Yes, this thread was badly needed. Also, I wouldn't mind seeing an official Pop complaint thread.
I am not a huge fan of RJ, those two misses from FT tonight were huge IMO! I hate Bonner though, every year we see him so so early on and hit some threes, later on some idiots support him and say he is this and that, but he is nothing! He is this and what we see, he is garbage period end of story. Prove me wrong? I don't want to hear it I see it and know he is trash.
Why regulate the bonner/dick hate? Its well justified.
Don't forget Richard was playing for a contract last season... he got paid now... crofl
TBH neal cost us this game more than anyone else. completely ruined our offensive flow and has the biggest negative +/- on the team with a -16. He turned GH3 into the unaggressive player we've seen all year.
Everyone got scared last 5 minutes, even hill, only neal wanted to take shots.
Neal missed shots, but at least he had the balls to take em... Hill just stopped going to the rack... tbh, I think he was gassed a bit... back2back games with heavy minutes for him...
no problem with Hill being gassed at the end and with Batum on him.
Neal went into chucker mode but they were wide open shots that he couldnt really pass up.
he gets a pass because he actually made some shots at the start of the 4th and competed on the boards with his clearouts.
Neal took some questionable shots... But in a game where we were missing 4 key players I don't mind him shooting so much. I'm glad hes confident and willing to take the shots, he missed them tonight but we need him to carry that confidence into the playoffs. I also cant get too mad at Hill, because without him the last two games wouldn't have even been close.
I posted this in Sequ's thread earlier, I'll copy it to the offical complaints thread... Regarding Bonner and Jefferson returning in the 4th:
"Is Blair in Pop's doghouse? I know he still plays like a rookie a lot of the time, but at least he is active on D and rebounds like a beast. Opposed to Bonner who was not shooting tonight and has no effect on any other aspect of the game. I feel bad for Matt because he does seem to try hard, but his 2ft 3in wing span and no athletic ability make it IMPOSSIBLE to guard NBA quality big men. As for Dick Jefferson, what to say? He has played like garbage for the last 2 months. 4 points and 5 fouls for the game while Green is hustling and Anderson is looking confident in his shot. WHY. WHY WHY WHY WHY put RJ back into the game?!
I have never been this frustrated with the Spurs (past 4 games) in the regular season. /rant"
The Spurs lost all energy when they lost the lead. That's the difference between stars and role players, or experience/titles and the lack thereof.
Yeah Bonner tries but he is just not good at all! No skills at all sides the wide open three earlier in the year, he just does not HAVE IT, not IT at all! NO IT IN HIS GAME and he is not a big mins dude! He is that red head dude on Boston Brian SCALAB whatever his name is, nothing more or less and needs little mins if any at times.
Jefferson fucking sucks! He sucks so fucking hard, luke walton has an orgasm every time the spurs play!
Well if your rooting for bonner and rf than that makes you a true spurs fan....people need to calm down its not the end of the world....I root for everyone on the spurs...
I support those guys because they wear silver and black. It is that simple. I would rather cheer for them to have a good game, than to completely write them off. I support the TEAM. I mean after all, the Spurs are still #1 in the NBA at the moment, and they are members of the team that see minutes. Perhaps they are doing something right? It takes a TEAM to win, not individuals. How else do you explain how the Spurs have done so well?
Parker/Ginobili need screens from Bonner. Duncan needs Bonner to keep the defense honest and avoid doubles by two bigs. The whole team needs RJ in the corners to prevent the trapping of the guards.
In short, regardless of how much you may dislike the players that play for the Spurs, they are still part of the best team in the NBA even when they don't play like it.
o.....but bonner keeps every player honest
How many assists have Manu and Parker had to Bonner this season based upon what I had said? How many offensive rebounds have the Spurs had because Bonner has a big playing outside of the paint?
Just sayin'.
There is a whole lot more to basketball than most seem to realize. I am not saying that he is the ONLY reason why the Spurs win, or he is the best thing since sliced bread. There are other ways to win, sure, but to say that he isn't worth a damn is completely ridiculous.
