would u take walton over bonner?

[coachmac87]

i think i would....i love waltons basketball IQ...just dont kno what the spurs have in mind with thier bigs..if horry comes back pop has to cut back his mins during the regular season..(horry is a spot player )and let either bonner if they decide to resign or whoever(luke walton :clap ) play during the regular season and get comfortable..lets say the spurs sign walton...makes oberto less a need and could help the spurs address other areas...

[ducks]

bill walton over booner no

[johnpaulwall21]

Bill Walton >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> bonner

[ducks]

not at his age now

[Creation88]

hell no. i can't stand walton.

[SequSpur]

bonner is gone.

[HOEmada]

how dare you even bring up the idea of trading the most electrifying high flying NBA Superstar? Do you know how many chicks are gonna cry if the red rocket gets traded?

[makedamnsure]

awww noooo i am gonnna cry if Bonner leaves. He makes things fun to watch.

[Leetonidas]

I'd take Walton over Bonner in a heartbeat.

[L.I.T]

Bill Walton would be a great bench cheerleader.

[Leetonidas]

bill walton over booner no
LUKE Walton dude.

[ducks]

no shit I was being funny

[Leetonidas]

no shit I was being funny
Then you failed badly.

[Phil Hellmuth]

Walton is only good in a fast paced game, when it slows down he gets to be a useless player. trust me i watched every laker game this past season.

[ducks]

Then you failed badly.
can not win them all

[Behrooz24]

Bonner = mo gangsta

:hungry: :toast HELL YESSSSS!!!!!!!! :toast :hungry:

[Texas_Ranger]

yes.

[Borosai]

No way.

[El_Mago]

yes, walton is talented.

he has a high basketball IQ, passes extremely well, good hands, can score on the low post, and will hustle and play hard D.

he is spurs material.

[Nathan Explosion]

Do you know how many chicks are gonna cry if the red rocket gets traded?

I think you have Bonner confused with Beno. And if you don't, don't worry, Beno can pick up the slack.

[T Park]

I'd take Walton a million times over.

[Marcus Bryant]

What? Give away NBA Champion Matt Bonner?

[Marcus Bryant]

Anyways, Bonner was made to play for the Spurs. He could be a Spurs mainstay for a long time. I think he had a good first season. It takes a while for most players to adjust when they join the Spurs, including vets. With his range, size, attitude, and hustle, he makes an ideal reserve Spurs big.

[T Park]

only problem is, he might play defense worse than Brent barry.

Wich i didn't think was humanly possible.

[Marcus Bryant]

Yet he plays better D than Francisco Elson. He's won on every level. His motor doesn't stop and the mistakes he makes are more likely to be errors of commission that come from playing hard rather than errors of omission.

[bigfish22]

We're all about that extra pass, and this kid can pass! His basketball IQ is extremely high for his age and the amount of PT he has seen. He makes good decisions and only takes smart shots. I can't say for certain, but he comes off as a very unselfish player. If he could play an ounce of defense, then this would be the pickup that everyone will be talking about by the All Star break.

[timvp]

Given the contracts that both will be offered this summer, Bonner is the better fit. Walton is like the anti-Bruce Bowen in pretty much every sense possible. He'd be a horrible fit as small forward of the future.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Bonner is Horry's replacement at shooting PF, not SF, so do you see him as Bruce's understudy? I don't.

Also agree that Walton is a far better open court than half-court player - Hellmuth nailed that.

I like Luke, and he's a Spurs kinda guy, but he doesn't fit what we need right now - a superathletic defensive SF... that is, unless you wanna play him at backup point? :lmao

[ChumpDumper]

Bonner's a keeper for now. Not many PFs that can hit the longball available.

[SpursWillOwn]

Luke walton is 28 now not really THAT young

[Gros Membres!]

yes, walton is talented.

he has a high basketball IQ, passes extremely well, good hands, can score on the low post, and will hustle and play hard D.

he is spurs material.
Absolutely. I'd like to see the Spurs go after him. He's got the length (6'8"), the IQ and hustle. Granted, the D needs to be worked on but I think he's got the drive and determination to get it done. If we lose Barry, Finley, or even Bonner I think he would be a great add and could really flourish in our system as a SF.

:lmao

it's official. I <3 the Red Rocket.
If his "raising the roof" and beatboxing on the Riverwalk didn't already make him dorktastic enough for this team...well then this clip seals the deal. :lol
He bought a new car - a Pontiac Grand Prix.
Because it had leg room and good gas milage. Oh - and he bought it in New Hampshire so he wouldn't have to pay sales tax.

this was so useful in our playoff run :rolleyes

Beno is a keeper for now. Not many PGs carry a purse. :p:

wicked awesome! :lol

[ChumpDumper]

this was so useful in our playoff run :rolleyesRobert Horry hit 35% from the arc in the playoffs. Would you care to restate that?

[MoSpur]

I think Bonner fits the Spurs needs better than Walton. Walton is probably more athletic, but I think Bonner fits better. Bonner seems as though he was made to play for the Spurs.

[smeagol]

What kind of stupid question is that?

Of course.

[Avitus1]

Not at all. Leave Walton in LA.

[ploto]

Spurs could have had Luke Walton when they traded their pick in 2003.

[41times]

I'd take a boner over Walton any time :p:

[EVAY]

No. Can't stand Walton. Bonner will be fine...just give him another season. He is very energetic, rebounds when no one else seems willing to (even Timmy), and will get his shot back. All the "pure" shooters arrive in San Antonio with a terrific shot, lose it about ten games into their career here, and don't get it back until sometime after the halfway mark of the season AFTER they arrive. Think about Kerr, Finley, Ferry, Horry. It just seems that our offense requires them to think too much, and great shooters need rhythm more than thought. It finally comes back, though. Bonner will be fine. Walton's ego would never let him fit in around here.

[Spurs Dynasty 21]

Luke Walton?



any fucking day, he's actually a good role player

[Borosai]

Those videos of Bonner are hilarious.

On the court, he may not be a super-stud, but he is versatile. He can rough it up down low for rebounds (ask Garnett), get in a good subtle cheap shot on screens (ask Deron), and he can step outside for the 3. He's not a skinny puss either... he brings the meat (don't think dirty). Plus, he's fucking hilarious... that's so important on this team.

[SpursFanFirst]

I love Bonner, and I think he's going to do well with the Spurs given some time.
He gives everything he's got every time he's on the court...How can you not love having someone like that on this team?
They just need to find the right spot for him.
No Walton.
