[...] clutchtime mistake in the last 32 seconds of game play here, failing to realize he was driving on the best interior defender in the entire NBA in Larry Sanders, coming up empty on a two-hand drive to the rim. The contact from Sanders was slight, the defense [...]

Hopefully Henson is soon to rise into the same category!

remember that last time he was diagnosed with back spasms, it turned out to be a fracture.. so at least I hope that they are getting the diagnosis correct

Speaking of Bogut…did you see he is out again because of a protruding
disk causing back spasms. He is out indefinitely and did not go on their 5 game road trip. He may join the team later in the week.

Sound familiar Bucks fans? Poor guy just can’t stay healthy.

“I don’t believe in Science, I believe in Jesus” my version of the line from Nacho Libre.. think they messed the color scheme up though.. If red was positive or hot, then shouldn’t blue be ice cold? I’ll bet David Lee’s post defense numbers improve dramatically when Boguie is in there

I believe I was leading that train.. he must have gone to a hypnotist or something because I still don’t understand how he just one day got it.. so weird and feel so lucky he is on the team now

I read the report when Jon posted the link and found it interesting. Games are won by playing offense and defense and it’s nice to have some meaningful metrics to show the positive impact a player’s defense can have on a team. Let out a big Ah-Ha when I understood the “Howard Effect”.

Nice job of summarizing that report to more digestible bites!

Go Larry! Go Bucks!

It’s so funny how at the beginning of the season we (myself included) were making jokes about his fouling in summer camp, and just basically not thinking much of him other than his upside. Now, he’s become the only “untouchable” Buck at the trade deadline and I can’t imagine the team being much good without him. Awesomeness: Sanders is thy name!
