is it that time to call him a bust? Compared to the top 5 picks,kevin love,derrick rose,russel westbrook,oj mayo Id say he's the worst.

Subject: Re: Is michael beasley a bust? Wed Nov 03, 2010 1:53 pm

No,i would not call him a bust.He will be good

Subject: Re: Is michael beasley a bust? Wed Nov 03, 2010 1:57 pm

This current season will say.

Subject: Re: Is michael beasley a bust? Wed Nov 03, 2010 2:07 pm

I wouldn't call him a bust. Too early to say, and his numbers have been decent so far in his young career. Even if he's 5th out of the top 5 picks, that doesn't make him a bust by default.

Maybe too early. But even if you compare him to the top 10...he's 8..atleast.

Subject: Re: Is michael beasley a bust? Wed Nov 03, 2010 2:36 pm

For the 2nd pick in the draft, averaging 14/6 isn't all too good...but in no way is he a bust.

Wilson Chandler is better than Michael Beasley I have spoken!!!

I'm just happy that Walsh and management said no! no! no! in packaging Ill Will to Portland for Rudy Fernandez that would've sucked so hard...

I think they're about even...

Nah. Not a bust.

The problem with Beasley is mental, not skill based.

He needs to grow up and take the game seriously. Plus he needs to adapt and convert his game to SF. He was a PF in college and obviously he can't play that position in the NBA. Too short and not a banger in the paint.

He has a ton of talent. He needs a real coach that'll help him become a better player.

Needs a better support system like Nick said.
A coach that will show him his potential and constantly encourage him; because of his mental health issues...he'll prolly require a little more strength-building for him to believe in himself...and therefore, enabling him to play to his potential.

If he has another shitty year, then yes I would consider him a bust. Just imagine if the Heat had drafted Westbrook, Mayo, or Love...

Subject: Re: Is michael beasley a bust? Wed Nov 17, 2010 10:31 pm

He's been playing VERY well lately... averaging like 30ppg over the last few games... Beasley is NOT a bust. And I like his hair style lol.

Who's 9?

He's playing well...

Subject: Re: Is michael beasley a bust? Thu Nov 18, 2010 2:18 pm

He's averaging 22 and 5 so far, and is becoming the first option on offense. He was the 2nd pick in the draft, so maybe a leadership role is all he needed..him and Love will be a beast SF/PF combo if he doesn't get himself traded

Unfortuntely, the PG SG and C...suck. Ridnour is alright I guess. If they get a stronger bench and start Wes Johnson at SG, that could be great.

Subject: Re: Is michael beasley a bust? Thu Nov 18, 2010 2:30 pm

Flynn is coming back next week and rubio next season...so the pg position is bright

Subject: Re: Is michael beasley a bust? Thu Nov 18, 2010 2:43 pm

Did you guys see his game winner vs the Clippers last night? Damn you Beasley we could have won that game. Sad

Is Beasley playing SF?

Subject: Re: Is michael beasley a bust? Fri Nov 19, 2010 7:59 am

Yup!

Ridnour, some scrub, Beasley, Love, Millicic

Subject: Re: Is michael beasley a bust? Wed Jan 05, 2011 2:59 am

He's the MIP in the NBA this season in my opinion

Mike just needed a system that actually wanted to build around him, and now he has that in Minnesota

Ha! Minnie isn't going to build around him. He's just a good player on a shitty team. He is the most accomplished scorer on that roster.
