Yes, he really is that bad. He never was good. He was the fantasy of fools.

Gortat for Sullinger and whatever

If Gortat's going to Boston, the Bradley has to be the main guy we get in return.

Beasley on his slump: I just need to continue doing what I'm doing...

Great

As they say...

If you're going through hell.... Don't stop.


Basically belching Beasley and giving him 15 minutes is not going to do much.
Team still suck... And Beastley completely kills any chance of getting out of his slump and value hits zero... If not complete negative.

Beastley needs to simply switch from Shooting to attacking the ring... That will increase his field goal by about 15% -20% overnight.

Defensively... Suns need to play zone and switch Beastley away from the Melos, Durants etc of the league.

Play him PF against smaller less talented PFs... Gentry needs to experiment.

Beasley goes to the rim quite often but he is soft and shies away from contact which is why his layup attempts more than often result in an airball. He simply is not a good offensive player if he's not hitting his long-two's. Playing against the reserves of the other teams might help.

When I said attack the rim... It also means drawing contact.
He should get some coaching on how to get contact and still get a shot up.

He is 6'8-6'9... And athletic... It's mental side of things I think.

He isn't a star... But damn... He shouldn't be this bad... He wasn't this bad...

I agree.

Miami traded him for a second round pick (yes, the wanted to sign LeBron and Bosh), Minnesota did not give him his QO and gave up on him. He started playing as a small forward in Minnesota but went to the bench. Rick Adelman couldn't find a spot in his offense for him. His defense has always been bad. So when in his NBA career did he show that he can be a productive player? How does he justife a three-year 18 million deal from our stupid front office. We thought we had a great offseason, I think it has been bad and without any direction behind it, but that's stuff for another discussion.
