Bloody hell Andrew, SHOOT MORE YOU CROATIAN TOOL!... ok that's my frustration for today. He had a decent game against the Cavs, sort of.

24 minutes
10 points
5/6 FG
3 rebounds
2 steals
1 assist
1 block

Rebounding numbers are bad obviously, but if you're shooting 5/6 why are you not talking another 4 or 5 shots? Andre Barrett managed 4 shots in like 11 minutes, Desmond Mason shot 1-7. The Bucks need to give him the ball when he's hot, otherwise it's just a waste of time.

jae. he already has a thread so is there going to be bet invovling this guy or what?

Sun Oct 16, 2005 2:38 pm

What are your terms?

Sun Oct 16, 2005 2:54 pm

i dont know. maybe we can agree on something by the time the season starts. nothing serious. just for kicks

Sun Oct 16, 2005 4:56 pm

Yeah no worries, I'll be in it. Since I'm about the only one who's going to post in this thread :lol: unless Darko gets mentioned again :roll:

Just you and Bogut :lol:. J/k, a lot of my family comes from Croatia (and Serbia&Monte Negro).

Who would you rather see become a star - Darko or Bogut? I'm going with Darko.

Sun Oct 16, 2005 7:12 pm

Well i'll choose Darko because of the situation he's been put in (averaging 2 points per game)... but it would be nice to see Bogut become a star but Darko deserves it more

Sun Oct 16, 2005 7:18 pm

Imagine seeing Darko and Bogut in the future. Both being stars and battling each other ala Magic vs. Bird.

Sun Oct 16, 2005 9:14 pm

I'm seriously going to split the next Darko discussion :x

- I doubt thta.. it's more like Duncan vs. Garnett to a very lesser extent!

I would like Darko to be a star, too. That would prove all the hatas wrong!!1!1!!11

All these preseason games offer little as to players progress. Game action is what is really needed.

Mon Oct 17, 2005 8:42 am

these games are meaningful for players/coaches on new teams or players returning from major injuries

anyway, jae- assuming he starts, what do you think he'll average pts & rebs wise? we could work off of that

his shots could have been when he was open, or off offensive boards. its too hard to tell without watching the game.

i dont think bogut will be amazing in his first year, probly averaging 10-7 or so, but he will still be great for a rookie.

Mon Oct 17, 2005 3:44 pm

Ye, I think he won't be getting much either. 10 and 7 sounds about right. I think Dan Gadzuric should get some playin time.

Mon Oct 17, 2005 5:19 pm

I think Bogeyman will get averages of 14, 8 and 2 assists, 1.5 blocks to boot! (Y)

Mon Oct 17, 2005 5:27 pm

I'll have to judge after watching him play (haven't looked at ESPN schedule yet) but i'll say 13 & 7.

i forgot about that - i rekon he will end up with 4assists a game once he gets the hang of the pace, but end up with 3 averaged out at the end of the season.
his passing is really good apparently

As for ESPN schedule, if you have Foxtel you wont know until the new guide comes :P Ive already checked and there isnt any games on in october.

Mon Oct 17, 2005 8:18 pm

12-13ppg, 7-8rpg, 2-3apg, 1-1.5bpg....good enough for All-Rookie 1st Team....

If im not mistaken , the Bucks don't have one nationally telivised game .

Mon Oct 17, 2005 8:56 pm

Actually, the ESPN Australia schedule just changed; originally the first game to be shown here was going to be Cavs vs Spurs but the Bucks/Nets game two games earlier will now be the first 2005/2006 season game shown here in Australia, so we'll open the season with Bogut.

- That's why he's sometimes compared to Vlade Divac and Brad Miller

he should get all rookie 1st team, no matter what or else his season is a disappointment.

i know the all rookie team doesn't necessarily go by position but still, who's his main compeition for the big man spot?

Fri Oct 21, 2005 5:18 pm

Is 74 overall good for a first year player?
Obviously that's Boguts overall.
