Well, while Bonner isn't a stealth defender, he is human compared to Bibby who happens to be a corpse. Usually humans play better defense than a corpse.

Mike Bibby actually made Gilbert Arenas look like an NBA player last night. Bonner is easily better.

Matt Bonner, easily. The guy is actually an average defender now when before he just completely sucked. He has improved alot...:tu

Matt Bonner is a great positional defender. He's very much underrated by Spurs fans.

Wow. Pretty rare that 99% of NBA forum trolls can agree on anything.

Bibby was absolutely destroyed by both the Magic and Spurs. He is a total liability. Bonner is by no means a great defender, but dude keeps his space and at least tries to crash the boards, however unsuccessfully.

Seriously? Wow, Bibby is a huge defensive liability. Bonner is a below average man on man defender but he plays good team defense in the system. Pop would not play him if he didn't.

Did you notice against the Cavs they tried the "give it to Bonner's man and clear out" strategy? And it didn't work and they went away from it? I think they got one bucket and one foul out of it in 6 or 7 tries.

Bumping in light of the "We hate Bonner" thread.

I'm not sure who bibby is but if he played any worse than bonner there is no way he plays in the NBA.

Bumped because it's funny to read the comments in hindsight.

Jesus fucking christ, are we talking about the same Matt Bonner who got ass raped by everyone on the Celtics tonight, even the towel boy? The same guy who back peddles all the way to the restricted area and watches a shorter guard lay the ball in? The same dude who's stuck in a time warp and looks like he's actually the poster child for autism out there? He is the blue puzzle piece.

Celtics Head Coach Doc Rivers

"When we see Bonner's red head out there, that means one thing for us. Green light. Doesn't matter who he's guarding. It could be KG, it could be Rondo, it could be Red Auerbach's ghost...we'll score on him very time. We love that guy. As the saying goes, Santa Claus is fine... but we'd rather see Bonner."

Celtics Point Guard Rajon Rondo

"We call him video game, cause when he's guarding you, you can do anything you want. Wait...that's off the record, right? You can't print that, man."

Celtics Forward Kevin Garnett

"Which would I rather see...Beyonce in a leopard-print thong in my hotel room, or Matt Bonner matched up against me? Hmm... With all due respect to Beyonce, I'll take the Red Rocket every day of the week and twice on Sunday."
