Lost in the frenzy of a whole bunch of players doing really good is all the players who are kind of sucking so far this year. Like Bojan Bogdanovic. Admit it: you forgot that the better Bogdanovic was even on the Pacers. Don’t lie to me. I know when you saw this vid you were like “man the Wizards have some weird-ass alt unis this year”.
The above paragraph doesn’t apply if you are watching this video and are currently residing on the European subcontinent. I know you guys have different ideas about what constitutes a notable NBA player, namely that they be from Europe. You’re probably well aware that Bogdanovic hasn’t been doing so good, and you’re probably mad about it.
Anyway, the first step to getting your season back on track is to have a game where you hit a bunch of shots without shooting any free throws. Bogdanovic was acutely aware of that fact, and purposely hit his jumpshots instead of missing them in order to achieve this. The refs were also aware, as they purposely avoided calling a foul when he got hit shooting a layup. A nice team effort all around.
