Beno Udrih Injured

[Spur219]

He hurt his knee. Everytime you injure your knee it is serious. Damn I am pissed off. He will probably be out for the first half of the season. Knee injuries are very bad.

I just checked SpursReport site where some of the Slovenian posters have been giving status on the games going on. Apparently, this is true. Beno was carried off the court by his teammates with a serious looking injury, according to the eyewitnesses.

[KoriEllis]

Yeah, Slovenia8 has been giving us the details as it happened. It's in that other thread linked above.

[Solid D]

Sorry, I just logged in.

Here is a link to the schedule. These games are being held at different venues in Europe. This game appears to have been played in Prostejov, Czech Republic.

[KoriEllis]

Yeah, I understand the place they played was not even a gym. .. it was a facility/hall normally used for parties or something.

[picnroll]

Don Harris just said he spoke to Buford who spoke to Beno an hour ago and Beno told him the knee was stable so hopefully no ligament damage [hoping].

[KoriEllis]

You beat me to it, picnroll.

Don spoke to RC and I guess Beno will get back to Slovenia for further evaluation (MRI?). Hopefully Beno overreacted and it's just a twist. Any cartilage or ligament damage would suck!

[Solid D]

I was able to hear the radio comments, also and Don propped Kori for breaking the news to them. Then Don called RC and got the update.

[SLOVENIAN 8]

Beno told him the knee was stable so hopefully no ligament damage

I hoping to!!!!!!

Yes they play in some small hall!!!I watch the game on TV! How Czech dont have any basketball gym???:wtf

[SLOVENIAN 8]

Udrih will return to Slovenia for further evaluation.

The Slovenia now play with France in France, not in Slovenia!!!!
Beno might return home, but other players go to France!!!!!!

DUDE HE SHOULD COME TO SA TO GET MEDICAL ATTENTION
no offensive to those that live there
manu's injury took longer when he came to sa when he got hurt in argentine.

[KoriEllis]

If he has an MRI and anything is sketchy, I'm sure he will return to S.A. to see the Spurs' doctors right away.

[Solid D]

manu's injury took longer when he came to sa when he got hurt in argentine.

Are you referring to Manu's injury in Indianapolis? Yes, he went to Argentina afterwards and then came to SA but I'm not sure what you mean.

[KoriEllis]

Manu reportedly didn't get proper treatment in Argentina for his ankle. I think that's what ducks is referencing.

[SLOVENIAN 8]

kori can speak duck:wink

[exstatic]

Ex can, too: Lettuce, Mac, non-grammatical smack!

[WriterNum934]

KSAT12 reported that Danny Ferry spoke with Beno himself and with FIBA and that the injury isn't "serious."

Good news.

[KoriEllis]

Good. RC spoke to Beno himself too.

Hopefully, "not serious" and "stable" mean that there's no damage.

[blackbucket]

Get his ass to SA and lock him up!

This report just in:

"Teammate Rasho Nesterovic also received what is termed to be a non-serious, but painful blow to his ovaries." 8)

looks like mark Cuban had a point after all.

[ducks]

what point?

[MouseOnSports]

About Injuries, everyone said he was just paranoid.

First Duncan now Beano what the bronze medal that important?

[SequSpur]

You all are funny. You act like Beno is going to actually play on the Spurs active roster. :kiss

[KoriEllis]

Pop said that Beno is Parker's main backup. So I guess that would make him be on the active roster.

[SequSpur]

That explains it.

[RevMouse]

Until I jump back on the Spurs wagon you will never see another ring, you can kiss that thought goodbye

:lol 'more like...Until the Spurs see another ring, I won't jump back on the Spurs wagon.

[WriterNum934]

uM... we won in 03 while your sorry ass was off the wagon. You a lame duck.

[ducks]

please do not insult ducks
ducks do not get off the wagon ever

[WriterNum934]

LOL... so true Ducks. Sorry about that.

[SLOVENIAN 8]

Beno and Rasho are coming to San Antonio!!!!!

Po prvih vesteh naj bi šlo za nateg kolenskih vezi, tako da se je Udrih že odpravil proti Ljubljani, kjer ga čaka terapija.
Translate of quote: At first news Beno is coming in Slovenia, Ljubljana to therapy!!! Ha had streched knee laces !!!!

[KoriEllis]

So Beno is going back to Slovenia? Or he's coming to San Antonio?

[Brodels]

Are there going to be other point guards in camp? It would be nice to see one or two point guards be invited to camp in addition to Tony and Beno. It's even more critical if Beno takes some time to recover.

Barry and Manu can play point guard, but their talents are maximized at shooting guard. Barry is simply going to be a better fit at shooting guard, and we already know that Manu is the same way.

I hope that someone will be invited to camp. A veteran presence like Anderson wouldn't be such a bad thing. I would gladly exchange the open roster position being held for Malone for additional help at point guard.

Beno is injured and unproven. I'm not comfortable with the possibility of Barry being the primary backup all year.

[SLOVENIAN 8]

So Beno is going back to Slovenia? Or he's coming to San Antonio?

For Rasho write that he go to San Antonio but for Beno write that he will came to Slovenia, Ljubljana on therapy!!!!

[KoriEllis]

Thanks Slovenian8. Is Beno's injury diagnosed as a "sprain"?




A veteran presence like Anderson

I think he's signing with the Hawks.

[ChumpDumper]

Here we go again. No solid vet is going to sign up just to get waived when Beno gets better. Think along the lines of Goldie or Darrick Martin again. Where did Perry end up?

[SLOVENIAN 8]

Is Beno's injury diagnosed as a "sprain"?

I don`t know how to tell you!But it is not to serious injury!!!

He had
streched knee laces !!!! if you now what i mean!

I dont know how to tell you in English!!!!

In Slovenian: ima nategnjene kolenske vezi

[KoriEllis]

Strained ligaments I think.

[Slo spurs fan]

:pc2 Finally registered! I tried to post some quotes yesterday already.

[SLOVENIAN 8]

Strained ligaments I think.

Yes!!!! Correct!!! Strained knee ligaments!!!!!:wink

[Slo spurs fan]

He will be able to play in a week or max. two!:wacko :rollin
