I'm shocked, ploto thinking a white guy played well. :wowQuote:

We got Vaughn, Oberto, Bonner and White...
and Beno ready with the magnets.
Sorry, I'm not an insider at all with the Spurs.Quote:

Damn, I forgot to log out of my ploto nick.
Didnt see much of Bonner but he did play good before the injury. A good option on the bench and he is pretty young too. Hope he came cheap.
The secret is out...Quote:

Good stuff. I like his hustle, and he's about as close as we're going to get to replacing Horry's skillset (although certainly not his legendary clutchness and intangibles). The kid has potential, glad he's staying, and hopefully he's learning some Horry-tricks along the way...
When we see Bonner hip-check Devin Harris into the scorer's table, we'll know that Rob's work is done.
Howabout a game winning three from the top of the key by Bonner in game 7 of the WCF in Dallas next year?Quote:

Bonner does represent something that Pop needed several times this past season. A Big who can actually score when the well has gone dry, while helping at the other end with decent team defense and rebounding.
Example: A night in March @ Sacramento. Corliss Williamson was abusing Robert Horry and Fab like a banshee in the post. The Spurs missed shots left and right and Pop needed a tourniquet to stop the bleeding. In came Bonner with a little offense and some excellent defense to help stem the tide until Manu re-engaged and Tony hit a circus shot to pull out a tough win.
Bonner hustles his rear-end off and is sometimes just what the team needs to snap out of funks.

Spurs will re-sign Bonner

Three days into the NBA's free-agency period, the Spurs have accomplished their goal of keeping their roster virtually intact.
The Spurs reached agreement Tuesday with forward Matt Bonner, the last of the three free agents they hoped to re-sign, on a three-year contract worth about $9 million.
"Matt always wanted to stay with the Spurs, so he's very excited to be coming back," said Kenny Grant, Bonner's agent.
The Spurs also have reached agreements with center Fabricio Oberto (three years, $10.5 million) and Jacque Vaughn (two years, $2.5 million). Free agents can't sign contracts until July 11.
The agreements mean the Spurs will have 14 of the 15 members from last season's team under contract. Free-agent forward Melvin Ely is expected to sign with another team.
