Props to Bonner
That dunk got him going
Nice game for Dice and Bogans too
Granted it was against the Raptors but it was good to see him actually attacking the rim once in a while as a big man should.
He still shouldnt be starting though.

Bonner isn't a bad player at all when he's being relied on for his offense..when he's coming off the bench, he's gonna be playing against lesser frontcourt players(he did match up against Bargs a little tonight though)..
McDyess keeps looking better as time goes by, so I'm hoping he'll eventually be the starter, and Bonner can be a very good spark off the bench..
Thank you, Matt. Now get your ass back on the bench!
A 6-10 C/PF grabbed 4 rebounds in 34 minutes?
I give him props because I think he hustled too. He also confirmed the theory that if he is hitting his shots, he can help this team.
Extra props because while he didn't space the floor for Duncan today, he spaced it for himself, including a fairly pretty dunk!
Tonight's game was the highlight of the season for him..
He will not, I repeat, he will NOT have another performance like he did tonight against the Crapters.
No, that's not necessarily correct. If he hits shots but it comes at the expense of poor defense, it is a detriment.
They were playing against the Raptors. The raptors suck
if he's hitting his shots he's not 100% useless and it's better than not hitting his shots
but if he doesnt box out, get rebounds, man up, block shots, set good screens then he shouldnt be starting PF/C and playing as much minutes as he's playing. scoring points is great, but not at the expense of being the biggest defensive liability on the team.
We want to beat LA/Celtics for the championship, not score a lot of points
IS it realy smart to be gaging players against Toronto's defence?
After saying that Props to him he did step it up.
As much as I hate bonner, it was nice to see him actually drive to the basket and hustle for rebounds something which we are not used to see him (or the rest of the spurs team lately) doing
Big ups man but please do the same thing coming off the bench
Well, if he plays like that from now on, it's on...
Yeah, he is getting better at doing the things a PF should be doing
His sole worth shouldnt be only measured by whether or not he hits his 3's
Does he do the things a PF should do? Is he getting better at it? Is he at least trying?
Well, if he plays like that from now on, it's on.
Like I said, it was the Raptors, irregardless of that he played tough on both ends (for Matt bonner anyways). I still dont want him starting but he gave no reason to hate on him tonight.
maybe Bonner's turned the corner?
he didn't ...... but good for you for being the bigger man and giving positive feedback when it's been earned
Sorry, I missed the first part of the game because of the FSN screwup with TWC. I thought he started. Still, he did well. Who started in his place?
He's got talent.. consistency is what he needs.
I dont understand your 2nd and 3rd line. Are you agreeing with me or no?
Sorry I was studying for a midterm and my brain is afk
It's a grinding 82 games season. When you're missing 2 of your top 3 guys and you can't work on setting up a rotation, etc and you have these games, he can help you.
Against certain teams that respect his shot, he can help.
I agree he won't against the top teams, but you don't play those every night.
This is the Bonner we need...maybe not 18ppg, but a Bonner that comes in off the bench for 15-20 minutes and makes a few plays from distance or off the dribble. Great job Matt. Way to step up tonight.
Liked his energy tonight, i agree that he should come off the bench though, he would play well as a energizer guy.
This was Bonner's good game of the year, don't expect another performance like this out of him till next season lol
Plus there was this....
Only Raptors D can make that happen... I can't find a better explanation for that play, I mean, you know your D sucks when Matt freaking Bonner is dunking on youPlus there was this....
