radosoft is...
better then rose:p
does beno have nba 3pt range?
I'd be happy with a consistent mid-range jumper from Beno for pick-and-rolls and pick-and-pops.
No.does beno have nba 3pt range?
He has an awesome mid-range jumper. He's also not afraid to drive.
to Tommyradosoft is...
what Malik Rose is to Aggie.
Once again Marcus Cryant, answer the question,
who could they have gotten for the same amount of money that is better.
Name me a center making the same amount of money that is better.
:A
Would a PG have a lesser chance of making it to the NBA if they had an excellent Mid Range Jumper but, didn't have a good 3pt shot?
No, not really, E20. Distributing the ball, entering the offense, taking care of the ball are more important requirements of an NBA PG.Would a PG have a lesser chance of making it to the NBA if they had an excellent Mid Range Jumper but, didn't have a good 3pt shot?
Look at the top 10 PGs currently playing in the NBA.
Jason Kidd shoots 32% from downtown (career). Likewise with Tony Parker. Starbury is a career 31% 3-pt shooter and Steve Francis is a little higher at 34% (29% last season, however). Those are 4 of the top 10 PGs. Need more data?
Just what I wanted to know thanks, D.
players with excellent midrange jumpers don't grow on trees....
lots more to consider though. can the pg run the team, play D, limit turnovers? if so, he has just as good a shot as anyone....
with TD on the floor though, the long range bombers are obviously an assett...
i agree that if beno has a solid midrange game, that would be spectacular....comparisons to speedy come to mind....
but i think we need another long range bomber, and i'm looking for a ray of sunshine wherever i can find it....
I looked at this one time before on PGs who have developed into a good 3-pt shooter over the years and one guy proves that a player CAN develop with effort and the proper environment into a more complete player. Special emphasis on the proper environment/team.

What if Udrih is just as (or perhaps close to being) as good as Parker?
Good times, as someone who used to post here once said.
Good talk.
T Fark,
He sucks.
-TD
You also can't forget, this kid is 6'4!
In the summer league games, he was walking next to Devin and they looked to be the same height.
I can't wait for the season to start. We stacked and ready to abuse this league!
He sucks.
Thats intelligent.
Good talk John Fin Kerry.
It's odd that Solid D brought up Sam Cassell. That is who Beno reminded me of during summer league. He has that automatic midrange shot and is deadly on the top of the key pick-and-roll.
The thing that worries me about Beno is whether he is tough enough for the NBA. He had a lot of small injuries in summer league and had a rep in Europe that he couldn't play through injuries.
If he can survive training camp and preseason without getting banged up, he'll have a good season.
Sounds like Udrih has some of that trademark Slovenian toughness we have come to know and love.
So what you're saying is that Beno is a white Speedy. Is he gonna demand a trade to Golden State so he can be the starter?![]()
jr
In the one Summer League game I watched, timvp, Beno actually reminded me of a quicker and more skilled Kevin Pritchard. I mentioned Sam because he's always had the mid-range game (like a magnet).
Hey Tommy,

Sincerely,
Slovenia
A white Speedy?
Beno can shoot.
Midrange jumper?
WTF is that? The NBA is not the Olympics. You either have an inside game or you shoot it from the 3 point line. Point guards don't get points from the midrange.
The Spurs need guards that can shoot the 3 to keep the defense from sagging on Tim. This was the problem in the playoffs and the problem with having Avery Johnson and Anthony Carter as a point guard.
Beno sucks.
