Bowen Calling out Roger Mason?

[hater]

what these silly spursfans need to understand is Mason is not like a regular NBA tweeter. He calmly and cooly thought of what to write, probably slept on it for a night or 2. He did not blurb it out like most of the dumbass NBA players.

After careful consideration, how is that whining?

Bowen comes on every week on the morning radio show from 7-9 on 760

Talks about the Spurs glowingly and still caresa whole crap load.

You don't suppose he cares enough to come back and take Bogan's starting spot for the vet min? He'd be such an upgrade ... if we could get Pop just get over himself...

Was this Finley, in retrospect?

I don't think so. The timing is not right and "agents playing bad cop" line doesn't make any sense in the Finley situation. Bruce won't admit it, but I think it was meant for Mason.

Bogans is cheap. You got that one right.

Just don't forget that Bogans has had the luxury of having regular minutes and a defined set starting role for most of the year, where Roger's role and minutes have been inconsistent. I would be willing to bet if Pop would have stuck him in the starting lineup instead of Bogans and given him consistent minutes his 3pt% would be at or near last year's mark, and maybe even better.

And quite frankly I don't think Bogan's defense has been better than Rogers' this year. He's a good tough defender against physical players, I'll give him that, but he sucks against the finesse/long types, whereas Roger excels.

All in all, they both have their positives and negatives but the offense flows much smoother when Mason in on the court, and the difference in defense is negligible.

Well said. But you were being kind to Bogans. I won't be. He is crap. This guy is not a quality NBA player. He is self check and he hurts the Spurs, not help them. Malik is better at defense than he is, and Mason is better offensively.

Every second Bogans plays ahead of Mason is a crime. And when they need a stop, and need to sub defense for offense, instead of Bogans they should use Malik.

Bogans and Bonner should never leave the bench unless its garbage time.

We are not paying Mason millions to watch.
