Ratliff isn't going to play until Bynum gets injured, which is inevitable..it's strictly an insurance signing, he's an upgrade over Mbenga though..he's still a good shot blocker, but an average overall defender at this point..
Lakers get another 7ft defensive vet for the minimum. Gasol, Bynum, Odom, Ratliff, Artest, Barnes - what a front line. Shaq, please come to the Spurs for the LLE.
Barnes - 2 years, 3.6mil

I thought we were saving him for the playoffs... oh well...
He doesn't seem fresh to you?
I forgot shot blockers are overrated. Never mind me.
Bonner will be our leading scorer this year. Relax. And mason will be resigned at 8-9 mill per over 3yrs. Book it. The fo will once again make it rain.
Yup... y'know I really regret not having a 37 yr old big with creaky-ass knees who couldn't beat Bonner out of the rotation. It's a robbed kind of feeling. Robbed, I say.
Well, a 20 year old monster rebounder with no ACLs couldn't beat Bonner out of the rotation either. Bonner is just that good.
Seriously? You're comparing a guy who actually played minutes to a guy who racked up more time in his short time in Charolette than he did the whole time he was a Spur? No mames, carnal.
I blame the Spurs' coach for that. His mentor, Larry Brown, didn't seem to have that problem. Ratliff and his creaky knees performed fine for the Bobcats, and now the Lakers are building a bench on the cheap while we re-sign "limo players" like Bonner.
No, I merely pointed out that age doesn't seem to be a factor when it comes to beating Bonner out of the rotation.
All due respect to the guy, but Larry Brown takes what he can get at this point. He didn't decide to hang on to Theo, though.
Hmmm.
Please... what did Larry Brown or Phil Jackson have ever done in the NBA?
Phil Jackson probably wants him to trade him for cash to whoever team Larry Brown is coaching in February.
Larry Brown - 1 le
Record against Pop in the Finals - 0-1
You don't honestly believe he's a better coach than Pop.
No, I think Pop is better.
But I also think Larry is deserving of the Hall of Fame.
I bet if we had a guy like Ratliff, he would surely find a spot in the rotation.
We don't need Ratliff... we have Splitter!
You were the one that acted like being behind Bonner automatically means you suck. If that's the case, you just put Blair in the same boat.
So Coach Brown and PJ have never signed duds to fill a roster? PJ signed Kwame AND Samaki. Brown signed Dwayne "The Schnitz" Schnitzius and Uwe.
Infallible!
Kwame brought Gasol to the Lakers... that's why Phil always has the last laugh...So Coach Brown and PJ have never signed duds to fill a roster? PJ signed Kwame AND Samaki. Brown signed Dwayne "The Schnitz" Schnitzius and Uwe.

I think you got me mixed up with somebody else. I don't really have a problem with Bonner, I was just ing with people who think Theo is the missing piece because they seem to be the same people who diss on the Red Menace.
And for the record, I know I'm coming off like a prick and I apologize... just unwinding after work. Too much unalloyed truthin'.

Your an optimist, aren't you, Nono?
We're all on the same boat, so no need to apologize.
My Jeep just decided to jettison the muffler in the middle of I-195 and I've just spent 3 hours in Meineke. True story.
See, if you're the Lakers you start salivating at the prospect of trading Ratliff for CP3. We, lowly Spurs, know we're going to live through Bonner's 4 year reign of terror.
