    Looks like he may fit with the starters better. I know it was only the Sixers but still looks like he is getting better and better. Then Capela/Dmo off the bench. This allows JBB to run post plays for Dmo without upsetting Dwight.

    On second thought Beas isn't that bad.
    But he still shouldn't start. I'd rather he and KJ take away Brewer's minutes entirely and that eventually Goudelock takes over all of Jet's minutes.

    #1 I predicted, even against the Sixers, that we would be down 31-22 after the 1st. We were down 30-22 not even 30 seconds into the 2nd.

    #2 I predicted this because it has been the trend. We are terrible in the 1st quarter.

    #3 Being terrible in the 1st is an indictment on the starters.

    #4 Who are the untouchables on the starting crew? Bev, Trev, Harden Howard. Leaves the PF spot open.

    #5 Beasley creates problems in the front court. He's best used at the 4 spot.

    #6 Hey... JBB...gotta do something....

    He looks like a corpse. So much purple on his face. All I got. Just another asset.

    The bench needs more of his positive production, hope he can be consistent

    Beasley was obviously signed to sort of be next years Marcus Thornton type spark off the bench on a vet min deal.

    Like Marcus Thornton, I think right now he's going to be best in small doses.

    The thing I like though is it seems as though he's still got a lot of athleticism left in his legs, and looks better defensively than I remember. It was a weird signing to say the least but kudos to Morey taking a low low low risk gamble especially for next year when you get a bargain training camp invite, and this year... Who gives a damn.... Everyone else is sucking right now anyways.

    Beasley running up and down the court, hitting free throws with REBOUNDING talent...if we get Beasley to play like this every night I really don't care if he starts or come off the bench...just think about the games we've lost by 2-5 points this year because the Rox Bench stunk it up because of lack of firepower relying on Harden too much cuz everyone else was bricking shots. Still too early but if this is what we're gonna get from Beasley then the signing looks pretty good so far

    Give him a little time to get acclimated, but maybe.

    Idk either way minutes increased for sure. Thibk he's a capable role player.

    Why has Josh smith been out?. Know he hasent been the greatest but still a good decisive precense

    I don't see why he shouldn't be getting 35 mpg.

    Why wouldn't he have athleticism left in his legs? He just turned 27, hasn't logged many miles and never suffered any serious injuries.
