I'm not sure we have a second best player this season (I'm excluding Middleton due to his injury)

Our problem is defense mainly then scoring.Beasley doesn't provide anything more than scoring and even that is inconsistent. having couple of high scoring nights doesnt make you the second best player.
Feel free to offer up who the second best player has been this season
Jabari, Monroe, Brogdon ? All these have been better than Beasley this season. Then you can argue Snell,Thon Beasley and the rest.
Well there's a whole bunch of what you hate about Beasley in those guys as well. But it's not worth the argument. I'll gladly agree to disagree.

Sparky is a Bucks fan, but he's a really dumb Bucks fan. He gets excited over "name" players and lacks the understanding of how to win in today's NBA.
So you're saying he would fit right in on this forum.

Well, we kind of lucked out that Kidd use to Bang Wades wife, or we likely would have his unmovable contract on our team. We lucked out on that.

Im not hating Beasley, i hate us glorifying mediocre/bad players and the sign them for a good contract, we did it with Henson, we did with Pumlee and so on.
Jabari and Monroe are providing much more on the court than Beasley does and are more efficient on night to night basis.
We are a team that got a superstar and tried to make a contender, you cannot contend nothing with the players we have.

If the team still cares about making a run at the playoffs they need to fire Kidd tomorrow. It just hasn't worked.

I think it's completely unfair to Monroe and Jabari to put them on the same tier as Beasley as far as the whole season to this point goes.

Man 3 years ago we needed a PG and a C,now with happened to Jabari we maybe need and a PF and we our out of money,we all here say what Bucks can do ,who they must trade,so what?anything changed?,i prefered the players last year or the players the year before more than this year players,even if they were not better at least we were paying for them nothing compare to this year team.
You are giving 20mil on delly and telly and that's the only difference.
And that 6mil on hawes. 26mil total, easily tradeable imo because these guys have value to some teams.
Snell, beasley, brogdon, maker, jabari, terry, vaughn don't cost that much.
The only problem is henson's 11mil(which is not a huge contract but still it's painful for such performances) and monroe's 17mil(good player though if you consider what contracts guys like noah, mozgov, ezeli, plumlee, leonard got)
It's not that bad. It would be bad if you retained plumlee.
Last post
I'm **** telling you
You know that 26 + 11 + 17=54
Good night man,zzzzzzzzzzzzz time.

At least Skip seems to have a constant opinion ( havetn heard him much) Sparky's opinion changes every few weeks...
Sometimes he agrees about the problems the team got and then next game he goes into call down mode and ownfuture and all that BS.

And my only real crusade is those that hate on Beasley based on other people other than Beasley. Kinda like you did. The whole 'let Beasley walk because of Salmons, and Plumlee' is just kindergarten talk. And I could care less whether they sign him or not. Bring something to the table other than ghosts.

Who is hating on Beasley? He's been better than almost anyone expected him to be. He just hasn't been our 2nd best player.

Really ? I can't read a page on any thread without someone saying let Beasley walk because of Salmons, or dont sign him unless its for next to nothing, or any number of reasons that are comical to say the least

Re: PG Thread (Utah) - Post all-star tank gets rolling?
Maybe I'm looking too much into this but watching the two coaching staffs during timeouts tonight, the Jazz (led by Quin Snyder's presence) just looked..... "better".
Hard to explain but I trust my eye test/gut. Take it FWIW.
