My thoughts on the subject are still the same.
10+ minutes = Spurs win.

Beno and Rasho. Go home if they don't like it. Do us all a favor.
NVE at best is a placeholder until Parker can get a blow. It isn't like those ten minutes NVE is having some significant positive impact. In fact when Nick tries to put his imprint on a game it's far more ofetn a negative than a positive. If the Spurs are counting on Van Exel carrying them in any fashion whatsoever, start planning your fishing trip.
In Game 1, he was a lot more than a place holder.
Last night, he wasn't a place holder, either. He ran the team extremely well. Pop commented on it a lot after the game. His time on the floor is when the Spurs built the lead I believe (when Tony was resting and when they were playing side by side).
"until Parker can get a blow"
which is why, with our surfeit of swingmen, I cringe when I see Nick and Tony on the court together.
Is there some magic or advantage to pairing them as PG/SG vs one of them paired with Manu/Michael/Brent as SG?
NVE did what he was suppose to last night. I thought he ran the offense well while Tony was out. I think everyone is expecting a bunch of 3 pointers from him.
beno and nve is when parker needs a blow
usually one of them is on when the other one is off
last game nve and parker in the PLAYING AT SAME TIME WAS EFFECTIVE
had they got kidd that is what pop thought they would do also some
yeah nve is let me down tonight
but parker is hurting
who will we play at pg?
put in bary
I take it back. NVE isn't even a place holder.
Bump.
Spurs were 4-0 when Nick Van Exel played at least ten minutes.
Four and oh.
Um... he finished 3-20 (15%) in the series, with 8 assists and 4 turnovers.
I think we won despite him, not because of him.
They were 4-0 when I drank Miller Lite as well, but that doesn't make my beer drinking the reason for the win. NVE had about as much impact on this series as I did.
Undefeated don't lie? Statistics can always lie. It's just a matter of picking the right stats.
What fool wants to argue this now?
Van Exel should be left off the playoff squadVan Exel should be left off the playoff squadVan Exel should be left off the playoff squadVan Exel should be left off the playoff squadVan Exel should be left off the playoff squadVan Exel should be left off the playoff squad
As sure as Mark Cuban will be handing Steve Javie a big fat envelop in about an hour, Nick Van Exel has played his last game as a Spur.
Nick Van Exel isn't exactly the greatest player since Wilt but got damn Beno sucks horribly. That guy gets blown by on defense like he's a freaking statue.
picnroll is on record as saying Beno is a better defender than Nick. I wonder if he stands by that.
Got damn.

T Park? timvp? Anybody home?
... and don't give me any Beno crap. This ain't about Beno (who still is nowhere near as bad as POS NVE). This is about your boy NVE, his suckage and his waste of a roster spot. Sign a frickin ballboy to a 10 day and send this suckage to Can .
When NVE is on the court, the Spurs are playing 4 vs 5 on defense. He is that invisible.
I am sorry, but Beno cannot possibly do worse than NVE on D. He is at least younger and faster.
It is time to bench NVE to the 12th spot and bring Beno off the bench. Enough said.
If Beno just gives up the FG without adding the and 1 his defense is already miles beyond Nick the Quicksand's.
As bad as Beno's defense is I'm tempted to say van exels is worse.
