View Full Version : Here's what the Spurs need for their 15th man...
An enforcer. The team is too soft.
Give me someone like MWP who won't be afraid to throw elbows or do what Bowen used to do - tripping jumpshooters.
Especially since LA and OKC are an injury away from flaming out... seems karma has yet to hit Clay Bennett's squad.

Metta World Peace wouldn't hurt us, but his pal SJax offers some of the same toughness.

I'd take Ben Wallace for that role.
I would have loved to have had Tony Massenburg on the team longer. I thought he was awesome in that role for the Spurs. I recall games we were up 20 plus and he'd come out and still lay the wood on people. I think Tim even had to go up to him a few times and tell him to settle down when he was still playing too physical with big leads ;). That's my kind of player.

Captain Jack's a good boy under Pop, tbh...

Didn't the Spurs have Mark Bryant for that purpose at one point? I forget the year.
I remember seeing Massenburg bouncing a pass off his defender's back while inbounding the ball on his own baseline, then making a layup. Was he a member of the Kings when he did that, or was it while he was a Spur and playing against the Kings?

Ben Wallace fits the bill as an enforcer. He's nearly 40. Still has huge muscles and is quite speedy, and can still rebound, block and steal. I wouldn't mind him on the team for a few minutes a game. A bit of 'nasty'. And Ben Wallace & Stephen Jackson can reunite as old pals from the 'Malace at the Palace' lmao
