    No thanks...Spurs could use their money more wisely..if he were a true SF, maybe, but at $28 mil over the next 4 years for a backup SG..nah
    He wouldn't be backing anyone up in SA.

    i'm no PETA advocate, but staging dog fights in your house is illegal, stupid and horribly cruel.

    manu is the better player then him

    bowen has to start to be effective or are you going to trade him?

    Manu also can't seem to play more than 35 minutes a night despite being paid like it. He also wasn't the most durable this season. And he's the youngster in the perimeter rotation.

    He's not getting paid much.

    You can afford to keep him around and bring him off the bench in situations where you need him. Unless you get a really nice trade offer, keep him.

    Someone actually has Woods dog pictures?

    The Spurs won't take a gamble on someone they think won't fit. Jax obviously did and it worked out great. The Spurs don't just hire boy scouts. There are plenty of burners on the squad.

    and let the other team's best perimeter player get in a groove? a player like bowen needs to be getting under ray allen's skin at the tip.

    The best idea is to start Jack at the 2 and put Manu back into the spot that's best for him which is coming off the bench.

    SJax isn't a bad defender.

    You would always have Bowen as a weapon off the bench, but with SJax on the court you have so much more versatility on offense and toughness wise while not giving up too much on the defensive end.

    So you start Jax over Manu? If that were the case, we should have just kept Jax instead of Manu,...seriously, whats done is done...the Spurs are not going to pay Manu that much money to come off the bench...sure in certain situations at certain games at certain times of the year he might come off the bench, but Manu is our starting SG..period..Jax didn't work out...not sure what makes you think it would work this time around..it would be a very expensive experiment, one that I'm sure the FO isn't interested in.

    I started a thread this offseason having manu come off the bench
    I actually think that is a good idea

    that was before rasho was traded


    jackson is turnover prone
    I want a better player starting then that

    All Bowen has to do is just LOOK at Ray Allen ... during warmups.

    sjax is nowhere near the defender bowen is, we would lose a lot of defense on the court. we don't really need any more offense in the starting lineup, we could use some punch off the bench. it wasn't our lack of offense that lost us the dallas series, it was the lack of a long 3 or competent mobile center. sjax is neither one of those.

    So when does Manu play 35 minutes a night? You already have to limit his minutes. The rest of the swingman rotation is old as . Jack wasn't retained due to the way free agency played out. Make no mistake that the Spurs wanted him back in '03.

    SJax wouldn't get bullied around by bigger players like Bonzi/Artest.

    Jack's "turnover prone" and Manu is "passionate". Got it.

    I'm not sure what's worse, dribbling it off your foot to the other team or passing it to the other team.

    the thing I question is his at ude
    would he be ok not starting and earning his starting job
    he wanted in his contract with the spurs a guarantee starting job

    I guess chip can help his shot but he was brought over for tp not all the spurs
