Hell yeah. I'd be 25 times more comfortable with The Custodian than with B-Easy. I didn't mind him the 1st time around but I don't really miss him and his chucking ways.

I'd prefer to start Hummel than bring Beasley back.

No thanks. He's worn out his NBA welcome at this point I think. AR-15 on the other hand...

I'll bet you AR is a rotation player in the NBA by this time next year.

I hear he's put on another 15 pounds of muscle too.

Agree with Krap. Let's get AR here and let him start/put up big numbers.

It would be a great feat to somehow make us worse on the defensive end, However bringing Beasley back in we would be able to accomplish it

He just doesn't get how to play Winning Basketball. Most NBA players over in China could score 55 points in a Showcase game.

His team is pretty much out of the finals


Being able to score doesn't make you a great NBA player, most players can score. It's the freaking premier league of the world,

Sory but I think that Michael Beasley is much more talented than any tall guy in our roster.
I don't understand how can anyone prefer Young or Bennet to Beasley.
The guys in our front line cannot score personal baskets. They wait the ball to come to them under the basket.
I watched the last game against Hornets and what I saw was that the most players have no talent(except Wiggins,Lavine and Williams)
This team needs many talented players to become competitive.

Beasley is a big scorer, he is athletic,talented and FREE.
If he smokes Marijuana i dont care if he can score 15-20 ppg and grabs 7-8 rebounds.
This is my opinion

PS
Sory for my english, I am trying to get better.. :)

He can score, but he does so while being a detriment to the team. Think a poor mans Nick Young, with worse defense. His lack of professionalism rubs off on young players and sets a bad example.

Because the choice isn't bewteen having either Bennett or Thad and Beasley. There's literally dozens of options for the Wolves that are better then any of the mentioned. You probably aren't good if you have any of those guys on your team

I would even prefer Hummel to Beasley every time. Hummel is not talented nba player, but he does all all the right things on the floor in order the team to be successful. Beasley is above avarage nba scorer with terrible energy/understanding of team concept/understanding team defence/man-to-man defence/off-court antics so has no place in the NBA.

My opinion is that he could have been an amazing addition to our roster without much money and I have said that two months ago.
I also believe that he currently is the most talented pf in the nba after Anthony Davis and Carmelo Anthony.
All these years I don't understand the people who hate him and I don't understand how no nba team offered him a contract this summer.

The Miami Heat were very clever and very lucky the previous month. They got 3 offensive dynamites Tyler Johnson, Dragic and Beasley and they will be a very competitive team in play offs.

I was and still am a huge fan of Mike Beasley, but by bringing Garnett back the direction of the team is clear. Management feels we have the talent in place and are going to develop it correctly. Supercool has no role here, we need to get Payne and Dieng minutes and add a big in the draft.

I accept the idea, now Bazz is a serious person and every team need a azzhole in his roster.

While I've always thought Beasley had talent and have rooted for him, you have to learn to restrict your hopes on him as many have done, especially in regards to the wolves. 1st, why would he come here for the minimum salary and be the starter, that doesn't make sense for either party. He doesn't fit our young mold and can't even play a Cris Carter recovery role to our guys because our group isn't troubled and well, Beasley still is.

Also, if you want to get your opinion respectfully heard, don't go saying I told you so after he gets a 10 day contract and puts up some stats in a front court last night where they didn't have Bosh nor Whiteside and played the Kings. I agree he looks like he can still play and contribute in the league, but does he look like the best pf behind AD and melo (who doesn't play pf)? That shouldn't have to be answered

Shabazz Muhammed is everything we wanted Beasley to be like. I'll pass and address bigger issues.

You wanted Beasley to be a 6'6 PF? Shabazz needs to learn to play the 2 he'll kill the Wolves if they ever make the playoffs because teams will attack Shabazz all day at that size.

I like Beasley, but I just don't see him putting it together as an NBA player. He doesn't have the mental focus to handle the schedule anf become the player he should have.

Wolves don't need players with a lack of BBIQ and drive.

Shabazz is a SF, and my point was rhetorical. Go troll somewhere else.
