The End of an Era? Kings Interested in Matt Bonner

[Spurs9]

He will be Veveks right hand man.

[Spur|n|Austin]

Get this guy a job in the FO or behind the bench!

[Old School 44]

Matt gets hated on, but he's improved a great deal. His post defense is underrated, he has helped us in certain match ups, and even if he's struggling with his shot, he spreads the floor with his presence which helps the flow of the game.

At times, he has even been able to put the ball on the floor when run off the three point line. That little baby jump hook is money.

Kings are raiding the Spurs. And vice versa.

[random21]

We still need Matt against Ibaka

Truth

[look_at_g_shred]

Bonner putting pressure on PATFO imho

Spurs West

More like Spurs a little more to the west.

[ginobilized]

I'd love to see Matty B get another year or two of NBA paychecks. He is obviously an awesome dude. Then he'll come back to us in a front office capacity. That's a win-win.

I agree! However, I only want him back for the minimum, anything else he can go.

[K...]

Maybe this was the wink wink part of the McCollum trade

[jermaine]

I'd seriously be hurt if Matt didn't come back. He's a kool kat, an he tries hard. He really can't do much. But he never complains an gives it all he has. Limited an all. But he does his best. Not all NBA players do that. Especially if they're shot isn't falling.

[SpurPadre]

Unless they are offering him a lot of money, I don't see Bonner going there. Spurs or retirement for him, imo.

They have great sandwiches in Sac, tbh. Take the ing bait, Ginger, those sandwiches are AWESOME! DO IT, DO IT!!!

His Grantland interview he says FA is really easy for him because he doesnt look for anything more than vet min
He actually says "Im a minimum salary guy"
I cant see him leaving SA especially not for Sac

Really?! Not here. There's an inexplicable love fest for the guy here and only a very small minority see him for the terrible NBA player he has been for most of his ridiculously long career and rightfully wish he'd be gone. The guy has simply taken up space that could've actually been used for a young prospect to develop his game and learn the system directly from Pop. The time for him to leave the team has been long overdue.

[mrtxstar]

Leaving the Spurs at this point is tantamount to giving up a ring. Why would he willingly do that? Nope, he's staying and then maybe retiring.

[Despot]

I saw an article a couple of weeks ago where he said if the Spurs did not want him he would move on to another team. He seemed excited when he was asked about the celtics as a possibility. I read the article twice and I am not sure why I was left with the impression he was looking for a good amount of money.

I'm pretty sure he drives a 1997 Pontiac Grand Prix. I'm not joking.

I have a feeling he's financially secure.

[rmt]

He is the unofficial big 4 tbh.

the only player left over from the 2007 le team and saw through the ish 2009,2010 and 2011 seasons

He was part of the reason why it was ish - that Bonner/Blair lineup. Bonner should go to the Kings if they give him a good offer. Pop will always take him back for the front office later.

[BatManu20]

I think Bonner bolts if the Kings are offering him something decent. He said in the Grantland interview with Mic e Beadle that he wouldn't be opposed to playing somewhere else (to which she of course said was blasphemous, and that he must remain a Spur). So I wouldn't be surprised. Gotta get paid while he still can, tbh.

[Laughing Gravy]

Better not be kiddn'...

He has been palatable the last few years in his vastly reduced role, but before that he was my most hated Spur of all time. Pops suckfest with the Red Rocket probably cost us at least 1 ring. Get to steppin mr. 1 trick pony. We finally might not have to deal with this pathetic "big man" with a dogs penis as a nickname any more!

[ducks]

his role would be very limited here
I could see him wanting to play more and get paid more with the kings
has his rings and maybe he wants to see all the fun in the kings lockerroom

[Johnsyounger]

[SnakeBoy]

I'd be shocked if Matt wasn't wearing silver&black when the season starts. I hated him when was a primary option but as a limited role player I think he's good for the Spurs.

[wontstartdumbthreads]

Bull .

Bonner used to shoot lights out. That was years ago. In recent years he's been an awful shooter and bricked us out of many games.

Hs a big reason why we ended up with 6th seed last year.

Good riddance

that kid in your sig always makes me do a double take. what the .
