Beas Knees is awesome and with him in the Wolves, he won't be the worst number 2 pick on that team. Great career move really.

I have high hopes for Beasley. With Love-Beasley up front and Brewer, Johnson and.. Flynn, they could surpass last season's 15 wins. (Y)

Beasley probably will be reluctant to stay inside the paint but more around the perimeter and pull up for the jumpers rather than driving in. Lazy ass, that's what he's been doing in Miami... I hear he flourished inside the paint when he was in the college. Apparently, he couldn't make an adjustment in the NBA. Let's see how he fits into Timberwolves. I do hold high expectations on him even for now since he was the Heat, but realistically I am not so sure he'll be as good as Timberwolves wish him to be.

We kept Beasley and Wright who have trendous upside in potential.

Oh and just for kicks...

The biggest difference between Kobe and Lebron I think is maturity. Some of Lebron's behaviour is just ridiculous. I know all superstars love themselves, but in Lebron's case, he goes beyond the imagination time to time. Whatever the excuse he comes out with in such situations, it all sounds like him saying "I am the King, so that's the way it is."

Unfortuntely, he didn't really fit in that well. But he still has upsides which is being young and bit more experienced(but not improved as we discussed in other thread). Being the first option perhaps will help? That's what Wolves are hoping, I guess.

Ahh good ole comment. Don't be confused though. I am not Bron's fan, but a Wade's and Heat fan. I still think he's bit too full of himself. He's not matured enuf. And that's prolly why he did The Decision thingie.

If Beasley was still on Heat, which he should be, Riley was stupid, you'd still be raving about Beasley's potential. Disgraceful (N) :shake:
