Hey Spurs fans! When the team was in Toronto I was able to chat with Matt Bonner about his decision to play for Canada starting this summer. I also talked with the head coach for the team, Leo Rautins, about what Bonner's role will be.

Re: Bonner to play for Canada
Great article, I guess this means Dalembert's days with team Canada are over already. Can't wait to see him suit up for us in the summer.

Re: Bonner to play for Canada
I think the addition of Matt Bonner could make them a touch more respectable. The roster is still a shambles from top to bottom though.
