Pretty sure the Haislip signing means we've seen the last of Fab. Bruce, I hope so, but who knows.
Haipslip, McDycess, Blair, McClinton, & Mahimni. Five news. Great! But I'd rather have Bruce teaching Jefferson and Gist and Fab tutoring Blair and Haipslip than Finley and Bonner. Bruce especially deserves to finish his career here andFab is always good for 10 minutes of hustle and smarts.

Let it Go Friend, Let it go. Time to move on.![]()
We can't have it both ways. We're either moving forward or not.
I'm ok with leting the young guns free to prove themselves.
in any case, in midseason we can always sign Fab or Bowen right?
Bruce as a coach? yes, that would work.
Bruce teaching Jefferson? R.J.'s a grown ass man, he's no rook. What the could Gist offer in way of tutoring (he's not even guaranteed a spot on our roster, right)? He might as well be considered a freshman as well. No, my friend, we asked the FO to deliver some youth. They delivered (thankfully), let's not second guess the blessing. If we don't land any FA then, I s'pose we can revert. I agree that it's best, as a fan with emotional connection to their team, to just move on.

Is there a better defensive closer in the league than Bowen? I don't think so. The Spurs win with defense. Bruce still has plenty left in the tank. He exemplifies what it means to be a Spur, and can still play. We need him AFAIC.
We should see how Jefferson does before clamoring for Bruce's return. If he gets back to playing defense the way he used to in his early days with the Nets, along with the inevitable improvement of George Hill, we will be fine.
i love oberto, he plays with toughness even though hes often the least talented on the court. but i dont want him back... we need to get younger... his offensive deficiencies are too great at this point.
I want Bruce and KURT back!!!
R.J.'s gonna have to play D, or fear the wrath of. Of course I'd like to see Bruce back, if nothing else for that desperation time hard cover, I just don't know how reasonable it would be at this point. Goddamn Finley, if it weren't for him deciding to play through this year then perhaps...
I don't really mind seeing Oberto go, wouldn't mind seeing Bonner go either. Bowen is another story but I guess the Spurs FO is trying to find the new Bowen rather than trying to go for something that's not there any more... But Bowen is not really gone yet, let's see what happens on July 31.
If and when it turns into a nice trade you might change your tune. Or when he nails a 3-pointer yet again to bail the Spurs out in a tough playoffs game![]()
I'm not totally hating on him (and I don't discount how much he's meant to winning in the play-offs, albeit quietly), I'd just rather have his salary to play with rather than Old Dog Fin himself.
Get over it... both played their last days as Spurs...![]()
the end of the bench isn't for old washed up guys, what good does that do you? spots 11-15 or even 10-15 should be used to find out what you have in your young prospects.
i like fab but i say the only one who should be looked at to re-sign should be bowen!
i just want bruce back. I think everyone will agree, i rather have him ride the bench all season than have Vaugh do it..
I'd be ok with Bruce coming back and playing off the bench. But Jerky? Nah.
When the game is on the line and the ball is in the other teams possesion I want bruce in the game. He will be much fresher now in a spot role. Specific defensive assignments. And he can still hit the three
time for spurs to move on....
, I want Dennis Rodman and Avery Johnson back.![]()
