    Here is a link about Beasley being fined $50,000 for the Rookie Transition Program this month. That is more then Arthur and Chalmers. He must of done something pretty bad.

    Michael Beasley-F- Heat Sep. 18 - 6:50 pm et

    Miami Heat rookie Michael Beasley was fined $50,000 by the NBA on Thursday for his involvement in an incident at the Rookie Transition Program this month.

    Details are sketchy, but it's also being reported that Beasley failed to cooperate with the league's investigation of Mario Chalmers and Darrell Arthur, who were actually sent home from the camp. Beasley's career is off to an interesting start. The Heat were reluctant to take him with the No. 2 pick, he has had all kinds of agent drama and now he's been fined $30,000 more than the guys who were caught in a room with women and "smoke." But he still hasn't done anything that would scare us away from him in fantasy drafts.

    You know J.R. Rider was a stud in college also. A man child in a SG body.

    Beasley should read up on Rider.

    So once again, Kansas players get the better of a K-State guy.

    Beasley should have told everything he knew just on the principle of sticking it to some Kansas guys

    If he had a choice between a $50k fine and looking like a rat to his peers? A $50k fine is probably totally worth it.

    Agreed Ed. Sure, he takes some heat, but these guys care a lot about their reputation in the league.

    His first loyalty should be to his school and he wouldn't be a rat, he'd be a hero to them.

    I guess you were talking about my original post? I don't have a problem posting it in the Bulls forum and next time I have a post about another team I will try and remember. There is a couple things about that though. First I want to discuss it with the posters I know and want their opinion and second I don't see many posters there. I get your point though if I do post it in the Bulls forum it might get more posters in that forum. I might just next time post it in both forums that might be interested in the subject. I hope that makes sense.

    Your right Heat not Bulls. I must have the Bulls on my mind from an earlier post.

    Up to this point I'd just assumed Beasley had probably ratted them out!
