RPG in 18 MPG....that's pretty solid.

Lee always got points and rebounds excluding his rookie year in NYC. If you start Lee, you can almost pencil him in for at least 17 & 10.

You don't have to lol. I'm usually spot on what I say anyway. Lol but I'm not saying no center can replace him. Some can Replace him but not 100%. I would say 5-6 centers

Rondo looked like Rod Strickland driving to the rim for layup after layup last night.

I like your team.

Once everyone gets comfortable in their roles, Dallas will be cooking with gas.
