Has anyone figured out why this guy puts "VOL" on all his threads?
bonner sucks. the regular season means when you tank and go MIA in the playoffs. he can't be redeemed until the '09 Playoffs start.
not all my threads....![]()
great great win tonight, blair and hill looked awesome. but any real spurs fan knows that boner has no ing place on this team. nice guy, but no ing way does he belong on the court with the greatest power forward to ever play the game and tony and manu. boner, dudes gotta go and thats reality.
What does it mean?
No its not reality. Only in your guy's stupid fantasy basketball world does it.
yeah it is reality dumb . how does boner belong. dude can't play defense, dude cant' produce when it counts. like i said, nice guy but if you think he belongs your, as timmy said about the dress code, re ed.
How many starters since AC Green on the 2000 Lakers don't play 20+ minutes? There's no way Bonner should be getting the minutes it's obvious he is slated to get right now.
Bonner got plenty of open looks, but put up some of the most pathetic numbers I have ever seen out of a Spurs starter that series. Even worse, the Spurs were murdered on glass by Dallas, due in no small part to Bonner pulling a pathetic 3 boards a game. Bonner is a one-trick pony at best, and even that one trick doesn't work in games that matter. He should not be a rotation player on a team with le hopes.
Bonner isnt slated for . If and when he enters a game where the opposing team is abusing Bonner (eg Gasol or Odom), Pop will pull his ass VERY quick, and he will be lucky to see 15 minutes.
tonight he did a good job on west (which ive never said before) and there was no need to pull him.
you guys need to trust pop's ability to pull bonner, and settle the down.
i have advocated trading bonner since last year, but i gotta say if he can gaurd his man i have no problem with him getting minutes.
one thing you guys fail to realize is pop is going easy on the these 30-plus year old players (tim dice ratliff) and thats a luxury, especially when you can let them play themselves into shape slowly while your blowing out a divisional rival
and I quote:
“You see what the game gives and make adjustments as it goes,” Popovich said. “The main thing is that in the back-to-back situation, having to play tomorrow, we didn't have to play our main guys 35 or 40 minutes. We were fortunate tonight.”
you guys sound like noobs all of a sudden![]()
join the party, Harvey:
"What is clear: Popovich headed to Chicago late Wednesday with the deepest team he's ever had."
+1
If we going to our supposedly defense hay days, Bonner should not be starting. Coming off the bench, i'm ok with on spot minutes.
this dude sounds miserable vivapopovich:
Antonio McDyess On the game - “It felt good tonight. I think we played well and had fun together. We had fun as a group out there on the floor. You look at this team with the depth that we have and have know that we have what it takes to be a good ballclub.”
stop fearing, when we need the big guns we got em
for the noobs who dont understand the bonner strategy, take it from Byron Scott:
"On the most impressive area of play from the Spurs tonight - “I think it was their spacing. They keep Tim down there and they just play one in and four out. They do a really good job of just keeping their spacing and keeping their discipline on the perimeter. Guys are catching the ball and making their shots, and if they’re not making their shots, they’re looking to put the ball on the floor and create shots for the other team."
Pop's ability to pull Bonner when he s himself on the floor didn't show through last playoffs. The only time he got less than 15 minutes was game 5, even though the only game he wasn't completely pathetic in was 2. You're expecting something completely unrealistic to think Bonner can guard anyone or rebound, which are the main things the Spurs are going to need from their non-Duncan bigs. Bonner ever starting on Gasol just ensures this team will either get murdered inside early or from the perimeter when they have to throw help Bonner's way. He does not fit at all with this team as anything more than a situational shooter, especially now that it has plenty of other options.
Sounds familiar.
lol @ Bonner being the minutes leader in this blowout. lol @ people complaining about Bonner and loving Blair, when Blair's D made Bonner look like a decent defender. Don't get me wrong, I was lovin' me some Blair down in the low post offensively, but defensively DeJuan was slightly better than an AT&T orange cone.
your way off base.
last season we had no options, so basing your fears on last year is completely unsubstantiated
#2 i dont expect him to defend and rebound, i expect him to spread the floor and hit the three, and when he becomes a liability he will ride the bench
when the spurs need what dice/blair/ratliff provide, those guys will check in at the scorers table
this team is not going to get murdered by anyone
settle the down
