Question about Elson

[Spurs Brazil]

I'm only listened to the game so who saw it can say better

Did Elson play so bad to only get 12 minutes?

I'm starting to think that Bonner is our best option next to TD

[v2freak]

I'm inclined to agree with you. No one's rebounding well, so you might as well add a fourth shooter to the line up.

I wouldn't mind Bonner starting at PF with Tim at Center. Elson really is pretty useless.

Again tonight, he tried when he was in there, but he really isnt' good enough to do much.

elson got poked in the eye pretty badly at the beginning of the game and was writhing in the floor. it didnt LOOK bad, but you never know when it comes to eyeball injuries, lol

[timvp]

Take out Elson's fluke 18 rebound game and he's rebounding less and less as the months go on this season. If he's not going to at least rebound, it's tough to play him.

And that's horrible news because it gives Pop more of an excuse to go to small ball.

:pctoss

That make me cry

Olowokandi 8pts 5rebs in 22 minutes
Oberto + Elson = 6pts 7rebs in 29 minutes

I don't understand what's happening....
Elson should be getting better and better, but seems he shares in the overconfidence issue like the rest?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Elson has the body, in theory, to keep us from going small. But like other posters have said on here, we need to transfer Oberto's brain into Elson's body.

How come that always happens? We have a tandem of centers, who somehow complement each other through their inferiority.

Elson's not Tim Duncan or David Robinson, this pisses Pop off....so he decides to get revenge by losing games with Finley playing C.

Ha-ha!! You are so right. What a perfect way to state it. :)
