    Besides the fact that even CLE can't do S&Ts as they are well above the apron.

    The article mentioned he averaged 13 points per game last season, I could see that being starter at SF material at this point.

    Beasley can hoop...he was good with the Knicks off the bench...guy can score in bunches...not a great defender.

    He is actually a scorer - which is not something this team has in abundance at the SF/PF position. Of course, he is a bad defender with questionable work ethic... so - the only way he is worth considering is cheaply.

    Beasley doesn’t fit the culture Olshey always goes on and on and on and on and on and on about. But I would be all for it. I think he’s underrated. PER of 20, 18,18 the last three seasons.

    8 teams in 9 years. (Including 2 in china) I will say that Pat Riley brought him back twice after letting him go the first time.
    He might be worth the risk. Can he pass a drug test?

    I heard he's grown up since he had to go play in China....legal pot might not be a good fit but the guy is skilled and affordable...

    What’s the hold up with Connaughton Jake and Napier? They’re all coming back aren’t they?

    There's no hold up. They aren't coming back. Portland is setting them free.

    The default with Jake is he gets extended. We have to renounce him.

    ya not sure why they're delaying. Our local media on top of it as usual, smh. This forum has a better understanding and interest in learning the CBA than the guys who actually have access to the team.
