I'm not buying into Bogs' resurrection from the dead just yet. It takes more than a handful of games. I'd rather look at his entire body of work to make any judgments about his future with the Kings. I've got to at least see half a season where he fairly consistently looks good. Sure, I'm all for him playing well in these last few, but I don't draw any conclusions from it.
There is something that Kayte said last night in the postgame. She said that Bogs has learned to adapt his game to the uptempo Kings and that's why she's seen his game improve over the last few. I totally disagree. I think she's got it completely backwards. The last few games the Kings have not played uptempo. The Kings certainly did not win against the Spurs because of pace. The Kings game has slowed demonstrable coming down the end of this season. If tempo is one ingredient in Bogs' success or lack thereof, then in this case the Kings game has adapted itself to Bogs' game rather than vice versa. Why has the Kings' tempo decreased? Fatigue? Coach's decision? Joerger did say he was going to try some different things. Regardless, if the slower tempo Kings has upped the asset value of Bogs, I'm all for it coming down the stretch.
