Should the Spurs invite Beno to the ring cerimony?

[boutons_]

I have no malice towards Beno.

It's always sad for me with a Spur doesn't work out, even when the failure is due to lack of fire and effort.

[whottt]

Yeah he should come to the ring ceremony.



The fans are coming down on Beno because he didn't play hard, and he turned into a whiner who badmouthed the team and Pop at the end of his career.

You can't do that in SA...

It's not real hard to figure out how to win the SA fans over...

You hustle. That's all you gotta do...doesn't matter what talent you have. If you play hard, you'll win them over.


Just ask Malik Rose...and Avery Johnson.

Beno, did not play hard...he thought talent was enough to get by...even Tim Duncan doesn't rely on talent to get by. Where in the does Beno get off doing that?


And never ever ever, badmouth the team and coach when you've played as poorly and lazily as Beno has...while you are pulling down millions of dollars a year in salary.

I know a lot of people feel sorry for Beno...


But the fact is, he's got 2 rings, he really didn't do much to earn. He's made millions, he's been given lots of chances....and he never took advantage of the opportunity, and then he started the blame game.


And it's not like Pop came down on him harder than anyone...Pop handled him with kid gloves...Pop was easier on him than anyone that I can think of.


Tony Parker is the guy Pop came down on...harder than anyone.

Sorry Beno...it just doesn't fly, you aren't the victim here.


That said...he was part of the team last year so he deserves his ring and banning him from the ceremony would be uncalled for...I'm just glad he's not on the team anymore...

He doesn't deserve to play for the Spurs from this year on after his comments. He does not deserve it.


But the ring was last years business, and he did keep his mouth shut last year, so he might as well participate...

wtf? Beno was lazy?? Beno was a ty. Period. He lacked NBA skills, he lacked everything... ... Beno wasn't lazy, he just plained sucked.

[Horry For 3!]

What time are they doing the ring ceremony? 7 pm CST?

[milkyway21]

why not?

I hope Beno learned his lesson and keep himself motivated to improve his play and be an asset to his new team. It's not the end of the journey for him to play in a team like Minnesota. Who knows he can upped his minutes and stats this yr and earn a second look in the next season or before trading deadline. He got 2 rings with the Spurs. At least he has something to look back to and feel he has accomplished something even if he sat most of the playoffs than play. He played alongside Duncan and the 4-time champs Spurs. That's already an accomplishment. Move forward. Work harder. Show what you got.

I'm sure the Spurs fans incl the haters will be proud if they see you making a name for yourself than fail.

The best would be if he came and then grabbed the mike and blasted the Spurs for keeping him down.

Actually, the best would be to just give Beno his ring in a can . . .

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

I think I heard on KSAT12 News that he won't be able to make it to the game.

[nkdlunch]

he can attend as long as some spur fans can jump him
