I really miss George Gervin. This up tempo game would definitely but advantageous for us.
mason cant even shoot anymore. the dude has shot in the 20 percentile from downtown since all star break.... of course finley would be better than that piece of . Mason is absolutely terrible. probably one of the worst players in the NBA. temple,hairston, ing gee would be better options then that bum.
I miss Cadillac Anderson and sweaty red-faced Ed Nealy. Bring em all back
The one thing I miss about Finley is that he's a better 3-point shooter than anyone that currently comes off the Spurs bench. There was a sequence in the fourth where the ball was rotating through the guys we had on the floor around the arc and I was praying that none of them would try and shoot from there.
Also, I imagine it's frustrating for the players to swing the ball to the open man and see Mason or Bonner taking a shot that everyone knows has no chance of going in.

At least Finley was clutch and stepped up some in the playoffs as a Spur.
I'm getting tired of defending Mason. Ever since his annoucement of a trade, he's been an abolute dissappointment.
Of course Finley is decent in comparison to Mason..
Luke Bonner >>> Mason..
I don't miss Finley though..there's always the risk of Pop playing him too much, and he was a symbol of old age for this team..
I agree with the overall premise though..I always miss Bowen, Horry, Barry and all the clutch role players the Spurs used to have..they always showed their Turkoglus in the playoffs..it also helped that the Spurs had shooters..
They always showed their what in the playoffs?
BallsThey always showed their what in the playoffs?..
I miss 2003 Duncan.
not 03-04 Hedo.
Get over Finley, he is a washed up 37 year old. He'd be throwing up bricks along with everyone else in that 2nd unit.
The problem IMO is very simple actually.. Pop has never really settled on anyone as a regular rotation 2-guard in that 2nd unit. Especially toward the end of the year he was still ing around with Garret Temple instead picking guys he would actually use in the playoffs. Now all of a sudden he expects Roger Mason Jr to be a big contributor off the bench in limited minutes.. ain't gonna happen, Pop.
If you were gonna around with Garret Temple in the last month of the season you should have STUCK with him in the playoff you dumb jackass POP.
I miss Mike D'Antoni
I don't miss Bruce Bowen
I miss Jaren Jackson. His 3's from 1999 would be nice.
I miss Stephen Jackson.
I didn't mean Turkoglu had balls..he certainly doesn't..
His "Ball" incident became slang..
Good times..
Words cannot explain how much of a failure this thread is.
If you miss Finley you are truly in the minority.
Look, if he had any game left at all, he'd be getting minutes with the Celtics - and he has not. That should tell you everything you need to know.
The Celtics don't have Roger Mason.
Man, that guy was a ty ass coach.
What the was Kobe thinking when he posed for those photos. Were they playing a trick on him? You don't even have to photoshop them for him to look stupid.
Is it merely a coincidence that the Mavs look like the dream team against the Spurs as soon as Finley joins and they're back to being the Mavs once he's gone? So yeah I don't miss Finley but I would take the other role players from the past back in a heart beat, particularly Bruce.
I agree about the bench though. Strangely it went from being the one strength to a glaring hole. Obviously due to Manu, but it would help if guys like RMJ hadn't fallen off a cliff.
Finley would be cremated on defense but at least he would hit a few shots. He asked to be released, though, so whatever.
