    Indeed. McDycess is one of the more bizarre attempts (kinda sounds like they're trying to pluralize McDyess, like we could get two of 'em). Maybe just sticking to the nickname "Dice", would be the best way to avoid these situations.

    I want to see Bruce in Silver and Black. My heart speaks louder than my mind.

    I don't see any chance for Oberto.

    If we can trade Finley I think Bruce has a chance

    It's a numbers thing. Spurs have like 16 players signed already. They're not bringing back Fab and Bruce. Really.

    Bruce as a coach? yes, that would work.
    +1

    Let him retire, return as a coach to teach Bowen-esque defense, and hang his jersey in the rafters!

    Is there a better defensive closer in the league than Bowen? I don't think so. The Spurs win with defense. Bruce still has plenty left in the tank. He exemplifies what it means to be a Spur, and can still play. We need him AFAIC.

    I want Bruce and KURT back!!!
    I actually have heard that the Spurs will try to get Kurt back if he is released. So both could definitely be a possibility.

    We can't have it both ways. We're either moving forward or not.
    +1000

    Unless it works out that Pop just has an empty spot, it's time to move on.

    And even if it did work out that way, he'll get no playing time with all the wings on this team, especially RJ and Manu.

    Should the Spurs put Bowen on the roster for the next decade?!?

    I know it's hard, with Bowen's class, but it won't get any easier to make the break from the old to the new.

    I think this is as good a time as any to do so.

    Again, if the Spurs shop around and can't find good two way SF, ie Raja Bell, then perhaps Pop brings him back.

    But bringing him back just to do so is crazy.

    Bruce is only old because people heard someone say that, so they just repeat it.

    There is nothing wrong with Bruce. He is still the best perimiter defender in the league, period, regardless of his age! Even if we didn't start him, even if he got 5 minutes a game, at least we could go to him when someone is torching us, a life saver.

    If they don't bring him back, we are screwed. And people will only realize that when we get torched by Kobe and Artest and whatever other dude that we have no defender for. People wanna get smart and say "we can't have Bruce till he's 45" What crap.

    We can still use his services for the time that Tim is still here.

    It can't be stated any simpler... This post should have ended the thread.

    I can't see any way Oberto makes it back into the lineup. If Bowen got back on, assuming there is even any mutual desire for that, it would mean none of the young guys panned out, and he still would be the last wing off the bench. He got few minutes as it was last year. With Jefferson on the team, most nights Bowen would be a DNP-CD. Is that even worth it?

    Now if Bonner and Finley get dealt for a better fourth big man, then the tiny bit the door is cracked open maybe becomes a bit wider for Bowen, assuming he even wants to come back. If they're dealt for another wing like Raja Bell, then the door shuts for good.
