This stinks. Now I have to root for the Wolves.
Ugh this is going to make a friend of mine so happy cause now I have to root for his team.
Darn it!
Poor Beno. I hope this trade works out well for him. I'll miss him.
Luke Jackson is available if you want him.
why would you have to root for wolves they are going to cut himQuote:

So basically this is the move Bruno predicted but with Minny instead of Seattle.
If Beno is indeed waived, I'm extremely interested to see where he ends up. Will an NBA team give him a shot? If not, will Beno go to Europe or will he go to the D-League?
I was debating whether to drink today, but this one deserves a toast. I'm proud of this FO right now. They found a way to give someone like Washington a shot.
To give minutes to all the young players they brought in. Why would they want to take minutes away from Brewer and Jefferson for that chump?Quote:

Funny thing is-- if Minnesota waives him then he can still be there tomorrow night to get his ring! :lol :lol Wouldn't put it past him...

Pop said the trade also included perks like: a possible second round pick, and Beno getting the F*CK out of SanAntonio
Beno will go make $500k per overseas for about 3 years. Then ride the bench and collect a minumum contract from the Jeruselam team, get fat, and then be out of basketball altogether. 15 years from now he'll be busting people at the Y and talking mad smack.Quote:

This will be the most popular ST thread of all time.
