Mozgov is having a better series than Bogut, but I disagree.
Bogut is a better shot blocker and a slightly better rim protector. Bogut can command and anchor a defense better than Mozgoc, as evident with the Warriors and his Milwaukee days. Also, Bogut can score, have we forgotten that he has averaged a double double in Milwaukee when he was a legitimate scoring option, while leading that team to a top 10 defense in the league? He's miles ahead more skilled than Mozgov, with better vision and better ball handling (not that he dribbles the ball a lot),.he's a better post player too (not that he posts a ton anymore, but when you give Bogut the ball down low, he's got a variety of moves and can use either hand).
Mozgov hasn't been good until he got to team with LeBron, who makes everybody good.
This just isn't accurate. Aside from his shooting percentage, his rates are all basically the same or lower in Cleveland.
A jump to 117 Offensive Rating in Cleveland from 108 in Denver. A 3.9 jump in Win Share compare to 1.8 in Denver. Averagin more blocks and points per 36 in Cleveland than in Denver (granted there's an uptick in usage), among other better numbers. He's better in Cleveland than in anywhere else, because he's involved in a lot more plays than he did in other teams. And you mentioned the shooting percentages, part of that is he's getting a ton of easy looks, mostly from a LeBron pass from cuts or pick and rolls.
Mosgov is a decent Center in New York and in Denver. You would not think he's worth 2 first round picks. In Cleveland, he seems to be worth all those. Surely, some part of that is LeBron just getting teammates involved.
