Isn't Beasley frustrating - Message Board Basketball Forum

Tonight he tempts you to imagine what he could be. The talent is there as many have said in the past and every now and then it comes together in a game. Such a shame it'll never be consistent unless he changes his mindset.

He's talented for sure, but he can't get his mind right all the time, and lacks the competitive drive to elevate him to reach his potential.

Would be a huge upgrade over world peace.

He got lucky today, he's playing against a team where the SG and SF are not as great as he is. So don't take his performance in this game too seriously. He was expected to dominate the Lakers' wings.

A scorer for lakers trash? You serious? You'd have to throw in young players with UPSIDE like Earl Clark and Meeks.

Metta underestimated Beasley tonight and had his hand down for most of his possessions, which gave Beasley open looks. Fcuk Metta.

Smokes too much weed, doesn't show any control, will not amount.

I dropped him right before Alvin gentry resigned. And now he's getting so much playing time.

Isn't he bipolar or schizo? Tough to be consistently driven day in day out with mental health issues.

Can't blame him IMO. But players like tyreke or wall? Not sure what's holding them back.

Injuries and not having the right supporting casts althought in the Wizards case its more so injuries. I have far more faith in Evans and Wall becoming good/reaching potential than Bealsey but damn hes had some epic games last week or so props to him.

Beasley has been dominating since Hunter took over so maybe he will get it together now that he is playing a lot more minutes.

Since Hunter took over Beasley is averaging:

18.2 ppg, 5.4 boards, 53% fg, 90% ft off the bench.

Gentry and him must've been smoking up before games or summin.
