If Beck can't maintain his own dribble in Summer League, he has no shot at making it on the Spurs.
Only saw him during summer league. Seemed to be a bit turnover-prone and was a terrible ball-handler.
I agree with Coyotes_Geek. He would be a good candidate for Austin this year, but he's not ready for prime time. He needs quite a bit more seasoning.
Beck has a lot to add to his game in order to make it in the NBA and he's already 27. I think Europe is his peak.
but that was a sick crossover on kobe ..
It is a 15th man. What the heck do you guys expect?
he could be 15th man... on the toros. maybe.
I dont really like beck's defense, he gave a wide open layup to the other M.Williams to win that game.
I like JAck, he plays nice defense and is a pure shooter. I know that he played poorly in summer league, but the spurs did not run any plays for him and he had to take contested 3s. If he plays along side duncan he's going to have many open 3s.
Project? Veteran in case of injures? Open so we can sign someone mid season? Gist? I could go on forever.
wow a youtube
please post more videos of beck i dont know where to find any videos of him!
What in god's name is Bill Walton talking about in this video.
Given D-legaue rules, having Beck in Austin without him taking a roster spot with Spurs is nearly impossible.
I'm quite sure Spurs can do way better than Beck if they want to fill their roster. Last year, Spurs picked Desmon Farmer over Hairston. It was a mistake even if there were no consequences because Spurs have kept Hairston at the end. Keeping Beck over a player like McClinton would likely be a similar mistake and there could have consequences this time.
He is said to already be with Hapoel Jerusalem. Not exactly a high level club.
he will never be a pro in NBA.
Romel Beck sighting. He and his mad handles are headed to Houston.

Rockets Sign Romel Beck
Sep 30, 2009 12:17 PM EST
The Rockets reached agreement with Romel Beck, a 6-8 guard/forward who has starred with the Mexican National team.
Beck played at UNLV and professionally in Italy before a stint in the Mexican League. He spent one season in the NBA Development League and played with the San Antonio Spurs summer league team.
The Rockets began camp short-handed after the team chose not to sign Rashad McCants because of an abdominal injury. Shane Battier left Tuesday’s evening practice with a hamstring pull, though the injury is not considered serious.

Should be a nice 3 week vacation.
Passed over Rashad McCants for him.
Man, Rashad McCants has fallen WAYYY off...
He has skills he just has a piss poor at ude. Much like Ron Mercer did during his last 4 years in the league.

No kidding. That's a pretty good sign that McCants might want to start thinking about his next career.
I heard somewhere that he was exiled from Mexico's last few games due to poor at ude and me first playing. I could be mistaking him for someone else.
Wasn't he also the one that started a huge brawl during a recent game?
Yeah, I read the same thing too.
Here's the Mexico Uruguay brawl with Romel Beck as the prime instigator:
His at ude was detrimental to the team and the reason why he was expelled from the national team... that said, he wasn't solely responsible for that brawl... the Uruguayans were provoking him with racial slurs.
You mean a Latino (Hispanic or whatever you prefer) was insulting another one with racial slurs? Oh wait, isn't Uruguay the country that brags about how they killed almost all of their Native Americans and ethnically they are European?
