:bang
Let's see:
Bonner hasn't hit a shot since, I can't remember, 3 point shooting, What's that?, Defense-NEVER, and has a 1/4 inch vertical leap!, He stays in we're fucked!
Is Pop just mind fucking me? SIT HIS ASS OUT! :wow:nope

This is disgraceful to see such an unproductive player get so many minutes in crunch time.

The problem started when Carlisle and the Mavs decided that they won't leave our shooters open. They made that mistake early in the game and Fin, Mase and Bowen made a few and we got ourselves a decent lead. After that the Mavs just stayed home on the corners the rest of the way and challenged Duncan and TP to beat them inside. TP didn't have a great game and we didn't have too many answers on offense in the second half.
From that minute onwards, Bonner should have been nailed to the bench. I was shocked to see him in the second half, I have no idea what Pop was thinking. That's when they started scoring in the paint and shutting us out on the boards. I'd rather give those minutes to Gooden; playing alongside Duncan/Parker could help him get into some offensive rhythm than having to be the main offensive option in our bench lineup.
If you think a discard from the Raptors is going to be a starter on a championship team, this is what you get. He is a one-trick pony, you take away that trick and this is what happens.
Great post. It's very easy for opposing coaches to read and it is basically a one dimensional strategy. For instance, Dirk just mentioned on presser that since Bonner's out there they have to respect his three and that means Tim is the only big in the paint...etc.Quote:

Bonner has no exceptional to adequate skills outside of his three ball. He doesn't even have a mid-range game where he can FAKE A THREE to beat someone off the dribble and to pull up from 20. He can't pass. And sure as hell can't out rebound anyone as tall as him. He is so bad he can't even clean up in the paint like flat footed Oberto was able to do around Duncan, Parker and Manu when he would make garbage points off put-backs and tip in's. He isn't in the right places at the right time like a high IQ Horry and Oberto would be to receive passes or keep the offense flowing.
His regular season stats are inflated from having to outrebound the occasional midgets teams. Pop is just a crazy man with this Bonner-Duncan strategy.
Matt Bonner sucks:bang:bang:bang
If there is any Church of Bonner it just came up empty on the collection plate.
yeah, i'm sure he'll get one of those game this series.... but u know what, he's a fucking starter!!! he should be getting those kind of stat line on a consistent basis, and when you are starting you should never put a stat line of 0 pts and 1 reb (and he's defense was non-existant, you could see whenever bonner comes in the game, the opponent just attack that match up.Quote:

When Dampier got the ball on the post I thought to myself, Bonner will fuck this play and he'll get dunked on and he did even worst. He tryed the WORST flop all time. Even CP3 won't come close of that. It was PATHETIC.Quote:

6. 3 minutes left in 3rd, bowen, gooden, thomas come in. spurs fight back and tie it up, capped off with gooden dunk. gooden comes out and is sat.

8. 7 min left in game, spurs down. finally parker is put in. still no hill. no bowen. barea contiunes to score.

Ok, after tonight I officially belongs to this fan club. If he is not going to contribute in any way, bench the guy.
Bench his ass forever and trade his worthless hide in the off season!
I'm in. Heck, Bonner shouldn't be comin' off the bench!! He isn't even a bench player with the numbers he's having as a starter. I wish Gooden or Thomas would be a starter over Bonner!! I wish Bonner wasn't even on our team. I'm mean sure he had some good games... but he just disappears after. And all he does is foul, and he doesn't even rebound much!! Bonner sucks!!!!!!
Zosa is coming after all you guys, he's a Bonner lover and gives me shit when I post that Bonner is mentally weak and shouldn't be playing as many minutes as he is, unless he earns it by hitting his shots.
LMAO...:lmao
where i can sign ?
Rick Carlisle and his assistant coaches are going to get hernias laughing so hard when they watch the game tape and see Pop putting Bonner back in time and time again.
Zosa is without a doubt a member of the Bonner family. Probably a brother or cousin.Quote:

I mean this guy Really, Really Sucks! He should be in the D-League but, for some reason Pop continues to start his sorry ass.
Bump. 11 points and 7 rebounds on 3 of 4 from three-point range is a good start. :)Quote:
