OT: Michael Beasley...Can I get a TO?

MIAMI (AP)—Michael Beasley’s first official practice with the Miami Heat ended
quickly.
Beasley was struck in the chest by an inadvertent elbow during a defensive
drill about 45 minutes into Miami’s first summer-league workout session
Wednesday, and the No. 2 overall pick in last week’s NBA draft was taken to a
doctor for observation.
Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said the move was strictly precautionary and
should not affect Beasley’s availability for Miami’s five-games-in-five-days run
through the Orlando summer league, which opens Monday.
“He took a shot to the chest,” Spoelstra said. “He probably could have
finished if it was the regular season or something like that, but we just wanted
to be safe.”

Hehe..."Mommy"

The NBA Draft & the NFL Draft I get pretty wrapped up in. I post on this
RealGM message board, I play in a few fantasy leagues, I play in an NBA Live League,
where ranking players is prominant, just gets me wrapped up in it all, who's better
than who, trade value, re-signing players, renouncing rights, etc. Watch out Mitchie! .

The Lakers draft for the first time in a long time was anti-climactic.
I was real excited for Love & Westbrook after bandwagonning UCLA this year
after my DUKIES got bounced too early in the tourney. As far as Beasley, he's
an excellent player, but his shady height to true height got me going, and his
lax attitude put me over, I hope he proves me wrong. Oww, coach he fouled me!
