heres a snippet:
Jonathan Givony: So does this whole “great white stiff” theory, does that give you any extra motivation to prove people wrong?

Andrew Bogut: Not really, because there’s been the great black stiff too. There’s been Kwame Browns and there have been Michael Olowokandis too. Everyone forgets about those guys, but they went #1 in the draft too. That’s just the thing in America, the big white guy isn’t supposed to be as good as the big black guy. That’s something I can’t control, and I’m just going to work hard. There have been a lot of white guys who went late in the draft and turned out to be allstars. Nowitzki, Manu Ginobili, Stojakovic and so on. I really don’t have a worry in the world. I know I can play, and I don’t care what the color of my skin is.

OMG LOL!

Doesn't this guy knows how to keep his mouth shut or at least say hia opinion without mentioning names? If im Brown or Olowakandi, I would look forward to play against him soo much just to kick his ***! These are guys he will be playing against. He may be right, but its amazing the way he sais it.

I get angry reading this, b/c if the Knicks only played their cards right, they could have been in Milwaukees position and had that #1 pick, and we would have been table to take Bogut. He seems to have a nice head on his shoulders as well. It was a good interview to read.

He singled out Kobe too. He sounds like an idiot. I could never picture a player I respect like Ewing, Duncan, David Robinson saying those things. I'd still take him any day (maybe not #1, though, based on what I know about the players)

We don't know that they would have won the lottery if they had finished with the 6th best record. The Bucks' "ping pong" ball that was selected first could have been one of the balls that they would have had anyway if they had finished with a worse record.
