Early on in the 2009-10 season, we all watched the Milwaukee Bucks miss mid-range jumper after mid-range jumper. They had no one capable of getting to the rim and precious few 3-point shooters. This was a team that frequently started Charlie freaking Bell at the shooting guard position. But then Andrew Bogut got more assertive, Jerry [...]
