Interesting post on Pounding The Rock about Matt Bonner. http://www.poundingtherock.com/2013/...-and-thats-sad
Of particular interest:
I'm sure Bonner wouldn't choose to go out like that, but I think he will be fine with it. The man knows who he is. He will continue to work hard and be generally likable, fulfill his contract obligation and if it comes to it, exit San Antonio quietly. I know I'm probably in the minority but against all logic and reason I'd be okay if the Spurs re-sign him. Unfortunately I just don't see it happening considering his age and the Spurs' cap situation. Maybe he goes back to Toronto, where both he and his family feel at home. Maybe a contender adds him or he gets a nice contract from a middling team.
Matt's a fan favourite still in Toronto - might be a fun idea as an end-of-bench guy.
