    That's what Bruce said today at a public event at Ashley's furniture on the NW side. He said it was disturbing that Brent chose to opt out of his contract.

    Also said that now that he's gone it allows the Spurs to grow.

    For everything, there is a season. A season for Brent Barry, a season for Robert Horry. And now a season for Hill, Gist and hopefully Tolliver...

    Wow. Well I said in the Summer League game thread it sounded like the Spurs got screwed over. The way RC worded it, it just seems like they wanted to keep Brent and maybe Robert, but both players have declined? Well obviously Brent declined by signing with the Rockets, but Rob may have done the same thing? Am i reading too much into it?

    horsecrap.......cause horry passed up so many shots it was sickening. i had never seen horry gunshy before this year......so i think it is time for him to retire. once a gunslinger is timid when drawing his pistol, it is time to move on to something else.

    Interesting way for Bowen to put it. I wish he had played his final years out in San Antonio. I'm going to miss the bas , but he is the enemy now and he must never taste victory at the Spurs expense again.

    The only thing I find distrubing is the fact that Bowen still looks like a re driving to the hoop!

    Are you 12? Spurs are always gracious about players when they go on to another team.

    Anyone with a brain can see the front office has chosen a youth movement for the supporting cast.

    Barry, Horry, probably Finley, all gone. Vaughn relegated to third string mentor.

    In with Gist, Ian, Hill, Mason.

    Barry was under contract. If he was under contract I'd say the Spurs were expecting him back. Then you've got Bruce's comments it seems Barry surprised them and left.

    Maybe Horry is doing the same thing and wants to play on and get more court time somewhere else. Do you know for a FACT what Horry is doing or if the Spurs planned to bring Horry back and he said no? No you don't, so I don't see how you could say I am completely wrong.

    Barry wasn't under contract. Damn, this isn't hard.

    Bowen's taken a couple of pay cuts so we could have more cap room to work with, he was surprised that Barry sacrificed playing with this franchise to go play for a scrub team in Houston, that's all.

    Horry is talking about retiring, and honestly, I love what he's done for us in the past but it was clear this post-season the game has passed him by. Same for Finley. And Barry's playing on one wheel.

    No, I don't know for a fact what Horry is doing, but that doesn't mean your sky is falling isn't stupid as , which it is. That's all I'm saying. Do you really think the Spurs are upset about not being able to bring back a 38 year old PF who went 0 for the WCF? ing use your brain for once.

    Uhh didn't he opt out of his contract just before free agency? Which means he was under contract.

    Bowen's taken a couple of pay cuts so we could have more cap room to work with, he was surprised that Barry sacrificed playing with this franchise to go play for a scrub team in Houston, that's all.
    What's Bruce's pay cuts got to do with anything? btw Thanks for doing that Bruce.

    Horry is talking about retiring, and honestly, I love what he's done for us in the past but it was clear this post-season the game has passed him by. Same for Finley. And Barry's playing on one wheel.
    You might be completely correct about Horry or you could be completely wrong about Horry. So I don't see why you think your opinion is any more valid then mine.

    No, I don't know for a fact what Horry is doing, but that doesn't mean your sky is falling isn't stupid as , which it is. That's all I'm saying. Do you really think the Spurs are upset about not being able to bring back a 38 year old PF who went 0 for the WCF? ing use your brain for once.
    I didn't say the sky is falling did I? I'm certainly not freaking out about it like you're saying I am lol. I was just looking at another angle and saying that maybe the Spurs' hand was forced a little bit regarding Brent and possibly Horry. If you don't think so fine. No need to get all y about it. .
