    Sorry but the title to the article above is "Michael Beasley bound to cool down".

    I dunno man, Bosh would've been our go to guy. No pressure what so ever, we didn't make the playoffs mast year.. This would've been his team. I think he would've continued to be a 20 10 guy.

    Beasley has a sick offensive game, no doubt.

    some players are just naturally gifted... beasley is one of them.

    i think he was capable of scoring like this in his rookie year but he didn't get enough touches or the green lights in miami.

    B Eazy doing BIG things up North. He and Love form the filthiest forward tandem out West.

    Potential lineup in Minny next season:

    Ricky Rubio/Jonny Flynn
    Wesley Johnson/Wayne Ellington
    Mike Beasley/Corey Brewer
    Kevin Love
    Enes Kanter (draft)

    The problem in Miami was between Beasley's ears. He got enough touches. He crashed and burned so many times when given the opportunity in his two years there it wasn't funny. People who say it was because Wade "dominated the ball" have no idea what they are talking about.

    I'm still not convinced Beasley isn't a complete flake. If he was put in a pressure situation on a championship contender where he was counted on to produce every night, I don't believe Beasley would be up to the task. He'll do great playing on a nobody franchise when nobody is watching and nobody cares. The "pressure" jumper he hit tonight with the game on the line was sweet, but whoop dee doo.

    It's funny how so many here cut guys like Chris Bosh and Vince Carter no slack at all but heap praise on Beasley. Makes no sense.

    Sounds like they're describing Glenn Robinson.

    In hindsight it looks like this the offseason trade we should have made. What happened to Morey's wizard powers? He should have seen that one coming a mile away and pounced.

    Well its about time. I will never know why defensive minded coaches like the one in Miami, JVG and Larry Brown etc. have a hard time using offensive talents like B easy. I always knew he would have a hard time playing with the Heat.
    I saw him play in Houston the other week. Man he moves like a guard. Good thing I have him on my fantasy time. I was to cut him before his 40 games performance.

    Beasley is the type of player that puts up huge numbers on a bad team, but can't do **** on a decent team or a contender.

    I uhh was telling you guys about this guy's potential. Imagine if the Rockets picked him over Lee! We'd have a person that isn't afraid to score. But as usual the hate on this board goes all the way, but when they're proven wrong they just have a hard time accepting it.

    Imagine if it wasn't already shown how the Rockets couldn't just "pick" Beasley.

    They had to trade for him and Miami wanted NO salary back.
