Beno is not very good.

I said the Spurs won the NBA Championship with TP and Beno. That the Spurs got 3.7 ppg and 1.0 apg from Beno during the playoffs and 5.9 ppg and 1.9 apg regular season. That Beno was a rookie who was learning the intricacies of the NBA game and it's physical style. That Beno was an excellent passer and playmaker, one of the best passers on the team, and that he knows the angles. He also gets the ball upcourt on the break via the pass as well as anyone does. He was still a rookie and yes he got caught in a buzzsaw with the Lindsey Hunter/Rasheed Wallace double teams but he will learn. The Spurs made the right adjustments to the special Pistons' pressure by letting Manu and Brent enter the offense.

The Spurs cannot afford Earl Watson, one of the better crunch-time PGs in the league, and they probably won't trade Beno for him, so let Beno learn and bring in a 3rd PG like Wilks or Barrett or the FA rookie John Lucas III for practices and injury backup.

Remember Beno played basically the entire 4th quarter and OT of the win in PHX against Steve Nash and played very well.

Dude you do know that 03 was Tony's second season right. I mean Tony's rookie year he schooled (I mean schooled - for GW) Gary Payton in the 1st round before the Lakers knocked the Spurs out of the playoffs 4-1 in the second round.

Manu was a rookie in the 03 campaign.
