Bonner does have a great deal of value as a regular season minute sponge, but in the playoffs, he's been dreadful, and that is an understatement. Still, what is your alternative. Given all the loose money chasing limited talent this FA off season, we are going to overpay for almost anyone, and since we have Bird rights on Bonner, we don't have to give anything up to retain him. Since we're over the cap and just used the MLE on Tiago, to get someone for more than a vet-min, you would have to do a sign and trade.
Please Kobe, don't cry :-D'
