    So you're comfortable with Bonner getting playoff crunch-time minutes?
    Who said I would play him then?

    Too bad.
    Horry had a great career with the Spurs. I'll proudly continue to wear his jersey knowing that a great player such as himself played for the Spurs, and also brought them a championship playing a vital role in 2005.

    There are 11 other guys on the active roster.

    Take your pick.

    The Spurs play small half the time late anyway.

    YOU TELL ME! You're the one that thinks Bonner can step into Horry's role.

    I've been praying for it for the last five days, but it's kinda unlikely.

    I'm quite sure he can play Horry's regular season minutes. Horry didn't play in crunch time much of the season, so Bonner could play then even less. Any other big man or SF could do.

    Maybe, but my point has been that Horry's playoff minutes can never be replaced by Bonner's minutes. Horry looked old and hurt during last year's playoff run, but he did contribute. I'd be pleasantly surprised if Bonner was able to match that during next year's playoffs, but it isn't likely.

    Horry really didn't contribute in proportion to his legend.

    If we were stuck in thinking that we couldn't continue without one player not named Duncan, we should have given up the ghost after 2001.

    Time to move on.

    Horry also created a crucial turnover on a Steve Nash crossover (I said this in another thread, I'm redundant!), and gave D West the business. Bonner could accomplish neither!!!!!!!!!

    Oh yeah, you don't have one.

    That's the thing can Bonner is matched a totally ed up Robert Horry?

    Robert played some minutes against the Suns and also came up big against the Hornets in a couple of games especially game 7. Do we even get to the WCF with Bonner playing those same minutes last season instead of Horry? Or would we have gotten further with Bonner playing?

    Forget the shooting, Horry until last year played some very good defense. Bonner, apart from the fact that he's choked repeatedly as a shooter, absolutely sucks and is a significant liability on defense. If Bonner is a rotation player next year it'll be a sign the Spurs have failed at retooling most likely.

    For a little bit of perspective on what Horry gave us in the playoffs this year :

    http://www.82games.com/0708/playoffs/0708SAS.HTM

    See Horry's name down there at the bottom, with a -13.3 net production. The only playoff player with worse net production was Vaughn, who we are hopefully replacing as well... Not that I am saying Bonner was good in his 9 minutes of playoff action (talk about your small sample size!), but Horry was worse.

    In all honesty, we either hope for a breakout season from either Mahinmi or Gist (or another big brought in... Javtokas anyone?), or we hope for Thomas with a full training camp and season will be much more efficient in the offenser, with his mid-range jumper coming back.
