SH Blog: Bogut rips teammates for “horse bleep” defense, KG has cryptic message about his future

Leave a comment

The Golden State Warriors are generally recognized as a very nice, non-confrontational type of group, led by their coach and pastor Mark Jackson, who will never use a curse word to get his point across.

Apparently, that attitude does not fly with center Andrew Bogut, who went on a rant about the lack of defense played by his teammates after suffering another embarrassing defeat to the Houston Rockets on Tuesday night at home. Here’s what he had to say, from Marcus Thompson of Bay Area News Group:

Which player is the most consistent winner for his own team in NBA history?

That is the question I asked myself a couple of years ago, in February 2007 to be precise. In an effort to find an answer, I decided to rank all NBA “franchise players” since the 1979-80 season.

Kobe Bryant, aging and all, is somehow defying all odds this season on the offensive end.

Despite playing in a league featuring dominant scorers like Kevin Durant and LeBron James, it has been the 34-year-old guard who has led the league in scoring with 28 points on 49 percent shooting – by far the best shooting percentage of his career.

Logic says your scoring is supposed to diminish in the latter stages of your career, but Bryant’s scoring has actually gone up for the second consecutive season.

Here’s something less surprising: he officially became the youngest player ever to reach 30,000 points on Wednesday in a contest against the New Orleans Pelicans Hornets, joining Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Karl Malone, Michael Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain as the only players in the history of the league to reach the milestone.
