LOL Who else were they going to throw out there that can cover anyone? No one said he can't play any defense. Why do you think Bogans is out there? Bogans, if nothing else, is a tough vet that can defend a little bit and hit an open shot every tenth game.

Okay, what is the difference between Delonte West and Keith Bogans really? Bogans may "start" but he only averaged 18 minutes a game during the regular season which is about what Delonte averages. All stats are about the same as well.

So...my original statement was correct. If you are calling out bogans, Delonte is right there. They are both equally terrible.

At some point I would think the fact that Delonte West keeps finding himself on the floor in crunch time in playoff games for top teams despite the fact he is an injury prone, bi-polar, gun toting, milf loving psycho should tell you that NBA GM's think he is pretty good.

Of course comparing a guy who started 82 games with a guy who was injured most of the year and only played 450 minutes and saying their stats were the same kinda makes one wonder if you are drinking or channeling Dr Roman's numbers into basketball form

A serious contender though he did only start 45 regular season games

[Cannon Shell]

Bogans in the regular season
started all 82 games
he averaged 4.4 points per game
he made 21 FT's the entire season (65%)
he averaged less than 2 rebounds a game
he had 9 blocked shots
he made 38 steals
he made 91 3 point shots
he shot 40%
he averaged 1.2 assists
he only played an average of 17.8 minutes per game which is the least amount of minutes he has averaged in his entire career save 2006-07 when he averaged 16.8. This despite never having started more than 49 games in a single season.

82 games
4.4 ppg
1.8 rebs
1.2 assists
40% fg
38% 3pt
65% FT


Has any starting NBA player on a good team (or maybe any team) ever had a season like this?
