Matt Bonner Back For More: One-Year, Minimum Deal

[timtonymanu]

Speaking of, do you think Boylen gets the Bulls to pick up Ayres? LOL.

I think Ayres did enough to scare any team away.

Maybe Boylen learned his lesson. We'll see.

[MVPCues]

A bunch of sadomasochistic mother ers here that are happy with this . Unreal, lol. Yeah, I know, it's sacrilege to bad mouth this er of all people, lol. Bizarro world, man.

While I think Bonner looked done last year, I don't hate him. I'm sure glad you do though...funny stuff.

1.4 million to sit on the bench and wave the occasional towel.. What a country..

[Vokun]

[outmap]

if he starts at PG that'll be an improvement for us.

[spursparker9]

Still the best Ikaba defender we have.

And playing LMA at 5, Bonner at 4 and Diaw at 3 probably mean that all the 5 guys on the court are a threat from 3 pt line

It's not enough to wet the bed. Sign the new Richard Jefferson, and don't worry about the cap pressure. The real beauty is the following stages of bed wettery.

Ignore the cold shivers. Green, Timmy, Manu there's some wiggle room there.

Induce a nightmarish dream. Why would you want a return on investment? Splitter and Joseph can practically just go.

Then there's what you hope is the final stage. Give up and hide the wet linen, this is the faux encore. The icing on the cake moves. Bring in Bobarian. Take a look at Copeland, pretend you couldn't send Beli and Baynes away before the deadline. Send LJC back to France. Admit summer league is just a show for Anderson and Simmons, nobody else ever had a real shot. And of course re-sign Matt Bonner. Real solid stuff.

Then there's the encore... the moment we have asked for and shall recieve... mom and dad finding out... the tragic playoff bounce! perhaps in conference finals to Golden State, to be fair the Spurs did a pretty good job making the bed look normal. Ah, but the stench of dry piss is too strong! If mom and dad didn't smell it, they surely noticed the Spurs sheet-less bed rash. I'm holding out hope for a truly unexpected surprise, last years Clippers is too easy. The Spurs are better than that, what i'm imagining is something incredible. a first round exit to the 7 seed timberwolves, a truly triumphant moment for KG. He can go on to be the coach of a new, much less Bonnery/bed wettery small town dynasty. or an uglier small town dynasty story. A second round exit to the breath of fresh air Billy Donovan Thunder. All that depth, and even a touch a Spursy flavor like Collisons ridiculous longevity and the totally unfathomable presence of Novak. Money on the thunder, but God i hope KG is hungry.

I think you may have brain cancer bro.

Teams STILL respect him b/c he led the league in 3 point percentage a couple of years ago so he isn't a bad option as the 14th man since he would only be a situational player.

[SpursFan86]

Dude shoots 37% from 3 one season and suddenly people act like he's no longer a threat from deep

Spurs fans are insane. You could do so much worse than Bonner on a minimum deal for your 14th man. He probably won't even play 10 mpg next season, and won't even play 5 mpg in the playoffs...is this seriously that big of a deal to some of you?

[GSH]

I was probably the biggest Bonner hater on the board circa 2011. But considering it's 2015-2016 and this is still on the team, you just gotta admire his resiliency.

Hating on him is pointless, it'd be like hating on the sun for rising every morning tbh

That's funny. Yeah, when we were discovering that he was a playoff no-show, and we still had expectations, we were screaming at the television and hating him. Now we know how he's going to be, don't have any expectations, and anything good he does is a bonus. He's OUR red-headed stepchild.

[ohmwrecker]

ok

[marinoman]

even if he's hesitating and missing 3s he does get ibaka out of the paint in the playoffs. Lets hope donovan is as stupid as brooks and has no counter

[BatManu20]

Bonner's good people. Rather have him than Errors. No issue with this at the minimum and as our 6th big.


With that said, I can't believe this will be Bonner's 10th season with us. How in the did he last 10 years with the Spurs? Pop must REALLY enjoy him as a golfing buddy.

[heyheymymy]

Spurs fans get gifted with the wealthiest off season in franchise history and they want to about the 6th big/14th player. Again, this isn't 2011 where he was out of place and getting used too much. This role is perfect for him and I'm glad he is back.

Bonner is a great guy to have on the team, stretch 4, great locker room presence and has the system down. What more do you want for the min on some deep bigs depth?

You can tell who the little 2k fanboy children are in this thread by the complaining.

[Mugen]

Yeah if anybody is gonna complain about Bonner, it better damn be Spurfan tbh.

[HBK]

Haters gonna hate

[lefty]

[dabom]

Bonner shoots 34% from WIDE OPEN NO PRESSURE SHOTS. lol.

[lmbebo]

Expected it to happen.

Great locker room guy. Stretch 4. Doesn't complain. Knows system. Not being over used. His name isn't Jeff Ayers. I'm happy.

[dabom]

Anyone not named jeff ayers is already better than jeff ayres. Not that high of a bench mark tbh.

[dabom]

Bonner's 3 point pump fake to the baby hook shot is money though.

[dabom]

I lolz everytime.
