He’s a good guy – he’s just really lost. So, “toxic” is an interesting word to use, unless its in context to the on-court play. Then yes, I totally agree.

@AndyJ0seph @careystephen No doubt. Not sure you need a source to say Beasley has been toxic. It has been evident in play, demeanor & talk.

You ever work with a person who’s got a nice personality, easy to get along with, they seem like they’re sort of putting effort in, but they just aren’t getting the job done, and you always find yourself picking up their slack and trying to fix their F ups?

You don’t hate them, really, but it gets old having to cover for them constantly. I’d guess that’s what it’s like to have Beasley as a teammate.

@az_deuce If I knew of major changes, I would certainly report it.

@az_deuce It said "could lead" to major changes. It's possible, just like the opposite. Powell is a quality writer who knows the NBA well.

@careystephen "could lead to major changes" is a very safe possibility to mention after 7 losses in a row. It's all possible at this stage.

Interesting comments by Babby via Kristofer Habbas
Babby would not quantify the teams interest level in making a move, but one thing he did state is that he does not want to wait until the trade deadline to make a move. The team would prefer to pull the trigger on a move sooner if there is a trade to make. The team is listening to inquiries and making calls however to gauge interest in potential moves with the current assets they have.

I always thought it was a stinker of a deal. Once again, we were essentially bidding against ourselves since nobody else had put their hands up to sign him.

Where was this aggressiveness when we could have made a deal with OKC for Harden?
