Bruce Bowen jersey retirement ceremony thread

Great ceremony. Very well deserved. Bruce was to perimeter defense what Kobe was to Jordan/Kobe were to perimeter offense.

Man I'm not sure what I'm going to do when Tim goes through his retirement ceremony, because I'm getting all emotional just from this.

They should do Tim Tony and Manus on the same night. Imagine that .

Yeah , nevermind they all deserve to have their own night but that would be pretty epic.

Duncan needs to get another fro going before he retires

. Makes him look younger.

Timmy's HOF speech will go something like this:

"Thanks!"

Didnt he do that during the 03' championship celebration at the Alamdome? They gave him the mic, he said something along the lines of thanks for the support we couldnt have done it without you, threw up a peace sign, and handed the mic to the next person. I think it was the same ceremony were Kerr came in with all his championship rings, and told Jack he had some bling bling of his own.

Love ya, Bruce.

**TMTTRIO** · 03-21-2012

Manu did a really nice interview also a day or so ago saying how Bruce really helped him develop as a player by having to face him in practice everyday and understanding what opposing players felt like after facing him. He seemed to give a lot of the credit to Bruce. Very nice ceremony. Bruce is great and will always be remembered as one of the Big 4 and a part of our championship teams. So who's next. Manu or Tim?

Maybe Tim can make an heb commercial for his ceremony, that would get him to talk. Doesn't seem to have a problem with those.

I was thinking the same thing. I wouldn't be surprised if they had Tim/Tony/Manu on the same night.

They should also give Tim/Tony/Manu their own "row" up in the rafters (with Tim claiming the middle jersey, Manu claiming the left side, Tony claiming the right side). Damn, just think about how poetic and metaphorical that would be. Tim being the "center." Manu being left-handed

I say give the Big 3 their own row beneath the current retired jerseys.
