Geo, I can always put it into a fund and hand out million dollar grants in perpetuity.

That’s if I can keep Little Raven from buying a thousand expensive cars…

He would definitely be a good pickup. He’d create havoc with lineup options, but that’s coach’s problem. Given that he’s coming with Giannis who comes over on a trade for Kolek, that’s the least of coach’s problems, lineup-wise.

And now I win Powerball.

Beasley’s 3PAr+ was 170 and his 3PT+ was 116. He shot with very good efficiency on high volume, which is why he was second in the NBA in made 3-pointers, finishing one behind Anthony Edwards, who played 600 more minutes.

Beasley was a friggin’ torch from the perimeter last year. I’m just not willing to entertain an argument that this player would not be a good pickup with the vet minimum.

Took my daughters to the liberty game tonight, had a blast! Got great seats for less than 100 bucks and the game was actually very exciting even though it was a late season game against the worst team in the league. Barclays is pretty second rate though. But it was close to a sellout, and the fans were very raucous.

I think Beasley would be a steal on paper for the minimum. But they definitely would be some team chemistry situations. I think he’s a floor better pure shooter than deuce, but he’s not the most cerebral player in the world, and the team is going to have to win on b ball IQ. But Beasley could definitely go all Aaron Nesmith on someone in the playoffs.

We’re considering giving that same roster spot to Landry Shamet. I’d say without a lot of hesitation that Malik Beasley would be an easy upgrade over that.

A 6’9” point forward who leads the league in 3 pointers is the prototypical franchise player today, which is what made me ask the question. But those all-in-ones seem to remember the player that I remember.

I’m not convinced Malik Beasley is going to be a better player than Deuce this year.

I suppose if the plan is to bring Beasley in and trade Deuce for an upgrade in the frontcourt, that would make us better. Not sure I love that, though.

He can’t handle the ball so he’s not a Clarkson replacement. He’s a Deuce replacement. Does that really make us better?

You’re 100% right & Yes, it does.

If Beasly gets hot in the NBA finals, he’ll get a $15m AAV multi year deal.

He may smarten up and stop living paycheck to paycheck or he’ll choose the most money this year somewhere on a loosing or play in team.
