This is terrible. Who backs up Danny G? The terror communicated in all levels of that question should rock you to the core. This way, Bogut gets back in time to join his sub .500 team on a vicious West coast swing. Oh, and he won’t be an All Star now.

I somewhat believe that the Bucks have some “No more than two decent or better players shall take the court” curse placed on the team by Ernie Grunfeld or some German who wasn’t allowed to watch the game with his pig in 1915. At least Jennings didn’t blow out his knee. Bogut is tough and should return earlier than scheduled, though I have no faith in our training staff to diagnose/treat anything.

Does this give Andrew Bogut the dreaded “injury prone” tag? Does he already have it? Or is it just normal for big men to miss a bunch of games here and there?

I’m a little concerned about why Kurt Thomas hasn’t been playing much so far. Could he be injured, not showing much in practice…or was Skiles just saving him for situations like this as part of the master plan?

In any case, we’re much better off than we were last season. Ilyasova is providing more support defensively than Villanueva could ever dream of, and that has to make life easier for whoever is playing at center.

Hi there Frank!

Thanks for the comment on my blog. Hope to see you drop by more often.

Now back to the post. This must be a real blow too the Bucks amazing run this season. It was pretty tough to carry on with REDD and now with BOGUT, things might just be more complicated for them.

But let’s not push the panic button here. They still got plenty of talent in Kurt THOMAS and Francisco ELSON. I believe both of them can step up to the plate.

For now, it’s not about individual but more as a collective and teamwork. I’m sure the Bucks wil prevail.

I am the one who coined the rule “never count on Danny G”, yet here we are, Gadz with an opportunity to redeem himself in full measure if he can play 30 minutes of run, defend and rebound type basketball.

Don’t shoot it in the half court. Don’t bobble outlet passes, just play within yourself like you have been doinfg for 5 minute stretches this season thus far. You have played under control, stay that way.

Now, will that happen? We’re all gringing, we’re all scared to death to give the reins over to the erractic, foul prone, turnover prone Danny G.

Whichever Gadz shows up will have a huge impact on how we handle these next (say) ten games. This off season we need to address our lack of talented big men.
