Re: HEAT sign Michael Beasley
[QUOTE=kshutts1]Unless there was collusion (possible) I would argue that the risk taking began with the summer of Lebron and Bosh signings. To allow all your players to leave, and just have hope that you can sign NBA talent that will fill out the roster without handicapping it (big money to good, not great, players, etc) is quite risky. Again, this is assuming there was no collusion.
Then old man Ray Allen. Birdman. Oden. Beasley.[/QUOTE]
Don't forget Battier.
Re: HEAT sign Michael Beasley
I'm on record on this site saying nobody should sign him.
But after bringing 3 titles with his personnel decisions, and producing teams that have made deep playoff runs, you have to trust Pat Riley as a Heat fan.
He had improved significantly at the basics of winning bball in his finals season with Miami.
Re: HEAT sign Michael Beasley
Beasley >>>> Mike Miller
And Beasley is 10 years younger so why is this a bad pick up?
Re: HEAT sign Michael Beasley
This is a steal of pickup considering what is out there and the upside of Beasley's talent, if he gets his act together.
Big if, but who else is out there that can be a guy who can get them 15-8 off the bench.
He could be this year's Andre Blatche - get out of a really bad situation and go to a better environment.
Re: HEAT sign Michael Beasley
Beasley, if he focuses in on his game and refines his skills, will be able to play to his potential and be a 6th man type of player of Miami. All depends on his level of maturity. This isn't the Timberwolves or the Suns. This is a back to back championship team, with the best player on the world and some serious goals. He'll be ready.
Still feel like Oden is the main piece. Hoping he's healthy and ready to go.

All they need out of Oden is about 5-8 mpg in the playoffs when the Heat go against Hibbert, Chandler, Noah, Lopez.
Re: HEAT sign Michael Beasley
Bosh and bron can use some rest with this signing, preserve their energy for the playoffs. Thats if he's signed to play in the Regular season.

Re: HEAT sign Michael Beasley
On paper it is one hell of a pickup(if he gets his shit straight).
Re: HEAT sign Michael Beasley
[QUOTE=Nash]We should stop this Pat Riley glorification. I love the man but he's in a very good situation to bring in players right now. It wasn't this easy to get players pre 2010.
Here is why players sign for Miami:
1. Lebron/Championship
2. Wade and Bosh
3. The city of Miami
4. Exposure[/QUOTE]
