If the Spurs try and trot out Udoka and Bowen at the same time their offense goes to shit. You pretty much have TP and Duncan trying to carry the entire offensive load, which won't happen against a good defensive team. The best bet for the Spurs is to let Parker guard Cp3 and see how it goes.

Bonzi Wells the player FORMERLY known as "spurs killer"

the guy is fatter, slower and older than he was 2 years ago. from what ive seen this year on the Hornets, he hasnt done anything of importance for the team. lets stop with this MISMATCH stuff. its not like hell make even 50% of his shots.

Name ONE player Mr. Bowen HASN'T contained.

Anyone? Anyone?

Bueller? Bueller?

Frye? Frye?

He will defintely frustrate him.

Remember when he got Bowen suspended because of his girly whining?

Bowen didn't even touch him, and he reacted like a little bitch.

Just imagine how he reacts if Bowen actually touches him......especially wth the intensity and emotions involved.

Can't wait to see that.

Seriously, the man's name has been made into a verb.


Bowened (bo-end)

1) To be completely shut down
2) To allow Bruce Bowen to get into your head, sit down on the couch, pop a cold one, and put his dirty feet all over your new coffee table.

dont underestimate Bonzi or Julian Wright ...both will be tough matchups and Bonzi ALways kills the spurs fat or not ...

I guess Horry will have Bonzi to the hospital

Whichever defense that's able to stop the other team from going into the paint will win.

Both teams make their living in the lane.

Udoka is our Bonzi negater.

Kori is correct. Ever since Peja came to the Hornets (and historically), Bruce Bowen has been assigned to stopping Peja. It is Peja's worst nightmare.

If West and Paul are hitting their outside shots every game, it will be difficult to beat the Hornets. In the game (the L) in San Antonio, the pick and pop run by David and Chris were deadly. It seemed like they hit every mid-range shot they put up. That's not to say that the Spurs won't devise a way to trap the ball but it's tough to trap when the Hornets lift everyone to the perimeter. It can be as difficult as defending Devin Harris and Dirk Nowitzki in the 2-man game 2 years ago. David West has as good a mid-range game as any NBA Big. Once you defend the FT line (extended), David can then take you down and impose his will inside as Amare does for the Suns.

It will be interesting to see what the Spurs do when those shots are falling.

i think Bruce will get his 3 pointer stroke back on this series... the suns aftewr being punished by it for 3 playoff's exit... didn;t give him a chance on that shot throughout the whole series...
