Michael Beasley

[Upperclass]

Why is he not a Warrior? Very good finisher and shot creator and seems like a guaranteed 10/5 or so if you give him minutes. Why not sign him and let Beasley be the whole bench offense for 15-20 min per game? Attitude issues seem to be because he isnt clean cut and always "seems" high.. appears to be a SF/PF version of JR Smith where if he put him with the right people and give him a defined role.. he'll be just fine.

He may have been okay on the 2019 finals team, but i think our team next year needs defenders and not necessarily jr smith’s regardless of position.

Last year when everyone got injured and the Raptors ran a box and one he would have made a lot of sense. I am not a Beasley guy but we didn’t have much at the end.

If we want a scorer I wouldn’t mind Burks coming back, he was a bit streaky but the guy was crafty. Guess it depends how our assets shake out. Think Burks actually brought some of what Barbosa had, we just didn’t have the situation.

[Upperclass]

I feel like Burks is one of those guys who holds his body together long enough in a contact year to get to the next one and then he's out more often than hes in

I was wondering the same thing for last season. He’s also a KD buddy from his hometown so it would have been nice.

[Coxy]

No, only want high quailty character guys on this team. Don't want a guy like him in our locker room, thanks.

Meh I’m kind of over the “high quality only” vibe. I get it, but it’s dumb.

Lol agreed.

I’m not against those that think that way or want to keep that culture. I just think limiting ourselves to certain types of characters isn’t good. Warriors need some spice other than Draymond. Our team imo is too mellow sometimes. I want to see some fire

[ClutchUp]

KD wanted us to sign him and he got vetoed. That kind of tells you what the brass thinks of Beasley.

I wouldn't say Beasley would provide much fire. Kind of the opposite.

[Scoots1994]

I think the "character" thing is really important. It's not that people with character they like are mellow, they just don't want ****. Just look at last year and Burks and Robinson both said after they were traded that they wanted to come back and that the Warriors locker room DURING A TANKING SEASON was the best they'd ever been around. That really does matter, and could make the difference in getting the vet min contract guys that can make the most difference to the team.

The Warriors also prioritize smart players and that I love.

I think the Warriors do need to get a vet big who can keep Dray in check. Gasol would be ideal.

Granted, Beasley is older with more of a body of history, but a year ago, Chriss was seen as being a bad character guy who wasn’t a smart player...... and now he might be our starting center.

I’d be really curious to hear what Curry, Draymond, and Klay would say about Beasley. Give them a blind vote, if all 3 said “we can handle it”, I wouldn’t be averse.

[Mylie10]

On the list of things the Warriors need to do, I would say maintaining open roster spots is right up there.

We have way to many big roster decisions before we think about adding minimum guys at the end of the roster.


However, I have advocated for adding him in the past and his per minute stats are pretty solid. But really no priority right now.

I would love Burks and Robinson back.

[Mylie10]

I’d be down for Robinson as a wing. As long as he’s cheap, he can fit right in.

I’m ok with not bringing Burks back. He’s a volume scorer and if we are healthy, I don’t need him taking shots away from Klay or Curry when they play together.

[TB]

A Beasley thread in 2020? He hasn't done anything ever, let alone recently. Zero reason for him to even be on a list of possible acquisitions.

As mentioned above, we don't have open roster spots if we plan to keep a rookie, MLE player, and TPE player.

Barnett hates Beasley’s game so much he’d probably just quit.
