Do I really have to pick?
Bonner or post-2007 le Finley?..which player and his playing time annoyed you more?..
Do I really have to pick?
Finley...at least Bonner doesn't start. Both sucked though...
Bonner, easy. I would take Finley over Bonner any day. At least he could still hit some clutch shots. Remember the final game of the 2008-09 regular season against the Hornets when he hit the big 3 to force OT? , at least the guy could hit game-winning or tying shots in the clutch, unlike Bonner....
at least Fin hit some clutch shots post 2007.....
and no Bonner nuthuggers, shots against the T-Wolves and the Warriors dont count as clutch....
Blegh . . .
Finley. As mentioned, he was at least somewhat clutch.
Bonner on the other hand is the anti-clutch.
Finley & Bonner
Both of these guys have brought Pop from being a great coach who won 4 les...so far...
to a lucky coach who was carried by Duncan to win 4 les---in spite of Pop's stupidity...
Bonner approaches Finely levels when he's used over more capable bigs or is played for 30 plus minutes, but Pop's infatuation with Finely was unreal. Finely definitely annoyed me more. I couldn't even be mad at the guy when he cut and ran to Boston.

What made Finley really bad was that he played small ball PF for stretches, kinda what Pop tried with RJ last season. You're just setting the guy up to fail, plus he was old as .
Bonner on the other hand is younger, taller, but just as bad... smh
Atleast Finley hit some shots in the playoffs in 06-07, some big ones too! BONNER? NONE, he is just dissapearing already and it's not April yet! HE IS JUST TRASH out there later in the year.
Finley annoyed me way more than Bonner. I was convinced Pop had lost his marbles when he played those bull lineups with PF Finley. Plus the way he played perimeter D against everyone the same...5 foot cushion, pray for help was LOL funny.
Pops fault, not his! Atleast like I said he hit some clutch shots to win games here, Bonner? FUKK NO! He is what he is and never will be anymore than he is now! FINLEY GOT OLD, Bonner is just utter trash all in all.
Hard to tell. Pop seemingly and unjustifiably trusted them both too much.
Both were annoying in their own way. Neither had the ability, fundamentals or desire to even compete defensively, both were mental midgets and both were given unwarranted carte blanche by the head coach. They both simply got on my nerves.
finley was damn clutch. bonner.. not so much.
Both annoyed me in different ways.
I didn't like Finley because he got more playing time than Bruce and Pop never seemed to bench him no matter how ty he was.
Bonner just has CHOKE written all over him.
I would probably have to say Bonner is worse simply because he has 3 more years left on his contract while Finley was only signed on for two more seasons.
Finley helped the team win a le. What exactly has Bonner done when it matters?
Finley got a record for threes for us in a playoff game, Bonner wil be lucky to make fukkin two in a game in the playoffs, if he does it's when it does not matter!
Harlem said post-2007 le Finley. Prior to that, Finley was decent. Post-2007 le Finley was horrible. Man I remember all those clanks he had against the Lakers in 08 and this team ended up bringing him back over Brent Barry and ultimately ended up choosing him over Bruce Bowen the following year.
Also I can't believe we use to have a starting 5 that had Matt Bonner, Michael Finley, and Roger Mason Jr.
