Seems like the Heat mostly know how to purchase pre-developed talent, and I'm not knocking that, as the Wizards could use a little of that too.

To summarize: Beal's first two games were terrible. Here are a few players whose first two games were even worse (per minute):
- Corey Maggette
- Josh Smith
- Louis Williams
- Shawn Kemp
- Carmelo Anthony
- Eric Gordon
- Gilbert Arenas
- Tyson Chandler
- Kobe Bryant
- Ersan Ilyasova

I like what you trying to do, but still seem Scapegoat like. this franchise need talent. and its more damaging to a team like this, compared to the rest of those other teams, because the Wizards have the worst record in the history of the NBA, compared to other teams.

He has posted here under the name "pradamaster."
If they had the same style of message board as we do here (as opposed to those "threads") I'd go over there much more, as their content is far better.

Give him 20 games -- hell, make it 10 games -- before starting the hand-wringing about him being a bust.
