Not sure if this is written about on the Bucks boards but I was told from a good source (neighbor works for the Kings) that Bogdan's camp leaked the trade after getting a better contract offer from Atlanta... are you suggesting that if the bucks continued to recruit him they would have had a better chance of keeping him?
As the story goes, they had had the deal done with the team but never actually talked to the player. Bogdanovic ultimately had no interest in the contract that needed to be signed in order to complete the trade. And once the deal leaked out, his agent then went to Atlanta and had them tamper with him in discussions so that he was ready to sign with them instead. Windhorst reported the details of his contract with Atlanta before they were legally allowed to discuss anything too lol.
All once green went out
That will be an interesting vote as Draymond is lobbing hard for it and the media loves him.
The Warriors are #1 in defense and tied for the best record in the league but Rudy is arguably having his best season ever. 14.7 rbg, 2.26 bpg and .96 spg while Draymond is only at 8 rpg, 1 bpg and 1.32 spg. Those numbers just dwarf Draymond's.
Not only that... we know that Draymond's overall impact is low when the team around him isn't good, whereas Gobert pretty much singlehandedly makes whatever team he's on have an elite defense.
So I googled "NBA Defensive Player Rankings" and Rudy was ranked something like 32nd. Not sure how they figure the calculation but all you have to do is watch his games to see how much he impacts the shots taken but more importantly the shots not taken. If he doesn't get it again this year something is wrong.
So what's Draymond doing differently this season that wasn't happening in season's past? Genuine question, I really don't know.
Yeah, just weird when a great defensive player falls off due to effort. If it is that.
To answer Jeff’s question…Yes, a possession that ended with an actual stop. Gobert kept knocking it back to the Cavs and could have been called for defensive three seconds or out of bounds.
Ha! The chances that we both would’ve posted that same tweet at almost the same time must’ve been astronomically low.
Or were they?
The heck were that guy’s parents thinking?
Exactly.
