I'm tired of this crap.
I don't care about next year yet. I'm still torked about this year. Getting owned by the Lakers is as bad as it gets.
Until next season, guys ...
Pop needs to play Bonner or trade him. Bruno was right that not playing him at all this season came back to bite the Spurs in the ass. They really could have used his shooting and hustle at times.

It worth whining about when Josh Smith only made $2,243,543 this season in Atlanta.....
So when he resigns for over 6 or 7 will you then STFU?
That statement is all kinds of stupid.
You also know hes on a ROOKIE contract correct stupid?
And of course having a guy who can put up points couldn't hurt in the postseason.
Indeed. The thing is, Pop has to be willing to do that in the regular season instead of going with vets off the bench.Yes. Whether Mahinmi or perhaps even Splitter emerge as the better prospect, whoever it is needs a lot of time. I'm talking 20+ minutes per game in the regular season. That will keep the other bigs fresh and give the player good experience.
The biggest mistake, even bigger than totally retooling the bench, would be to rely on the Big Three and the old players in the regular season next year. Spurs need new blood to keep the other players fresh.
Manu having to carry the team in February was part of the reason why they're fishing right now.
Spurs fans say they want the team to be younger, but it really means they want to improve team speed and aggressiveness. Yes, that tends to correlate with youth. Players like Barnes, Pargo, and Herrmann would fit that mold.
Herrmann is a really intriguing prospect.
He could be had for cheap, his stock isn't that high.
You should try to sucker some team into giving up a decent draft pick or young player for Bowen. That's your only chance of getting athletic enough to contend quickly imo.
But you're an idiot.
I keep Horry if he wants to come back just for an end of the bench run.
Udoka back the guy showed up for the Hornet's series and was just a bad matchup with Kobe.
Thomas back. Thomas can be a great Kevin Willis like player if the spurs need a banger next year.
Barry must return I wouldn't depend on him to be our only backup pg next year but I would play him like it.
Get rid of Finley, Vaughn, Stoudemire.
Tradebait- Oberto, Bonner, and Udoka for the right offer/
The Spurs need Splitter, he makes the rest if the off season much easier.
The Spurs need a 4th scorer. A big 2 who can create his own shot and makes a consistent 12 pts a game he has to be large enough to slide over to the 3 and 4 positions to close out the game. He needs to start and play well enough to keep Manu on the bench.
Not much of a marker for 36 year olds that can't dribble. Or pass. Or shoot free throws. And who is invaluable to his current team.
Seriously, the guy made as much as James Posey....and has no future against the Lakers or Hornets...the two future powers in the West...
That statement is all kinds of stupid.
Always nice to hear your brilliant takes!
Seriously, Chris Paul made $3,615,960 this season!
A guy like Corey Maggette would be a good fit with your team. He can score and probably wants out of Clipperland as he hates Dumbleavy.
He can create his own shot and get to the line a lot.
You could also use a guy like Jason Maxiell of Detroit, a big bruising player with some inside beef.
Detroit has no incentive to get rid of Maxiell. Maggette is a one-dimensional player who will probably always be overpaid.
My point is he's got a qualifying offer for 08-09 less than Bonner...
You might be able to deal him to a contender that feels he's the missing piece to their puzzle. Worth a try anyway. I don't get San Antonio's infatuation with the guy. He was completely abused by Kobe.
What kind of point is that?
Are you saying he is going to be signed for that amount?
And are you saying the Spurs could get him for that amount?
They have no shot at getting either Maggette or Maxiell for the players suggested.
Until the second half tonight, that statement isn't remotely true.
Honestly, NO ONE would've slowed down Kobe tonight.
Dude was just UNREAL.
Besides, Bowen still completely owns Brandon Roy, so he's got value.
When I look at this summer FAs, draft prospects and trade possiblity, i have a hard time to see how Spurs FO will be able to improve the team for next year.
It looks like a damn hard task (even harder is Splitter don't sign with Spurs). Spurs FO will need to have a near perfect offseason. Otherwise, Spurs will be one step behind some teams next year.
