Generally speaking, I'm all for Bowen coming off the bench. No need to run him into the ground, in this starting lineup. Putting so much weight on his shoulders, that when he buckles so does the team... Just a shame we don't have any other starting-caliber SF's on our roster. When all that Maggette talk was going down, I thought we might have finally gotten a Bowen replacement, but oh well... I'd still like to see the Spurs go after Ryan Gomes. Maybe he'll become expendable, with the Celts' still having Al Jefferson and Gerald Green to hold on to.

As I said, Bowen's defense is still valuable to the team. It may not be at the level it's been in year's past, but I still think it's there as evidence by his recent games against Carter and the Nets, Ray Allen and the Sonics, etc.
But I think the real question when it comes to Bruce Bowen is this: At what point do his defensive contributions offset the burden he is on the offensive end? If he can't hit those open 3 pointers, Bruce Bowen really doesn't do much else offensively. He's not a good rebounder, I don't think he's much of a gambler on steals, he's not what I would call "an energizer" like Manu/Bonner, etc. His offense and lack of rebounding hurt even more now due to our lack of Center who can do neither as well. :(

Bowen is OLD, there is no way he keep playing D at the level we've grown accustom to.
I'd also like to submit this thread into evidence.
Who cares. He sacrificed money for the organization more than once so they'd have room for other free agents. Whatever money he gets from this contract is less than he deserves.Quote:

Bowen's kept himself in great shape and it's not like he started playing full NBA seasons at age 21. With Udoka coming on board it's likely that Bruce will see his minutes reduced during the regular season. Anyways, it's not like Bowen's guaranteed two full years beyond this season, if he were to really have a sudden decline in his game over the next year or so.
His salary - contributions to the team since he's been here ratio screams otherwise. Stupid ass comment.

oh well, 4 mil isn't that much in the great scheme of things, I probably shouldn't be bitching about it. :oops

Obviously the FO thought that he still has something to offer otherwise why would they extend him? And now we have Udoka to work with so we'll just have to wait and see what's up. Until I see a consistent lack of D coming from him, I'm still cool with him. Anyway if he starts to melt down then we could start Udoka and bring him off the bench. Not exactly what I would like but at least Udoka has shown last year to be a capable one-on-one defender.
Worst case scenario, we put him in the fridge right next to Horry until playoff time.
Amen!Quote:
