Out in front...where Bruce should be.

Had a great night on the Tango.
Don't own a tilt a whirl.
Tango rode 3 thousand 114 people. Thats about ohhh 12 grand.
So yeah, great night. Way up from the last year on the same day, Spurs win.
good times
Lets just put this on this page as well.BTW, by the time the first quarter ended, VC had 2 points and 4 TOs. Bruce Bowen had 3 points. Vinsanity scored 8 points while Bruce Bowen was on the floor tonight
But yeah, according to twohandjam and all the others our perimiter defense stinks.
the nets blow.. wgaf.. spurs fans prem.. ej.. all over themselves beating lottery teams.. typical
So Vince Carter ain't that great anymore?
Another interesting development....
Have fun! I wish I was at the beach today.
You are overrated.
By whom? Himself?You are overrated.
Got damn.. 12K in one night? .. that's a good biz. I saw that mofo at the rodeo and it was basically full all night... I thought you owned the tiltawhirl also?
Man.. Corpus Christ Padre Island beaches have to much seaweed on them.
OK, I agree he'll probably be replaced in the starting lineup next year, but what would you suggest the Spurs do this season about Bowen? Even though his 3pt % is down right now, he is still a threat to other teams. Defensively, he's slowed down no doubt about that, but he is still better than alot of players in this league. You can't find too many players that would deticate themselves defensively and try to improve every year. Too many of them are trying to slamdunk their way to the ESPN Highlight Show.
Right now the most glaring problem that the Spurs face is staying within their game. In other words use their size and ram it down the Mavs and Suns throats!! NO MORE SMALL BALL !!!!!!
Isn't this like your second vacation in a month? WTF?
Yeah, two weekends ago, we were skiing in Ruidoso, now we went to the beach...Pretty sweet.. but...
Tomorrow is work.. again!!! Got Damnit.

The Spurs need rebounding and if he could get his ass in gear and get 2 more a game, that would help out. Also, if he would limit his shots to wide open corner 3s, he might bring up his average.
Seeing Bruce getting 7+ attempts a game is a nightmare.
I go to New Orleans on Wednesday for the NCAA Tournament. I may taste some alcohol while I'm down there.
You didn't give it up for lent? BTW, alcohol is bad for your kidneys.. you should know that...
Yeah, I admit I don't like Bowen taking it to the hole. His strength is the corner 3.
This is 2007. I don't think we can cut and paste those 3s into the box score of any playoff games this year.how many 3 pointers Bruce Bowen made game 2 West Semi-Finals Spurs vs Lakers in 2003?
On the other hand, how many other opposing coaches and their staff are ??"wondering"?? wtf is Pop and his staff "up to".
Bowen's defense was never what's in question. I think this season it's the other stuff that he's clearly regressed in that's really hurting the team. His lack of rebounding and scoring could be hidden, but this season when we need it the most it's really lacking. Combined with out lack of Center option (according to Pop), it's putting way too much pressure on Parker, Duncan, and Ginobili.
I think Bowen may be near the tail-end here. His defense is still pretty good, but I don't know how much longer he can continue to be a starter...
bowen MUSN'T SHOOT ANYMORE .
he sucks he sucks he sucks .
Plus he is stupid as his BB IQ is near 0.
He just have to admit that his just a dog who guard like a .

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.
That's the problem. Bowen would be rendered COMPLETELY useless if he were brought off the bench. Right now the only reason he's starting is so he can guard the opposing team's best offensive player. If he comes off the bench, he'd be guarding mostly the opposing players best bench players.
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.
YOU SUCK
