I wouldn't say fired up for his return, but I am very appreciative of his contributions to our team. He was a great find by Brad. I recall him struggling significantly early in his career to the point where it looked like he didn't belong on an NBA roster. He developed into a reliable contributor game to game and eventually played his role perfectly. If I recall correctly, he was the best offensive rebounder in the NBA (by certain metrics) during our title year. He was well loved by his teammates. A great asset to have and I wished we could have kept him, but I'm glad he got a well deserved contract from a well run organization in the Spurs.
Should be fun to watch Kornet and Garza battle for offensive rebounds.
