Bonner is killing the flow when he is on the floor. Dude needs to pick a spot to shoot from and stick to it. I don't want to see any more 15 footers from him. He has no form, he shoots it higher than the backboard. He's terrible.
I assume when Horry gets back, this dude will never get a legit minute again.
Thank you Pop for wasting 3 mill on this scrub.
I assume you think you're funny, getting people to argue with you. The routine's a little tired.
Bonner made more shots tonight than Horry normally does in the month of November. Horry needs to come back...by March.
Dont hate..masturbate! Bonner did great tonight. Id rather see him play more minutes in the reg season and slowly integrate Horry in the system come March.
Actually, I'd prefer to have Horry back as well. The Spurs have looked weak in the post the last two games. They need Horry's toughness.
3/4 3's is gay.
11 points 5 rebounds.
Yes quite horrible.
Go back to your hole and polish your bowling balls kiddo.
Either you're living in some alternate universe where you saw a different game than I did, or you're full of shit, or you're just trolling to get a response.
at least his outperformed finley
finley should just be traded or stay on the fuckn bench and allow udoka some minutes

Yeah cause hes never gonna contribute in the playoffs, average 16 a game in them, or set the Spurs playoff record for 3s in a game.
Gonna start calling you the argentinian sequ.
Give him time. He'll get better.
After watching Dallas tonight, Bonner doesn't have a chance in hell against a good team.
He gets stats, but keeps scrubs like Memphis and Portland in the game.
Tpark, you're a got damn pop homer quitter come backer, don't no shit about anything money given ticket holder that can't see anything objectively but the balloon popper game.

English not your first language?
or is it hard to type with the lollipop in your hand.
Sequ, your gaining on FastDunk... i place you above TlongII in the troll pecking order though
hi Bonner
You played well..Goto Sleep now...do not kill us.
:lmao @ Sequ. Bonner is the truth motherfucker.
Bonner was a +9 yesterday and a +3 today. It doesn't appear he is killing any flow when he's in there.
Bonner's defense has to get better or he'll be nothing more than a cheerleader for this year's playoffs as well. Personally, I think he'll improve a lot this season defensively once he gets in a rhythm of playing regular minutes.
Yeah, his defense is quite bad....Quote:

What I mean to say is that I doubt he'll continue to be the first big off the bench (Horry's usual spot) if the Spurs lose their strong interior defense when he comes in. In fact, I think if Elson were much better at defense he'd either be starting or be the first big off the bench...but he ain't that good either.
Maybe Splitter will be worthy of that "first big off the bench" role...but that's probably thinking too far ahead.
Remind me to ask you always first about basketball takes :lolQuote:

Yeah he hitted shots and got some rebounds. But his presence also provides many chances for opposing team to score. There are many players in the league who hustle too. Why him???
If Bonner continues to contribute at this level then Horry will be very well rested come March. It seems that Pop is giving him the minutes to prove what he can do. Admittedly his D isn't what I would want but if he keeps knocking down 3's then it would be hard for Pop to pull him. It's only the second game so there is time to continue to evaluate his play and how it impacts the Spurs.
you actually think Parker is the best PG in the league and Bonner is worse than the worst player in the league. Perhaps you should learn the meaning of the word P-E-R-S-P-E-C-T-I-V-E !Quote:

Bonner shouldn' take 15 footer
he should just stick to his 3's
but overall, he wasn't that bad...
HIs defense isn't good.
But you guys are making him sound like Steve Nash out there for god's sake...
i agree. plus, his high effort level makes up for a bit of his defensive shortcomings.Quote:

His rotations on D aren't where Pop would like them to be. I think the more playing time he gets, the better he'll get. His mid-range jumper is weak. We all know he is better at shooting beyond the arc. I like his toughness and fearlessness. Give him time Sequ.
2 games in and people hammering Bonner. Dam , give the guy a break. Like he said, he needs time to learn. His rotations will get better. I actually think he can fit in nicely. The first few months will just be his learning curve. I just hope will wont lose to much while he is learning.Quote:

If Bonner getting some minutes and getting him in-game situations to work on his sub-par defense means we have some close games, or even some losses, Pop will take that. Demanding we throw Horry about there for 20+ minutes two games into the season is ridiculous.
Tpark, with, the, Enlish, Smack, now, that's, funny.
2centsworth, just stay on the kiddy porch kiddo or you'll hurt your noggin with too much thinkin.
I rewatched the game this morning, and he played d last night on some tough matchups, especially Hakim Warrick, and then onto Pau Gasol.
He did pretty good last night given who he was matched up with.
Bonner is playing again like he did before the knee injury wich pretty much ended his season.
Everyone loves to forget how well he was playing last January I think it was, and that he was easily the best bigman on the roster.
alright youngster.Quote:

Sequ, you need to go up to the Corner Ice House and reach in that little styrofoam cup that says "Have a Clue, Give a Clue, Need a Clue, Get a Clue" and take you a handful.

ooooo owned by the "poster of the year" :toast
I think we sit Bonner all year , play the hell out of Horry, especially since he is not in shape, missed all of training camp, and get him hurt early.....either that, or play Bonner, let Horry find his own rhythm like he has the last 13 years or so, and then win a 5th championship. Sequ, I'm surprised you are a basketball fan with your knowledge, I bet you probably think you are watching women's soccer when the Spurs are on with your insight, DAMN your stupid.
People who think that Bonner could ever in any way, shape, or form come close to contributing what Horry did have no clue about Robert Horry. The 3's he hits are one of his least significant contributions.
O Rly Ploto? Elaborate.
