You guys want him?

We've been after him for a while, but man did he post bad numbers the last few years....

Actually, if he gets his mind right, he can be a good 4 in MDA system. But not sure whether we should risk team chemistry to get him.

He fits MDA's system. whether as a 3 or 4. The biggest difference if beasley did come to LA, is he wouldnt be our go to scorer, like he was when the wolves traded for him and again when the suns got him. Instead, he'd be the first forward off the bench or a 3rd or 4th option in the starting line up. This pickup is the definition of low risk, high reward

I think it is high risk, high reward. The biggest problem of him is if his head is not right, he can do stupid things to harm the team.

I'd jump on it. He could be our starting 4.

lol @ him getting his mind right. He's way past that point now.

he wouldnt have enough importance to the team nor would the team be invested in him to the point where he could hurt the team. unless you mean on the court, then id hope the coaching staff would pull him immediately. but again, off the court, he wouldnt have enough impact to affect a team full of this many veterans.

last time i checked cali still has the best weed, he's all in for LA

Man trust me we dont want this guy in Purp n Gold....

We trade Shaq for LO with multiple strikes. Get the dude a prescription like Snoop. Easy and cheap talent upgrade to start at PF next to Pau

If Phil was here I would take a chance on him but I don't know if MDA can control him.

For the minimum, one year deal. Not guaranteed.

therefore, he'd play even worse for the lakers

Do it

Given everything you know about Michael Beasley... Why on earth would any of you want him on your favorite team?

Because were desperate and having someone on a one year on guarantee deal wouldn't hurt imo.

Having one player with his head up his ass can definitely hurt... This team has a good mojo right now... That's a pretty fragile thing.

He has talent. He has shown to be better than Hill, Harris, Kelly, and a lot of people on the roster. He could start at 4. Odom had the drug issue in his past when we traded Shaq for him, its why the clips let him walk to Miami. He could easily replace Clark as he had a better year than him. He is young, a former lotto pick, and comes dirt cheap as Phoneix will be paying his salary for years to come.

Cali also can just give him a medical marijuana script to stop him from bein suspended and allow him to be functionally high like guys like Snoop

It would mean putting another guy on the roster who can put up 30 in any given game.

We know he is inconsistent and crazy but our roster is pretty weak at the moment.
