Chauncey Billups for Michael Beasley?

I've been offered Chauncey for Beasley. How much less production will Chauncey be seeing this year than last?

beasley ain't putting up ****, wtf. he's one of the worst players in the NBA.

on the t'wolves, though, you maybe right

this is such anawkward deal. i hate hate hate beasley. but idiots value points and the t'wolves are loaded with idiots, so beasley might actually get playing time. he shouldn't.

billups is amazingly valuable IRL and gordon is a big injury risk... billups could also be traded...

i dunno, i gamble on talent and billups is way more talented than beasley. if i was locked into the decision all year, i'd say billups finishes as more valuable than beasley.

but it'll be a bumpy road and you may be able to trade beasley for someone who doesnt suck

Awkward deal is right. As of right now, Billups is slated to start at shooting guard for the Clips but I haven't watched him play enough to know how effective he'll be there. Plus, he'll be deferring to Paul so his assists might take a big hit. I'm assuming (probably incorrectly) that he'll be getting around the same amount of playing time as last year.

Beasley is a big question mark. Apparently, he'll be getting the majority of time at SF and they'll have Derrick Williams focus on PF. He should be in line to score a lot of points but I don't remember him doing a whole lot else. Like you said... Awkward deal. I still can't make up my mind...

Billups might pick up SG eligibility at some point which could be appealing but I'd hang on to Beasley. I've heard the same thing as Crowing as far as having Williams play most of his minutes at PF, at least initially, and Wesley Johnson will be spending a lot of time at the 2 so Beasley will still be getting his minutes.

dunno how i brain-farted that gordon isn't on the clips

billups at SG is a big win and i like his value to stay mostly the same. top 75 value at the lowest. ceiling top 50. like him waaay more than beasley now
