HEAT fan.

No offense, but saying Beasley ahs attitude problems is complete ignorance.

Yes, he was a punk in college, but now, he grew, that was the main reason last June on debates on whether Beasley is matured enough to be a pro.

Also the reason why Beasley is only being played like 12-13 mins at times, and 20 mins is becoz Spoelstra is making him earn PT by playing D, yes he's still not that much good at it, BUT HE IMPROVED IT ALSO ALOT, and I gotta give propos to Spo for makng him work hard.

But haha im sorry, but I wouldnt even take this offer seriously, Love is good, though, and I hope he still continues to get better.

Actually, Beasley wasn't a punk in college - he was well liked on his team and by the fans. There were hints of an issue during the rookie initiation thing - but he wasn't ever accused of anything by the NBA.

I think it is universally accepted by unbias people that Beasley is an attitude concern. he was in HS, he was in college, he was in the rookie initiation thing and he likely will continue that way. That is a concern for me.

Sure, but it has been overstated. He got into some trouble in highschool by doing things like signing his name on the headmasters car, and he was kicked out of school. I think he was smoking weed with Chalmers during the rookie initiation that you guys are talking about but that's about it.

I remember before the draft Beasley was speaking with Riles and asked Him the question... Is there good Cuban food in Miami? Riles responded Beasley you dont need to worry about the food. I dont think Riley was that excited about drafting Beasley but he would have got crushed from the fans if he didnt.

Beasley wont improve, hes too arogant. Love is a hard worker on top of the fact he has great physical tools

In order for Beasley to come near his potential he needs to make the transition to the SF full time. He needs to focus on being a consistent defensive player and take his offensive skills serious. I just have doubts he is going to do this.
