Our old backup PG

[MoSpur]

Had 30 points last night. He also had seven assists with one turnover. No...not Speedy Claxton. No...not Mike Wilks. Yes Beno Udrih. Everyone's favorite here had a career night.

[Dex]

Motherfucker waited for me to drop him out of my fantasy team before he decides to start playing.

Typical. :pctoss

[Dre_7]

It really doesnt matter what he does in Sac. He couldnt do it in SA, so who cares?

[MoSpur]

I find it funny this dude is putting up points like that. He's always had talent.

[jrmp317]

Good for Sacramento. As one of the biggest Beno supporters when he was here I can say I'm truly glad he's gone.

Every time Beno balls like this, I just want to do a Tiger Woods fist pump right in Popobitch and R.C. Failford's faces.

Always had. Still has. And will continue to have wherever he goes. Its just to bad him and Pop couldnt get along. Beno easily hasnt been replaced. And it would be nice to have a backup who could do everything the spurs need right now from his position.

Against the Clippers...

I bet JV couldn't do it against them

[Texas_Ranger]

I bet that if Vaugn would play 48 min. against them, he'd still have like 4 points!:hat

[kace]

I find it funny this dude is putting up points like that. He's always had talent.

he has the talent to average 12.8 ppg at 46 % and 4.2 apg for 32 minutes per game. It's what he did last year. it's the only talent he has and will ever have.

most of NBA players can put great numbers in an only game.

but some posters seem to like starting a thread for every good game a former spurs has. LAME.

No, what I do is I look at Jacque Vaughn's profile on NBA.com and have a good laugh. Then, I look at Beno's and see 13 and 4 to go along with 3 boards last season in 32 minutes, shooting 46% and 39% from 3.

No. When he got sufficient playing time. AKA more than 10 minutes per game.

So are you arguing Beno not getting sufficient playing time was entirely on the coaching staff, and had nothing to do with Beno being out of shape his last season with the Spurs?

Being out of shape is overrated. If you can play, you can play. Getting back into shape happens rather quickly, especially at the NBA level. Maybe if he got more run on the court he'd keep himself in shape a bit more.

Doesn't really matter, because Sacramento is reaping the benefits of San Antonio's shitty, overrated front office/coaching staff now. Matter of fact, the only coach that deserves praise on this staff is Chip, for improving Tim's free throw shooting last season, and giving Parker a respectable jump shot.

Using that argument, there's no excuse for Beno letting himself go out of shape.

You don't need NBA game minutes to keep in shape.

Trying to blame the coaching staff and front office for that happening is frankly ridiculous.

Not really. His stats in Sacramento are the same per minute as they were in SA.

http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/u/udrihbe01.html

He hasn't become a better player....he's just getting more minutes. I still blame Pop for not cultivating Beno. The kid has talent. Not Tony Parker talent, but definitely more than Jacque Vaughn.

[MoSpur]

I would have liked Beno to work out no doubt, but for some reason Pop ran out of patience. I don't honestly know if it was Beno's fault or Pop just not liking him for some reason. I think Beno had more to do with it. Pop actually gave that dude a lot of time to develop and he was always injured.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

Some guys fit some places, some guys don't. Bruce Bowen couldn't hold on to a roster spot with a few clubs before landing here. Beno had talent but he was most definitely not one of Pop's kind of guys.

[Budkin]

It's only because there's no pressure on him now. The Kings aren't going anywhere. Fact is the guy sucks ass under pressure on a winning team. He couldn't hack it in Pop's system.

[Obstructed_View]

Beno has more talent than Tony Parker, but he's a lazy turd, and he has no will to win or competetive spirit. He's mentally weak, he's a pampered crybaby and he will never improve his game. I wish the Spurs could have gotten something more for him, or at least not picked up his fucking option, but he was NEVER going to be the type of guy who did well as a Spur, and the only contribution he made to either championship when he was here was by keeping his mouth shut and collecting his paychecks.

I don't get why people don't understand that there are many players out there who can put up numbers on a bad team, but fewer that can fill a role a championship contender. Beno is in the first group.

He did, but we also won two championships with him on the roster.

Beno's Efficiency per 48 minutes is 18.32. George Hill's is slightly higher, at 19.87.

Hill's rating is also currently higher than those of JR Smith (18.34), Kelenna Azubuike (18.27), and Stephen Jackson (18.1).

You're still buttsore over a tongue-in-cheek comment I made about Beno, made ages ago, made strictly to get your dander up. Which worked brilliantly, to the point that you still can't forget about it.

Still wrong. Rasho was the starting center for a team that later won a championship after he was replaced as the starting center. Any postseason for the Spurs where Rasho was the starter at the end was a season that ended without a championship. You were called out for being wrong by more people than just me.

Wait, there was a time when Beno was fat?

Hugely. Training camp every year, and pretty much his whole last season here.

You don't seem to think that coming into camp in shape is that big of a deal, but almost all sports organizations expect it, and have for at least the last decade. Beno was injured in camp almost every year. Beno came into camp fat every year. It's not a coincidence.

It's simple really, but that is even less flattering for you to not get it.
As for Rasho and top 50 list. I feel that he is more deserving to be on that list than some other individuals. But I wasn't the one, who organized anti-Rasho voting on this board. I recall your statements that sounded a little something like this: "vote whoever, just to keep Rasho out." And you were not the only one.
And if in your twisted logic mob behavior is a way to go, so be it.
