Mcgrady for the win! He can still do it, he could be effective on the bench but he could be more effective on the court. We know that he just wants to win just like all of us on the board. go spurs, bring home the win! spurs4legacy
Just Neals
Just Bonners
NO HES WASHED UP!
Take both of their minutes please
I don't care
I can't tell if you're serious or just trolling. I watch every single player playing. Randolph pulled more rebounds than Duncan and Splitter in every games (like 14-16 in a few of them). Bonner has no post defense, no rebounding ability. He literally wraps them up. Count up how many games he's had 4-5 fouls in 15-20 minutes playing.

Bonner needs limited minutes to be effective. Within those limited minutes he can't pace himself. He has to go all out.
Bonner has had a good play-offs I can see him being useful, Haslem is someone he can guard and he can be effective against birdman as long as we have strong rebounder on the floor with him.
I see T-Mac as a back-up SF to guard LeBron limited minutes for Kawhi to get a breather if absolutely required.

I dunno, I dug up his highlights when he played in China. Still look like he got it to me. I can see why Pop picked him up. But that said, you go with the team that got you to where you are. Granted he's not posterizing Shawn Bradley anymore but if T-Mac plays like this next year, damn! He's more suited for the point guard position now. His court vision is unbelievable and he'd be a mismatch for anyone else at guard. JVG did use T-Mac a lot at the guard position while he was in Houston.

T-Mac is still a decent player, tbh. It was only about a year and a half ago when he owned Lebron on his home court, tbh.
The team he played with was horrible. The only reasons pop would play tmac would be if he saw something in him during practice or neal suddenly collapses.
He's had time to get up to speed with a few things during the layoff. Who knows, Pop might see something we don't. If not, pray Neal can come through for us.
Did you watch the videos? Dude can still dunk the ball. He still has all his moves and ball handling skills. He's 34 yrs old. Maybe he's a step slower than before but he can find other ways to score. He's much more adept at passing the ball and he doesn't turn the ball over.
Neal seems healthier but his shot still isn't falling, and if it isn't there is no point of having him playing.
The NBA finals is not where you essentially debut new players into the rotation
I have not seen anything from T-Mac this year the leads me to believe he can still ball. I am not saying he can't, just all I have seen from him is standing around the 3 point line and whipping nice passes followed by occasional missed 3s
I agree Tracy needs to play this series but...it's not gunna happen unless we find ourselves down 3-1 or something.
Just like Blair not playing vs the Thunder last year until game 6. We needed him. Pop was stubborn.
Let's just pray it doesn't get to that point.
I gotta agree with Neal and Bonner being completely useless this series. Especially Neal dribbling the ball vs the Heat's pressure defense is just a nightmare...
And Bonner just isn't quick enough defensively. He also can't jump.
Neither one should play. Why not let T-Mac have a few minutes? And Blair?
T mac will not see a minute in the series unless we are down big or up big. This is the truth.
