Call me crazy, but i've been hoping we bring bogans back in when he's playing well/the offense is executing well.

My favorite teams
  1. Chicago Bulls
DeRozan scored 6 points on 2 of 8 when Bogans was on the floor, and 18 points on 6 of 9 when he wasn't. If anything I wish we'd benched Korver and put Bogans out there at the end.

And no. Sorry Shakes, I'm not trying to beat up on you. But DeRozan trades that 1 option with Bargs. DeMarcus starts every game, like most athletic 1st options, and heat checks a lot.

Heat Chucking ≠ Bogan's incredible defense.

I just watched the game on demand and this has been the first time I realized how bad Boozer and Korver are defensively. They really cost us the game!

As for Rose in the fourth: Great performance but why in hell was he taking a jumper when driving to the basket worked about six straight times?

I'm not saying Bogans was incredible on defense, he's never anything more than servicable. But Korver was getting killed by him, Bogans wasn't. Thems the facts.

What defense? For 2-3 minutes he'll lock down a player, then he gets burned for the rest of the night. Bogans is NOT a defensive/intangible wizard. When Bogans is hitting shots, the whole floor is spread. When the whole floor is spread, teams like Toronto are burning their energy on defense. That's why we win games when Bogans is a factor, and lose them when he's not.

Bogans is at least an OK defender. McGrady is horrifically bad at this point in his career. I'm not complimenting Bogans, I'm insulting McGrady.

If there was a quote of the year award, this would be the winner.
