re-ins ute the Beno Militia NOW!!

[Obstructed_View]

Did ever miss the part where the Bobcats tried a half ass press, and Beno bounced it off the opponent's foot?


Like I said to Vexler, there is a reason hes called Turnover Beno.


Keep the scared pup chained to the bench thanks.

Beno had two turnovers. On one he committed a charge and the other he came up on a fast break and tried a tough pass into the post from the baseline, which went out of bounds off of a teammate's foot. Which one had anything to do with a press?

Just admit you don't like him no matter what he does, so you don't sound so ignorant trying to disguise your dislike as basketball knowledge. If you had said that his defense was terrible, I would have gone along with you. He's a good shooter, he can handle the ball, he's quick, and he makes good passes. I agree that the Spurs should try to move him if they aren't going to play him, but there'll be a lot of complaining around here when he's starting for someone else and doing well.

People underrate Beno as well. Does anyone remember how well we did last season with Beno as our "ROOKIE" backup? We miss the speed and youth off the bench, period.

This year We should be better than last season, I know we have the same record so far, but we should be better, aside from injuries to Timmy and Manu, our bench isn't running the floor like last year, when we had fast guys like Barry (whom I am getting very frustrated with right now) Devin Brown, and Beno, with a mix of Manu, when He stayed on the floor.

They were fast and and in recent years past, Claxton and so forth. Last year we outran the Suns. Can we do that now? Have we done that to anyone like we were able to last year?

What happened to our easy baskets, fast breaks? Apparently that's what we lost with Van Exel and Finley. I love the guys, but think about it. Now, no Beno, no Devin Brown, no Manu or Barry, no mixture of that group on the floor together as a second unit. They've been replaced by two old men,

Even though it was the weak injured Bobcats, I do ackknowledge that, but we do miss speed and youth off our bench that has been a huge part of our success in the recent past. Maybe Pop should try Beno at point a little more. He's not the ultimate savior, but last night, we saw a big part of what we are missing.

[BigVee]

He looked faster last night. I think he is finally getting his body toned. I was most impressed that he ran away from Felton (or at least stayed ahead of him) when Barry threw the ball up court for him to go get it. His shot is still one of the best on the team.....he can obviously play with the second tier in the NBA, but, can he play against the really good defensive guards?

[GoSpurs21]

against ... the Bobkittens.

since it was the kittens as you say then why didnt NVE have a career game? Since NVE is so dam much better than Beno...

Answer cause NVE is an overrated (mainly by this forum) and over the hill PG, that continues to get burned on defense every game he plays. But you NVE fans keep believing in your delusional dreams.

So who was the jackass that got on Game Night React, gives a shout out to SpursTalk then goes on to make a complete idiot of himself by slamming Beno, the leading scorer last night? You really know your basketball numbnuts. Guess what NVE lover, it wasnt the playoffs last night and we werent playing Denver or Detroit so your lame ass argument doesn't hold up.

[mookie2001]

the beno milita never disbanned is just failed to be well regulated

beno needs mins! I dont see how he could play worse than barry and finley

Someone from Spurs Report?

[ChumpDumper]

Beno in the post game interview:
you ChumpDumper, you know, I ain't gonna go to Austin, you know!!!

If he could do the same against Detroit, there would be no problem. I understand he's your boy, but his problems against teams that don't have the worst record in the league are very real.

I want Beno to get playing time like he did last night. I think that will help his problems that you know he has. Seeing as that Charlotte squad that played last night would have trouble beating the Fort Worth Flyers, I'm sure Beno would get plenty of PT in Austin, and I think it will make him a better player. I don't want Beno to fail like he did last year. I want him to succeed.

I am pretty sure that was TPark. He said in some thread that he had told Vexler on the radio that Beno was the same thing as last season (slow, turnover prone, blah blah).

[ata]

Who cares about TPark. He will flop again and praise Beno. It is just question of time, TPark is fastest flopper around.

[thispego]

who cares if it was "just one agme" or the "bobkittens" it was the first time he had significant playing time all season and he made the most out of every minute. fluke? maybe, but im still going to give credit when credit is due

[Obstructed_View]

It's amazing that the guy turns the ball over a couple of times last year and suddenly "can't handle pressure". I suppose that if somebody misses three shots in a row they should be traded because they "can't make a basket". And under no cir stances should said player be allowed to play in meaningful games to have a chance to improve, because the ability to handle a full court press is something you "can't teach". We should instead run our 36 year old free agent with no cartilage in his knees to go out there and throw lob passes and shoot threes on the break. Good thinkin'. Don't under any cir stances put him in the game with one of the many big guards that can bring the ball up or, I can't belive I'm saying this, work on it in practice.

It was. I heard the call.

[Peter]

Perhaps he helped his trade value a little. Too bad the Spurs don't want any salaries back.

So long, Beno. It's been nice.

[Obstructed_View]

So long, Beno. See ya in the all-star game.

HE WAS ROOKIE LAST ING YEAR!!!
Is this so hard to understand?
Was NVE an all-star caliber player against Hornets, back there when they beat Spurs?

Yes, exactly. Beno had trouble under the full court press those couple of times, all of a sudden people want to try and act like it's always been a problem with him. I call baloney. He got labeled pretty quick on that one. That's just ridiculous. And do people forget he was a "ROOKIE".

I bet we'd have a better record if he got more playing time out there instead
"old knees jack up threes on the break Exel" at point.

Beno is a good shooter, he's pretty fast as shown last night, and has decent court vision and can run the fast break, we need that from our bench, period. I wish Pop all of a sudden inserted him there as the pg backup for Tony, I bet we'd do alot better, he can play Van Exel at shooting gaurd. Then Beno can find him for all the threes he wants to jack up.

I probably should have just posted this here.

Go Beno!

dude it might have been the bobcats but they are still nba players

[Slo spurs fan]

Hey Angel I always wanted to ask you WTF does "Um,Uh...You know... Whoosh! ; )"
mean?

[angel_luv]

It's quotes from my favorite guys:

Timmy with his um uh's.

Beno and his you knows.

Rasho's " Whoosh" from the alamodome celebration.

And the wink is because Gino is always doing that. He also says "unbelieveable!" but I didn't see where it fit. ; )
