I like him. Sure he'll do at least 3 maddening things a game, but he's an all star caliber scorer.

He seems like a good teammate too.

Want to see more Frank-Guard-McD-KP-Beasley. Work out those rotations Jeff. KP can steal 6 minutes at game at C from Kanter and KOQ

In small doses he's an effective player. He can also be a negative. Like fouling out in 9 minutes. Horrible games are not that rare. He's a good bench guy to have but, you can't rely on him for too much. He needs a short leash. I like him though.

How many threada does he get this year? Over/under a dozen?

He's really efficient off the bench, and he does some good stuff in only a few minutes. My mind is changing with this guy. Kind of falling into McGee, JR Smith, Nick Young type of rep...no matter how much he does, it's gonna be super hard to change his rep.

I could care less about his rep so long as he's doing things the right way here, which for the most part he has. Yeah, we might see a couple boneheaded plays a game. But at the end of the game, if he's putting up a point/minute, rebounding, contesting shots and passing I don't what there isn't to like.

And if he get's into his groove, forget it. He'll wreak havoc.

He's putting up 23 ppg and 9.5 rpg per 36 while shooting 54% (2-point) and 37% (3-point).

Who cares about his reputation.....that isn't the player that is scoring 20 plus pts and 10 rebs a game right now for the Knicks....I see some idiot saying he only wants his 20/10 in small doses.....Beasley is in his prime years and it looks like it ...Knick fans want to lose if they don't want this version of Beasley.

If Beas is out there it should probably be Lee

He's always been an amazing scorer. Dude's offensive game always ben similar to Melo. Difference is he's a better finisher and truth be told he"s a smarter scorer. His career turned out how Melo's would've went had he got drafted by the Pistons. He's easily our best offensive player BY FAR.

I'd give dude 3 yrs./ 21-24 mill. Over that he can walk. Entice him with stability. If he wants more $ some team will probably be willing to pay him 10-12 per for 1-2 years. Another thing to note this offseason, is there aren't a lot of teams with $ to spend which is why I think Kanter opts in and then waits for next year to get paid.

Beasley seems like a great teammate and has really accepted his role. Has provided some entertainment and has been good. I have become a fan.

Wonder if any playoff teams would be interested? I would still sell him off for a 2nd. Buisness first

I would pass on Beasley for 3 years. He will be 30. 1 or 2 years for the right price, maybe depending on other options.

Poor Beaser needs a home where he feels loved and wanted. He's like some orphan wandering around the league looking for his family. From a moral standpoint, we have to do this.

I'm intrigued by him as a sixth man. But ultimately I think this ends up like purple drank and Copeland. Knicks probably won't wanna put a big investment on a sixth man.
