Homer News: Milwaukee Bucks (36-29)

Hooped Up | March 15, 2010

Bucks hold off Pacers at the end to sweep home stand
After beating three powerful teams – Cleveland, Boston and Utah – the Bucks tried hard not to peek ahead to their three-game western trip this week. They almost did.

But a more-than-solid showing by the bench helped rescue a sluggish performance by the starters as the Bucks were able to improve their record to 36-29 with their sixth straight victory 12th in their last 13.

Forward Jerry Stackhouse was hot early and he led the way with 20 points in 24 minutes off the bench, and four Bucks reserves combined to score 46 points, almost matching the starters’ total of 52. Read More »

Served: Rush Gets Got By Andrew Bogut

Hooped Up | February 26, 2010

Andrew Bogut is a fuel injected dunk machine. He is the rocker, he is the roller, he is the out-of-controller!

That’s what I imagine “The Nightrider“  would have said about this Bogut dunk on Brandon Rush if he was a guest blogger on Hooped Up today — and if Mad Max didn’t blow him up.

Andrew Bogut Out 2-4 Weeks

Hooped Up | November 19, 2009

Milwaukee Bucks General Manager John Hammond announced today that Andrew Bogut (7-0, 260) suffered a lower left leg strain and contusion in Wednesday’s 99-85 win against New Jersey that is expected to sideline the fifth-year center for two-to-four weeks.  Bogut scored team-highs of 21 points and 11 rebounds in the win and left the game late in the fourth period and did not return to action.

Bogut, 24, was examined by Bucks orthopedic physician Dr. Michael Gordon, M.D., and underwent an MRI exam this morning, which revealed the injury.

In nine games this season, Bogut has averaged 16.1 points, 9.2 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.44 blocked shots in 33.6 minutes per game.

Bogut Donates $30K To Help Spirit

Hooped Up | December 15, 2008

For the Spirit of the Australian basketball league Santa Claus is 7 feet tall, plays for the Milwaukee Bucks and wears #6.

“After discussing ways to help out his mentor and Spirit coach Rob Beveridge, Bogut has made the first donation to a special bank account established to raise funds for the Sydney club’s players and coaching staff – a tidy $30,000.

It may pale in comparison to what Bogut earns in the US – this week he placed fifth on the BRW top 50 Australian sports earners list with $8.2 million.

But it was still welcome good news for Spirit players who recently took a drastic pay cut in an NBL rescue package to ensure they played out the rest of the season.”

Bogut Injured In Bucks Loss

Hooped Up | November 25, 2008

Losing Bogut for an extended period of time, is the last thing the Bucks need right now.

“The Milwaukee Bucks, already without their starting backcourt of Michael Redd and Luke Ridnour due to injuries, lost Andrew Bogut to a bruised knee in the third quarter Monday night against Orlando.

And the Bucks also lost the game, as Dwight Howard scored 24 points and grabbed 13 rebounds for the Magic in a 108-101 victory.”

Garnett Suspended For Taunting Boguts Face With Fist

Hooped Up | November 17, 2008

Sometimes things actually work in favor for the New York Knicks.  According to reports, the heart and soul of the Celtics squad aka Kevin Garnett was suspended today for a game, starting tomorrow against the Knicks for striking Bucks center Andrew Bogut in the face on Saturday. This is surprising given the incredible verbal taunting superpowers Garnett posses.

The incident happened in the last quarter of the Celtics 102 -97 victory over the Bucks when Bogut struck Garnett in the mouth after being fouled. Bogut was tossed from the game after receiving his second technical of the match and today his foul on Garnett was upgraded to a flagrant foul penalty one.

Is it me or is the NBA is handing out suspensions like condoms at a V.D. clinic these days.

Hooped Up: Milwaukee Bucks 08-09 Season Preview

Hooped Up | October 25, 2008

A team-by-team preview of all 30 NBA teams heading into the 2008 – 2009 season, Hooped Up style.  

Milwaukee Bucks
The more things change, the more they stay the same.  The Bucks made a lot of changes this summer and even talked about moving the only star on the team in Micheal Redd, but this squad is still much the same. They hired Scott Skiles who will preach defense, added an impact wing player in Richard Jefferson and handed the reigns to Luc Ridnour after telling Mo Williams good bye in a trade to the Cavaliers. They have perimeter scoring covered but the depth in the front court is shallow and Bogut could use some real help.

Will frustrated Milwaukee fans finally have something to cheer about this year?  

Projected Starters: PG - Luc Ridnour / SG - Micheal Redd / SF - Richard Jefferson / PF - Charlie Villanueva / C -  Andrew Bogut

Additions:  Richard Jefferson, Luke Ridnour, Damon Jones, Adrian Griffin, Tyronn Lue, Malik Allen, Francisco Elson, Joe Alexander, Luc Richard Mbah a Moute

Losses: Maurice Williams, Desmond Mason, Yi Jianlian, Bobby Simmons, Royal Ivey

Projected Wins: 29+

Team Theme Song:  Beenie Man – Who Am I
This team does not have an identity and they need to ask themselves who are we. Zim Zimah!

Overall
Scott Skiles could have this squad playing smarter defensively, Andrew Bogut will continue to improve, Charlie Villanueva will get to showcase his underrated talents and Michael Redd and Richard Jefferson will pair to form one of the best wing combos in the league.  Howev, they still need a calling card to beat other teams, so they can grow on something and find a much needed direction .  If the Bucks were thinking about trading Micheal Redd this summer it’s pretty clear they are kinda confused. Who’s team is this

The playoffs won’t happen but, defense wins games and if they can buy into the philosophy of Scott Skiles they just might find their identity and be better next year.

Bogut’s Injury Worries Bucks

Hooped Up | August 21, 2008

Andrew Bogut, limping heavily toward Australia’s locker room, said he feared the worst. “I think it’s a ligament,” Bogut said. Halfway around the world, the Milwaukee Bucks were holding their collective breath. Bogut was to undergo an MRI today to determine the severity of an ankle injury he suffered during Australia’s 116-85 loss to the United States in the men’s basketball quarterfinals at the Olympic Games on Wednesday night.
