Heat trading Michael Beasley to Timberwolves for almost nothing - Page 4 - Message Board Basketball Forum

The alternative diva team: Jefferson, Love, Beasley.

If these guys got their problems together, this would be an amazing team.

But these guys also have the ability to show that they are the biggest wastes of talent ever.

I wish this three would get a chance to play together. They could be something special to watch.

All three teams should because they will get a big trade exception in return, which they can use to rebuild their teams.

Discretion is the better part of valour, even when teams are upset right now.

This is great for the Heat since the swapped 1st round picks and all know it'll be a top pick

FireMcFailPlease · 07-09-2010, 12:32 AM

my guess is those picks wont be swapped for a # of years. minny could actually be good by then

damn the heat can't even get a solid pg, or role player for beasley?

wow

They probably could, but I don't think they want to take salary back. Cap room and flexibility is more important to them at this point.

Minny is so damn desperate that they'll take any team's wasted top lottery picks (Beas, Darko).

what a sad franchise Minny is. totally run by idiots.

I wanted Beasley to stay in Miami and prove his #2 pick but it was really either Spolestra or Beasley after this season. the Miami made their choice or really Bosh, Wade and/or LBJ made their choices for them easily.

Kahn is a moron.

Couldn't have said it any better myself.

Doesn't surprise me about trading Beasley. I could light it up with him in the 2K games but sadly for him that doesn't translate to real life. He'll probably have higher scoring stats on the 'Wolves, but I don't see him completely turning it around or anything.

It'd be funny if this lit the fire under Beasley's ass and he turns out to be a top 5 player in the next 3 years, and torches Miami consistently.

KnickKiller · 07-09-2010, 01:25 AM

I hope this goes down. I could rest easier knowing he's not coming to the Raptors.

yes because giving up a 2nd rounder to get beasley and brian cardinal to get milicic is just retarded.

f'ing think before you post.

Why?

They get a guy who was the #2 overall pick just two years ago for peanuts.

If he flops, they didn't give up dick to get him.

I honestly think he's got a good chance to live up to his potential in Minnesota. Not as much pressure there.
