I still think he'll be back, but I agree that it's Spurs or retirement..it makes a lot of sense for us to bring him back though, so I'll stick with that..
I think it's a no-brainer for Milwaukee to buy him out, then I think Bruce is either going to come back to the Spurs, or retire. He made it very clear that San Antonio is his home, with the business him and his wife started, and he doesn't plan on leaving anytime soon. So, with that being said, I think Bruce will end up back in San Antonio.

I mean you can make all the asinine comments you want, but to distill Bruce Bowen's contributions over the past several years like that makes you just sound ignorant.
God bless you Bruce and your Family,at least we know we'll see you in SA as a businessman
Now that would be a shrewd FO decision.
Thanks for Posting This
He'll be back!!!
and his #12 will be hanging from the rafters
He forgot the thank ST !!!!!
Blasphemy !!!!
Wojnarowski
http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news;_yl...yhoo&type=lgnsThere’s no chance Bowen returns to the Spurs if the Bucks buy him out as well. His relationship with Gregg Popovich deteriorated with his dwindling role a year ago, and that partnership is over.
LOL..the media really shouldn't be allowed talking about the Spurs in any cir stance..
Please. Woj has been on point for the past couple of years. Had the SA/Milw deal posted more than an hour before ESPN. Yahoo has been breaking everything lately. And you already know he'd probably ran this by Ludden.
I see no reason to doubt him. Don't shoot the messenger for the message.
I don't believe it. Bruce made it obvious in the video that it's San Antonio or done.
The other part
Oberto, who was traded to the Detroit Pistons in a three-way deal with the Milwaukee Bucks and will be bought out by the Pistons in a salary-cap move, will likely return to San Antonio as a free agent. …
I think that's probably projection on his part. Obviously Bowen wasn't thrilled with his playing time last year. But I don't think for a second that his relationship has deteriorated with Pop or the Spurs.
I imagine he'll be associated with the Spurs in some way in this upcoming year.
I think they'll look at bringing Oberto back at the minimum, after they look at a lot of other bigs. But who knows, Oberto might retire too.
Apparently Oberto is more likely to come back than Bruce unfortunately. I'm a big Bruce fan but all in all bringing back Oberto makes more sense than Bruce right now as we only have 3 bigs available and when I say big... speaking about matt you see what I mean
Think of it this way, Bruce may be part of bringing another championship to SA Spurs because of this trade.
And he'll be back, living here with his great family, being a good citizen like so many other Spurs who've retired here, making HEB commercials and either as a coach or a broadcaster.
So this isn't goodbye, it's just Vaya Con Dios and Hasta La Vista.

Bruce is a complete class act! Can't wait to see his jersey in the rafters. (Okay, I can wait a year or two if he's playing for the Spurs!)
This is the same guy that said Maggette was most likely to sign with the spurs?
Not the first time he's been wrong and it won't be the last either..
Cue Whitney Houston's 'I Will Always Love You.'
Any serious basketball team will miss a player that won a playoff game by blocking a shot, after scoring ZERO points in that game.
When I had to indicate an example to follow to my kids,
I pointed to Bruce Bowen.
Me excluded, of course.
Who else in the league is as gracious, classy, and positive as Bruce Bowen? He is like David Robinson in that regard.
BB will always ge one of my favorite Spurs. Total class act. Total professional - even if Ray Allen and Vince Carter feel differently.
I expected nothing less from him than this type of post-trade commentary.
I'm gonna miss him. I really hate he never won DPOY. However, his jersey WILL be in the rafters in a couple of years.
Cheers to you Bruce!
When I come into town, I'm coming to your SPA.
He's got to come back. Who will Sean make fun of when they get bored while calling the games?
Apparently Oberto would come back, I think the chances to see again Bruce with a spurs jersey are thin.
