    Yeah, that's why he bought a house in San Antonio and why everything he's said has indicated that he wants to be the backup PG in San Antonio.
    Beno bought that house before the Spurs even signed NVE. He thought after his Rookie Year that things would work out differently with the Spurs than they have. Plus, he likes San Antonio, and has the money, so why not. He has even said he would keep his house in San Antonio if he got traded.

    The issue is about his place on the Spurs and perceptions about eventual trades. Malik saw it coming- we all did. Malik's "personality" as a Spur changed because of it. I'm not excusing it- I am merely explaining it. Subconsciously, I don't think Beno expected to be on the Spurs by the end of February. How much fun is it day in and day out with someone who doesn't want you there. Kind of like living with your spouse after they already hired the divorce lawyer.

    ploto stop making excuses for Beno, and yes you are making excuses:

    If beno is a little sensitive who gets affected like this, he does not belong in the Spurs. Up to now it's all Beno's fault that Beno's been sucking all year. He either gets better or goes back to Europe to work as a taxi driver.

    The Spurs want Beno to be the backup ... and everyone knows that, including Beno.
    Then why have the Spurs tried to trade Beno the past 2 summers?

    Beno must have one dumb subconscious then. The Spurs brought in Jacque Vaughn to compete with him this year. The Spurs made it obvious that Beno was going to be the backup point guard this year. Crystal clear.

    Pop has given him chance after chance after chance this year. If Beno was just playing par basketball, he'd still be the backup. The only reason he lost the backup job is because he's been horrible this year.

    The Spurs can't baby Beno forever. Eventually he has to play decent to earn minutes.

    Uh, the Spurs talk about trading everyone on the team outside of the big three. Unless you expect Beno to be part of the big four, then you shouldn't be too surprised.

    99% of the players in the NBA are talked about in trades throughout the year. It's part of the business.

    People are misinterpreting me. I am not saying that Beno is some wilting, sensitive flower all hurt by trade speculation... I am saying quite the opposite. People on here talk about him playing withtout confidence, but I don't think Beno has a confidence problem at all.

    Then you are saying Beno has just given up and is sucking on purpose as he waits to be traded?

    I wouldn't go that far- but Beno certainly isn't doing much of anything to put an end to the suckiness.

    So it's self-imposed suckage?

    I don't think you are giving him enough credit. I think he wants to play well ... he just isn't at this point.

    If Beno or Vaughn starts actually performing, I like our chances of winning a le.

    Doubt either happens though. But Vaughn is fast and might be the solution, if Beno keeps getting stripped and clanking 18 footers.
