i remember him saying it during the sacramento series.
I watched the game on TNT today (tivo-ed it). Marv Albert said Van Exel is retiring after this season.
Am I the only one that didn't know that?

I must have totally missed that, then lol.
I think he already retired.
Actually, he retired a couple of years ago. He just still gets a paycheck.
he will get a ring first
Van Exel did mention in the playoffs that this will be his last season.
who is this Van Exel you speak of?
I am not a NVE fan necessarily. I am a Popovich fan. I know that he wants to win more than anything else, for the team, for you, for me. If he plays NVE, he does it because he has confidence in him. I'd like to see Nick hit 4 or 5 threes in a game to shut everyone up. He is experienced and, like Pop, I believe he will still show us in a game why Pop signed him. He has made some shots that are comparable to Dirk's. I've seen them, right here from my living room.
Have faith. Too many of you guys are serious doubters who claim to know more than our team's leaders. Then when we win, as we are doing now, you completely change your tunes. Some of you are truly fickle.
another uninfomred stupid comment from elpimpo, guess we shouldn't be surprised.
Van Exel's defense, the way he ran the team was fantastic last night.
He was better than Tony Parker.
But of course, Turnover Beno was much better with that pussified attempt at drawing a foul at the end of the second....
Van Excel and Finley were a package deal. Pop knew what he was doing. Unfortunately he still has more faith in NVE than Beno but that hasn't hurt us yet.
miss the game last night?Unfortunately he still has more faith in NVE than Beno
nope. +/- worked out.
I wish we could get Speedy back
So you did missed Van Exel playing well and Beno failing to even catch the ball, let alone get it past half court now?nope. +/- worked out.
Oh yeah, Daniels didn't touch Beno at all though, not even a little bit.
Get real T Park, NVE sucks ass.
Thank god he is retiring.

now Beno fans are going for "Bad refs" to back him up.
Last night he didn't.Get real T Park, NVE sucks ass.
But of course, you couldn';t see that through the red in your eyes.
uhhhh...TPark
Beno played all of 19 seconds last night.
If you want to compare that with Van Excels 14+ minutes and 2-2-1 Beno smackdown then feel free to continue but at least have the honesty to admit that the sample on one side is pretty small.
If I had to give either one of them a chance to hit a game winner? NVE would get it. He's clutch, and no he hasn't been great for us, BUT HE'S OLD. And he did play well last night, he missed one shot-BIG WHOOP. I would have rather him played than Tony. He choked.
?
Van X played great last night with Tony out. He didn't score, except for that nice crossover, but he ran the offense well and didn't make stupid decisions.
In addition, what NVE actually did for the offense was space the floor better. The Mavs stayed out on Nick, whereas with TP, they sagged more since his shot was not on. Timmy had less room in the lane to make his move across the lane on Dampier with TP in there...for example.
his defense was also quite good too.
and damn near surrendered a 3 pointer.uhhhh...TPark
Beno played all of 19 seconds last night.
Man, had Van Exel done that, you guys wouldve had 50 threads just ripping his ass.
Guess it is true what Sparky says about SA and their love for the white boys.
NVE makes the worst decisions, it's as if he never played in the NBA before, yet he's a veteran.
I love how the guy dribbles to half court, stops and picks up his dribble with one foot over and the other behind the half court line, and gets trapped like a moron. He always does that can be avoided so easily, and he looks like he's had too much caffeine. He's always shaking for no reason and his passes to TD such.
TPark, I am no Beno booster but 19 seconds is not a reasonable sample. I could find 19 seconds of Duncans game last night that would justify you screaming for a trade for Darko straight up.
