Wade Gives Beasley 4th Quarter Advice

Shapecity · Jan 18, 2010

The mystery of why Michael Beasley plays well for three quarters and struggles in the fourth goes on. Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra thinks it's fatigue, but Dwyane Wade has another idea.

"He's in good condition, but mental condition, to be able to fight back after fatigue and keep on focusing and concentrating and playing hard," Spoelstra tells The Miami Herald. "He's getting better at all of these things, but we'll just have to wait. There are some things we're working on with his diet and sugar intake, all these types of things affect you and your focus later on in games."

Wade says Beasley needs to be a different player in the final quarter.

"As he becomes more of a student of the game, he's going to understand that after you burn a team for the first three quarters, you've got to change up a little bit in the fourth quarter," Wade said. "You've got to do something differently. Michael hasn't been able to make that adjustment on the fly yet. That's the next step in his game. He's a tremendous scorer. He's just making it hard on himself in the fourth quarter."
