These nikkas been playing hella soft lately. Harrison Barnes is getting benched for no reason at all. Dude is the best rebounding wing on the squad.

TORONTO -- When the Warriors tip off Monday night, don't be surprised if a 7-foot-1 Australian is on the court.

Warriors starting center Andrew Bogut is aiming at coming back Monday night in Toronto. It will all depend on how he feels after pregame warmups. But multiple sources said Bogut is planning to give it ago.


At Monday's shootaround at the Air Canada Centre, Bogut was wearing his practice jersey on the blue side -- reserved for the starters. Plus there was a buzz about the center's probable return.

The Warriors are being quiet on the matter and coach Mark Jackson maintains his stance that Bogut will come back when he is ready. Bogut doesn't want to create a big to-do, one source said, and ramp up

Golden State Warriors' Andrew Bogut (12) lets out a roar after getting the foul while playing the Memphis Grizzlies in the first quarter of their game at Oracle Arena in Oakland, Calif. on Friday, Nov. 2, 2012. (Jose Carlos Fajardo/Staff) expectations. He and the Warriors have opted not discuss his recovery progress since news broke in late November that surgery on his left ankle in April included a microfracture procedure.

Bogut, who was acquired in March in the blockbuster trade that sent Monta Ellis to Milwaukee, has played four games this season. In his 73 minutes, he has totaled 24 points, 15 rebounds and four blocks. But, even though he was still hobbled by his recovering left ankle, he made it obvious he will impact the Warriors.

On Nov. 8, Bogut announced he was taking seven to 10 days off to work on strengthening his ankle because he didn't like being limited on the court. But that has turned into 70 days and 38 games missed.

Since not playing was


Bogut's call, his return is also his call. One source said the Warriors don't need to see how he looks because the barometer is how he feels and what he can do on the court. So even though he hasn't participated in a full practice, he is still cleared to jump into a game when he feels ready.

Bogut's return would be timely. The last two games, Golden State has given up 57 second-chance points. Teams with big frontcourts have made a habit out of exploiting the Warriors' small lineup.

Even if Bogut plays, expect Jackson to be conservative with his minutes. One of the reasons Bogut shelved himself initially was his irritation with the 20-minutes limit imposed on him. But Jackson has been cautious with injured players all season.

Yeah it's the smart thing. Cleveland don't have a dominant big anyway. Oh yeah, Toronto respects us.

And another 1. Career high for "The Brick". No Bogut, No Barnes, No Curry, No Landry and still got the win. Cleveland still respects us.
