Good Riddance.
Europe. I don't think that any GM (in the USA) will sign player with his reputation. A lot can be tolerated, laziness can't be
He might even pull Latrell
The Spurs don't need any insurance against losing Beno. The guy played exactly 0 meaningful minutes last season, and if Washington completely bombs to the point of only being useful for 3 to 5 minutes a regular season game in either garbage time or to finish quarters and give TP extra rest then he'll be pretty much equal to Beno of the last 2 seasons.
Man dont even compare DW to Beno, that guy has a heart.
Anyway, once Vaughan comes back from injury i think he will assume his back up position, but i think Wash, if he picks up the system well and continues to do what hes been doing i think he will eventually get the backup spot. I cant see him taking it in the 2 weeks before Vaughan gets back, i think well see a bit of Manu/Brent at the point along with Wash.
Im just surprised we were able to nab a 2nd rounder for Beno and yet cant get for Scola. Hey Midge will you be attending his going away party?? Im sure he sent you an invite on myspace.
How protected is this second round pick??? Top 40???
Top 56.
i'm so disgusted.. Beno was young, bright, talented
HE WAS THE FUTURE OF THE SPURS
the board... This is the worst news ever in the entire History of this franchise
This is one thread that was more than five pages that I actually wanted to read. I heard the news on the radio on the way home yesterday and said "about time." I didn't know the details until this morning. This is great. I wonder where he'll end up.
Now he has more time to make myspace slideshows.![]()
How the did I miss this... Z YEAH!!!
A "protected" 2nd round pick??? I've never even heard of that.
Is this a "Leave Britney alone moment"![]()

idk if this is possible but what about FLIGHT WHITE???

Thought you all would enjoy this read. I know how you feel about the source.
Obviously: Udrih Deserves a Shot
http://www.hoopsworld.com/Story.asp?story_id=5839Beno Udrih never quite got with the system. That much is true. On top of it, he never quite connected with Gregg Popovich. On more than one occasion Beno told us that he didn't understand his situation at all. If he had a good game he got benched. If he played like crap he'd get more minutes. Then he wouldn't play at all for a while. Popovich is quirky, and not everyone makes it as a Spur. That was the case with Beno. When Darius Washington stepped in after Beno injured his hand it was the beginning of the end for Beno in San Antonio...
What about Sacramento? Wouldn't that be interesting? The Kings need a point guard and Beno needs a second chance with a team that will give him plenty of playing time. Chauncey Billups recently told me that the reason he found a home in Detroit was because he got guaranteed minutes no matter how many mistakes he made. He didn't have to look over his shoulder to see if the coach was preparing his subs ute. Perhaps Beno would benefit from exactly the same kind of situation.
I'm not suggesting that Beno has a little Chauncey inside him ready to bust out, but it's also not completely out of the questions. The Kings might have just the right situation for a player looking to prove he can make it in the NBA.
Beno might be just the player who could benefit from that situation...
Udrih has to realize he's squandering the chance of a lifetime. Perhaps getting cut and realizing there's no market for him will finally make him grow up. There's no denying that he has NBA talent; even starting-level talent. My best guess is that he won't give a , he'll make lots of excuses, and head back to Europe and badmouth the NBA to anyone who's willing to listen.
He hung around way too long. Guess they couldn't find anyone to unload him on until now....Good riddance !
Beno deserves to go play in the Shanghi third division.
This is where you come in and say PSYCHE!!!!i'm so disgusted.. Beno was young, bright, talented
HE WAS THE FUTURE OF THE SPURS

Hoopsworld, it's the New York Times of sports journalism!!
I wish Beno Luck. I thought the kid had talent but if you don't work hard it's just a waste. Sad.
