Just let Vaughn retire.
My picks are Jack Vaughn, Fabrico Oberto, Matt Bonner and Michael Finley. We should try and get some youth for these players...all of them wont be good for our future. So Spurs fans who would you like gone off the Spurs roster?

Just let Vaughn retire.
Vaughn
Oberto
Finley (I know that wont happen)
Bowen (I hate to include him, but its time)
Udoka and Vaughn
Bowen? Really? I wouldn't mind giving him one more year (though he'd be pushing 38). I feel like we'd be giving up too important of a piece. We've all seen how badly we've begged for Pop to play him more.
I agree with Oberto, Finley, and Vaughn
I'd keep Bowen. I haven't seen strong signs of a decline. Just a lack of minutes.
Wow..Bowen still has a good year left in him. He can still play defense just not at the level he used to.
Truthfully, I believe Bowen has another year left in him too. However, I truly believe Pop will get rid of him before Finley.
Bowen should be back, but he won't be. Bonner is a nice fit given his salary and skills, but much better as a 4th or 5th big.
Vaughn should be gone. Finley can put up points, but it's time to move on.
I appreciate Oberto's contribution, but it's time to turn the page.
lol@finley leaving anytime soon
I think he secretly gives pop fellatio
I like gooden back
he can score and atleast spell duncan some
Udoka(doubtful), Vaughn, Finley, Bonner somehow
Oberto: Bigs that know the system are hard to come by. We still don't know what we got in Ian, and if Gooden keeps ball hogging he probably will be in the doghouse by the 10th game next season. That is, if we manage to sign him up considering we're trying to save money for 2010. Plus the guy is all heart. He stays.
Vaughn: Another hard working guy that's always ready when called upon. The reality is that we still have no backup point guard, because we don't know what we really have with Hill. Plus George makes a much better bargaining chip to trade for another vet down the line. We're really thin at this position, so somebody that knows the system like him is of high value. Plus he would be cheap to sign to an extension. He stays.
Bonner: Top 10 3 point shooter in the league. Spaces the floor. Just what the doctor prescribed. Again, we still don't know what we have with Ian, and Kurt is old enough that we don't know how long can remain at his current level. This is a young guy that would work great as insurance. Plus he's relatively cheap. He stays.
Udoka: Extremely good rebounder for his size, and his offense is light years better than Bowen. Team player, doesn't complain when he's benched for long periods of time. Sure, he has had his up and downs, but guys like Battier or Artest are not available/too expensive, so this is the best we can get for our money. This is a young guy that can play Bowen's position while we regulate Bowen's minutes throughout the season (if Bruce were to stay, read below). He stays.
Finley: How many 35+ year old guards can play over 30 minutes a night? Finley can. Hard working guy and a mentor in the locker room. This is an ex-All Star talent we're talking about here. This is the reason we gave him a player option for next season, which I'm sure he's gonna use, and we're going to be pleased to have him back. He stays.
Bowen: Considering the change in philosophy for this team, and that he has obviously lost a step out there, I think he's the odd one out. Bruce gave it all for us, but it's time to part ways. He will be missed, but this would open up a roster spot for Gist/Hairston/Williams, so it's kind of a no brainer. He goes.
And I think the rest has played well enough to deserve another shot. So in a nuts , Bowen would be the only one going, opening a spot in the roster for a young gun from the summer camp. We would save some money by keeping players that are paid in the low end of the scale, and so we don't jeopardize the 2010 master plan.
Obviously, this post is a joke.
