I honestly need to pay more attention to Bogut. There is suddenly so many good white players, even though in truth, they are not that many. The Aussie Boomer had another solid game, which might be the best I ever seen of him. A 103-97 OT win over Oklahoma!

23 points (9-17 FG's, 5-6 FT's)
15 rebounds
2 assists
1 steal
2 blocks

So much for Bogut's supposed lack of athleticism by the experts. He is showing he was worth the first pick in the draft.

Another great game by Bogut today. He had 18 points on 9 of 16 shooting, an incredible 17 rebounds, 4 assists, a steal, and 6 blocked shots!!

Career-high game for Bogut! 32 points in a close 108-107 Bucks loss to Dallas. Dirk had 28 points.

Bogut should be an All-Star come next season, unless injuries and inconsistent plays comeback to haunt him.

I don't watch a lot of basketball, but I follow the states of white players on the internet. I have noticed a pattern, that Bogut usually plays at an all star caliber level when Michael Redd is not in the starting lineup shooting his usual 9-27 from the field.

17 points, 18 boards and 3 blocks for Bogut! Milwaukee lost the game, though.

His blocking-prowess has been impressive! He's now up to 2.3 blocks per game.

Why didn't anybody post about his spectacular 24 point, 20 rebound and 5 block game - against the Knicks?!

According to ESPN, a game like that is a rarity!

He's been on a tear as of late. He's had a few games with 5 blocks. I'm so happy that he has silenced all his critics who thought he was a bust. The only reason he's not an All-Star right now is because he doesn't shoot as much as he should.

He has managed to stay healthy, and, hopefully, that will continue.

I know I've said Kaman is the best center in the league but I think Bogut might be just as good or better. Last night he had 21 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocked shots. Kaman is better on the offensive end but nobody blocks shots like Andrew.

Bogut is an animal!! Last night he had 19 points on 8 for 16 shooting to go along with 12 rebounds. The most impressive is 7 blocks.

I caught ESPN Sportscenter yesterday, and they showed ZERO highlights of Bogut.

It's been a break-thru year for Bogut. If he can become a 70-75% FT shooter, then he'd give Howard a run for best center of the East.

Bogut's good for 16-10 now, improving his FT% will make him a near 20-10 threat.

Bad News!!!

Andrew Bogut OUT for the season!!

After making a monster 2-handed dunk, He slipped of the rim, falling awkward and hard, suffering a DISLOCATED right elbow, initial medical reports show NO broken bones.

Speedy recovery to the Aussie!

DAMNNN... I wanted to watch him in the playoffs.

Double damn! He was playing great and getting awesome reviews. The Bucks finally lost ball hog Michael Redd and started going to Bogut who may also be the best passing big man in the league and this happens.

Bogut's fall was gruesome looking. Let's hope there's no lasting damage to his elbow.

One thing worth mentioning is that Bogut was catching up to Dwight Howard in blocks per game. He was a bit behind. He did however overtake Howard in blocks per 48 minutes.
