He looked pretty damn good against the Suns yesterday.

EVERYONE looks pretty damn good against the Suns.

how does Babby get off completely scot-free, here? is it just because he's still part of the organization and it's just easier to blame the guy who left?

100% agree. If your team continues to struggle and the FO continues to makes mistakes.....you have to look at the constants. So far Babby is still here (he should have been fired IMO with Blanks). If you have 100% turnover and FO after FO fails....you look to the last constant...the owner.

EVERYONE looks pretty damn good against the Suns.

It seem every other game we are making some player look much better than they are.

Beasley was the right signing anyway. He was medium risk and high reward. He did not pan out, but we lost nothing really by trying.

If he turned the corner like Hassan Whiteside did we would look like geniuses.

As long as the Suns do not have a playoff team and no franchise player they need to try for high potential guys and hope one reaches his potential.

Please. I think I could have scored 20 on that defense, and I'm 5'10 with bad knees.

Exactly. Everyone was just standing there.

Part of the problem with Beasley was we didn't just let him on the bus, we gave him the keys to it. Also, we brought him into a locker room that wasn't established and had very little leadership. It was the wrong place for him. Maybe there is no right place for him but we were about the worst destination for that guy.

He is a terrible NBA player. There is no scenario where bringing in a terrible player is the right move, especially on 3 year 8 figure contract.

Yea Tyler Johnson or whoever the young SF for Miami was had a career game as well.

Can't imagine the Heat are too excited about this

Assuming (yeah, HUGE assumption) that Beasley is all grown up now, Beasley mentoring Whiteside makes sense. Guy with bad reputation that almost cost him his career (if it weren't for Blanks, he would have never had a nice post-rookie contract) can relate and explain why he (Whiteside) doesn;t want to be "that guy."

I don't think Beasley is a grown up now, BUT he seems to be doing a good job in Miami, being a model citizen, so who knows.
