His numbers are pretty solid this year too. Yet another former Spur doing better elsewhere. I guess it makes sense. There are few opportunities to pad stats in Pop's system alongside the big three.

Gooden can't spread the floor
pops system fcks up so many players thats being underutilised....
Boner can.
Agree - as much as RJ is a huge tool, maybe he is also being under-utilized.
mm... interesting point
of course he is. hes a scorer and needs the ball in his hand to be effective. pretty sure RJ can still create his own shot but pop wont let him.
I vaguely remember Drew's first year or two with the Griz. I watched a few of their games and really thought he was going to do some damage as a solid big throughout his career. He has kind of faded out of the spotlight the past few years but seems to be revitalized recently. I never thought he would be a franchise player, but definitely seemed like a potential decent second or third option on most teams.
He's clearly talented and athletic even as he hits upwards of 30, but I'm not sure what the thought process paying RJ to play here. He has never quite fit in with his talents. He's become a really good corner 3 shooter, to his credit and adjusted his game, but it's like oil and water sometimes with pop's system. I like that he seems to be handling the criticism well, but you just wish the FO would have found a better fit in the first place. As bad a marriage as it has been, I don't think it compares to the Melo/Amare fiasco in NY.
I'll take Finley at the 4, thank you
I am so sick of the team since 06 or so man lol, since we are talking about Bonner and Finley at the 4. I miss the good old days of BIGS here.
i have a buddy in cleveland who saw him for a while there. he told me that on certain nights, he looks like a borderline all-star, and some other nights he completely disappears. exactly what happened here.
also, he plays horrendous defense. no thanks.
i guess u did not like the 07 championship team
in 07, Finley wasnt a PF, and Oberto did a good job
And I would take an inconsistent Gooden of ty Bonner anyday
WTF? Gooden is the RJ of PFs. No thanks.
So sad, people are so bored that they care what ex spurs players are doing. Like a old girlfriend that gave you the clap but you still hold a place in your heart for her. Sick man, just sick . Moving on......![]()
Gooden has failed on so many different teams. Sean said that if he did good against his former teams, he would always do good.
in other news, robert horry won last night's bingo ball at the local YMCA. robert says he can still be on a le team as a towel boy and plans to take towelling classes at a community college that meets on the left side of the bingo ball room at the Y. robert will donate 1/10 of his earnings to the michael finley power forward foundation, which assists underprivileged 6'5, 40 year olds into getting a PF spot on a d-league team to pursue their dreams of playing in the nba. horry also intends to donate the rest of his earnings to the shattered dreams foundation, which helps the aforementioned d-leaguers to put their lives together once they realize there is no way that is ever going to happen; the foundation would also send letters to these players, asking them kindly to put down the pipe.
Only thing worse defensively than a Blair/Bonner frontcourt would be a Blair/Gooden frontcourt.
Has Gooden played for all 30 teams yet?
How'd Ian, beno, hill, Novak, rmj, and Keith bogans do tonight?
hes been in beast mode whenever bogut has gone down and now jesus dude looks like wilt or some lol
hes also hit 2 two threes![]()
RJ needs touches to play his best. That's why his role with TJ Ford and the second unit was really helping him. Manu and Ford going down really hurts him because of the lack of playmaking.
You forgot Scola, Nazr and a few others![]()
Is there any news on when TJ will return?
