keep.... blair at one point was an all nba rebounder.... spurs tried too turn blair into a diaw type of player ....
He lost weight during the off-season and looked decent to start the year, but he has continued to struggle after being re-inserted into the starting lineup..he continues to be a complete liability, and his defensive improvement was short-lived..
Should the Spurs keep him until the contract is over, or just move his ass as soon as possible, tbh?..

Blair didn't look decent in the last 2 seasons
dude is not worth spurs roster spot let alone nba minimum from the spurs...
dude is basically a scrub
spurs had the best record in the league with blair starting the last 2 seasons .... blair benched in the playoffs = spurs eliminated
Blair sucks the guy cant even finish a layup and plays out of control.
Something is wrong with him. He's either hurt (ankle? knees?) or he consumed 500 Whataburgers in the last week. Right now he can't jump over a phone book. Short + Can't Jump = No Chance
He shouldn't even be in the NBA, tbh.
Short, fat, no athleticism, EXTREMELY low bball IQ, emo on twitter, etc.
And this is his contract year. :/
I really lost all respect for Blair and became a certifiable hater after his Twitter tirade. That was childish.
Drop him from the rotation and continue to bide their time until they're able to include him in a package for an upgrade. If they can't get exactly what they want or don't like the asking price, then just trade him for whatever he can fetch at the deadline (if nobody wants him, just waive him) and sign McDyess.
Either way, enough is enough. It was worth a shot to give him another chance and eliminate Bonner from the rotation, but it's clearly run it's course.
He's been pretty good IMO.
Trolling hard there
Some elite trolling by playblair.
It was obvious to me about 5 games ago that Bonner should be ahead of Blair in the rotation. Never thought I would say that, but he's earned and Blair is a liability right now. Whether it's due to injury (likely) or just that he's not very good, he's hurting the team (even if the numbers are positive with him, they have to be less positive than other combos). Bonner is the lesser of two evils right now and as long as Tiago is the 3rd big or greater I have no issues.
He's probably going to spend the rest of his career here.![]()
In my opinion, our big rotation should be:
1. Duncan
2. Stiffler
3. Diaw
4. Bonner
5. Blair
Stiffler/Diaw are kind of interchangeable, but I really feel that we have more upside with Stiffler in the long run.
imagine how Blair would respond on Twitter if this were to happen
blair is needed

Not only funny but true as well.
I think overall Blair is a good guy/teammate and he's handled things (being a starter, then yanked for playoffs for example) about as good as one could hope. But even he has to understand (whether it's injury or something else) that he's been given plenty of opportunity and he's absolutely squandered it.
No matter what, I don't want Bonner in the rotation. If rolling out Blair's corpse for 15 minutes a game keeps the human fool's gold on the bench, I'll live with that.
But obviously Blair is dealing with something more than his typical sloppy play. I can't tell if he's injured or fat but he's definitely worse than normal.
Blair wouldn't be a starter in Europe or D league but he is for the Spurs![]()
I don't think Bonner's earned it, he's just, as you said, the lesser of two evils. He improves the spacing on offense and is a more sound defender. And with the way he's rebounding right now (though I fully expect him to come crashing back down to earth any game now), they wouldn't even lose much there. But the fact that we're still talking about either of these two having to consume a spot in this team's rotation is laughable.
should have been gone already...
