Funny Bogut declares for NBA draft

Andrew Bogut has officially declared for the draft after a press conference yesterday.

"I have no regrets and full-speed ahead," the 7-footer from Australia said at a news conference Monday.

Bogut, the leading vote-getter on the AP All-America team, averaged 20.4 points and 12.2 rebounds while leading the Utes to a 29-6 season, which ended with a loss to Kentucky in the regional semifinals of the NCAA Tournament.

Any chance ESPN will show the NBA draft on Australian television this year? Hopefully so and considering Bogut will go in the top 3&.if not number 1

it would be stupid not to have him as a number 1 draft, not only are his stats good, but he does a lot more things that aren't on the stat sheet too.

There is a good article I just read on Newspaper 'the age' website. Not massive, and if you have a spare minute it's worth checking out.

Second to last page of today's edition of The Advertiser has two good sized articles with photos about Bogut and Summerton too.

well is that boguts fault that the other players are small?that comment is the worst.bogut played in the olympics,started and played against the best big men in the world eg duncan,yao,ilgalskas,gasol and didnt look at of place, and got a few double doubles.

nbafan,

the last time you were double team by 7 footers was when???

Bogut did well against Duncan during the Olympics and does not take a backwards step. Does this mean that Chris Paul is overrated because he only plays against people taller than him???

Utah would not of been in the Sweet 16 and most probably the NCAA tournament if it wasn't for Bogut.

Just for interests sake, Bogut has not been drafted by the NBA.

i think bogut has alot of talent and would b a big step for australian basketball if he get drafted @ no.1, but for me itll b great for him to go no.1 but i dont want him goin no.1. I believe that the bucks are crap, bogut should not go to milwake they have no one there who can help bogut develop. who do they have D mason,TJ ford and redd(if he signs) they all got tallent but do they want to work together????

Guess not, if the bucks work arround bogut and the future of the francise they would be good but they want 2 base and work arround redd, he has not done nething for the franchise.

Would love to see him go @ 1 but i want to see him in Atlanta next year back in RED
