BUMPED FOR PWNAGE
If you start bumping every Sequ thread that turned out to be stupid then the site will crash.
Mark my words, bowen's new contract will turn out be wasted money. bowen's play will drop off this year, and the next, and the next.
Bowen is OLD, there is no way he keep playing D at the level we've grown accustom to.
I'd also like to submit this thread into evidence.
Who cares. He sacrificed money for the organization more than once so they'd have room for other free agents. Whatever money he gets from this contract is less than he deserves.
Bowen deserves all the money he gets from the FO. It's just good business on the Spurs part to take care of the guy who has taken care of them.
good one. That's the thread where spurs_in_7 flamed and Kori immediately dispatched him into the outgoing mail and Recycle Bin.
Then what do you call what Beno has been and will be paid?
Bowen's kept himself in great shape and it's not like he started playing full NBA seasons at age 21. With Udoka coming on board it's likely that Bruce will see his minutes reduced during the regular season. Anyways, it's not like Bowen's guaranteed two full years beyond this season, if he were to really have a sudden decline in his game over the next year or so.
His salary - contributions to the team since he's been here ratio screams otherwise. Stupid ass comment.
well, beno supposedly had/has upside, is getting paid relatively little, and hasn't been extended at 4 mil for 2 years. bowen only has downside, and still was given a contact equal to what he has been making the past few years.
oh well, 4 mil isn't that much in the great scheme of things, I probably shouldn't be ing about it.
Spurs would only have their 1999 championship without Bruce Bowen. Rebounding, scoring, and dunking don't mean if your team can't defend. Phoenix does all that, right? Rebound, score, and dunk.
Got damn... wtf did i do?
This dude is a freak of nature. At times it seems that he has lost a step but there are times when he's locked down on his man. Obviously the FO thought that he still has something to offer otherwise why would they extend him? And now we have Udoka to work with so we'll just have to wait and see what's up. Until I see a consistent lack of D coming from him, I'm still cool with him. Anyway if he starts to melt down then we could start Udoka and bring him off the bench. Not exactly what I would like but at least Udoka has shown last year to be a capable one-on-one defender.
Worst case scenario, we put him in the fridge right next to Horry until playoff time.
When's your next vacation?
Then WHY, might we examine IS THIS STUPID IN THREAD NOT CLOSED/LOCKED Kori!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!??!?!?!?!?
Luv ya...
You seriously think that Pop is going to cut Bowen's minutes if he lets that scrub Horry onto the court still? Nice one.
I am going to laugh mid season when sequ bumps this thread with a big fat "I TOLD YOU SO!"
This thread is re ed.
While it is true I cringe everytime he decides to put the ball on the floor, Bowen is an integral part of the Spurs success. He offers too many intangibles. How bout the block on Chauncey Billups toward the end of Game 7 in the 05 finals, which came after a clutch 3 he hit from a kickout pass from Duncan? How bout the Game deciding 3 pointer he made against Phoenix in game 5 of the 07 semis? Spurs were down that whole game until he hit that 3. How bout that game saving block that nearly put Nowitzki on his ass in game 6 of the 06 semis. How bout those games where it seems like he cant miss a 3? How bout game 6 of the 07 semis where Steve Nash couldnt do anything except turn it over or miss? How about LeBron James being harrassed to no end in the Finals?
it is easy to overlook and completely forget all the things he brings to the team. Pop and co. are not fools. Bruce Bowen is out there for a reason.
