U ungrateful s!!!! Bonner has been here forever an you niccas just wanta cut him for some new nicca who don't even matter!!! all yal
Poor move. Bonner is a terrible basketball player, and you cut a guy at the end of his career who can't sign with a contender. Unfortunate to see such a seemingly genuine organization do something like this.
But maybe Butler is a terrible person with a bad at ude.... move on. Bonner is still worthless
Haha jermaine, mah
Forever here but never done anything....
It was the logical choice. Hopefully Simmons continue to improve
That's the same as most of yal girlfriends an wives!!!! But yal keep them hitches around an treat them hoes like queens... es ain't worth a dime, but yal parade them s around. But wanna cut my nicca Bonner... that's my "White brotha from anotha motha"!!!
Isn't Butler 2 years older than Bonner?
Maaaan, I'm serious. Bonner may not be a superstar, but he's a glue guy that does what he's ask the best he can with no complaining. I respect that, an so does the Spurs it seems. Neither Bonner or Butler is really gonna matter come playoff time anyway. So why get rid of a glue guy that can talk to Aldridge an tell him small things to do on the court. Butler can't do that!!!
Won't affect and all, but really a , low blow move by the Spurs FO. Unless there was some sort of an under the table deal for Butler to move into coaching staff or management. But still, IMHO not the right basketball decision to go, not really.
damnnat this Express-News article from 2 weeks ago
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The Spurs were in Los Angeles earlier on this road trip when the NBA trade deadline came and went.
At the moment the proverbial clock struck midnight — or noon, rather — the Spurs were finishing shootaround at the Staples Center in preparation for a game against the Clippers that night.
When it became clear that no moves would be made, Rasual Butler looked at teammate Ray McCallum and smiled.
“We made it,” Butler said, grasping McCallum in a brief bro hug.
Truth be told, Butler hadn’t been sweating the deadline that much. Not really.

neither on the team right now
Can he even sign with another playoff team at this point (and be eligible for a playoff roster)
As we saw in the 2014 series in OKC, Bonner doesn't have to hit 3-pointers to be useful in the playoffs. All he has to do is spread the floor and pull rim protectors out of the paint by the mere threat of his 3-pt shooting, and he will already have served his purpose.
Besides, it doesn't really matter because at the end of the day, neither player is likely to make a meaningful contribution in the playoffs anyway.
LOL, he averaged 15 minutes a game when he was inserted in the starting lineup in the OKC series. There are 48 minutes in a game. People need to stop exaggerating his role in that series as it's really a slap in the face to Diaw's role as the real x-factor in that series.
God damn...Bonner is like a virus that just won't go away!
Seriously, I like Butler. But he looked tired and slow out there. While Bonner played with intensity when he was in. Honestly, I dont know what happened after he left the Wiz
Is it too late to cut Porker for him?????????
Matt Bonner = Herpes
All I can say is that this move sucks. However, Bonner can be more of a situational player than Butler. Too many guys can bring similar to what Butler can. I can see how Bonner helps change for example a series vs OKC if Ibaka is being a problem. Also, I can somehow see Bonner getting in raymond Greens head like he would vs Zebo.
As for waiving Rasual now as opposed to while he'd be playoff eligible for another team, I don't think Pop wanted this guy coming back and burning us if picked up by LA or maybe OKC.
Spurs made him 27 Mill...so loyal
that got
@JabariJYoung
Just spoke to Rasual Butler... Here's what he said: #Spurs
Is this saying that the Spurs are the ones that made Martin wait for a whole week? As in, he would have signed earlier if they could figure out who to cut. If so, that's ridiculous.
8 pages and someone finally puts in concrete terms why it's not necessarily classless. One or two others beat around the bush, but this is concrete. Of course PATFO could have discussed caveats with Butler along the way, or even from the beginning. There is no reason to assume that Butler feels slighted by this move without knowing particulars.
Butler would have averaged zero.
