Michael Beasley 39 Pts 11 Rebs Full Highlights vs Kansas (01.03.08) UNO No.1!

Remember that electrifying left-handed beast? Beasley was the ultimate star shining way back then. It was interesting that the guy talked a lot early in his career. Not a strange thing for sb who's got talent. Eventually you'd come to realize that you can't just go w/ that talent.
Proof: Juice OJ Mayo.
SAD.
Juice was my ultimate no.1 way back in middle school. He's dead man now. No one took his place, he took himself outta the game. This was indeed an unforgettable game for B-Hard n Henry Walker. They were so young tho. Beasley now landed in one of my favorite team. I hope he grows up n act like an adult, hopefully finding a solid spot on the team. Oh, and most important of all, better have higher RPG this season than D-wade. I could still recall when he was in the Heat, grabbing less rebounds than Wade ==

I can’t lie, I think Beasley was one of the best college players of all time.

[@YardratZ]

Statistically , he was. Well, for one year anyway

[@MoneyOverFame]

joshblue32 that’s what I’m saying. that one year was like the best college season ever. Statistically.

[@donham2540]

Definitely was at least statistically, he could have been great in the pros but I don’t think his dedication was 100% towards the nba

[@matthewwilliams4785]

One of the most talented players I have ever seen. Got to the NBA and stopped working on his game. He coasted on talent his whole career. He could have been a 20-5-5 guy. He had that kind of potential.

Beasley should of been a 20-10 superstar in the nba...sad a talent like that was waisted cuz he could do everything on the court

[@michaelbonhomme3677]

I thought so too, until I found out he was 6’7” not 6’10” His game didn’t translate to pros as well as Durant’s (6’11”) Ultimately Beasley cannot defend Elite Guards or Big Men Beasley is the probably the greatest Offensive “Tweener” of all time, but he was ultimately a matador on defense, so a Step Down from Melo. They can also always pay a younger guy less money with more upside now so his value is too diminished 🤦🏾‍♂️ Rough

[@braddouglas8004]

@@michaelbonhomme3677 I think he was before his time. If he came out the draft in todays league he’d be Jason Tatum. Big small forward with more of a scoring objective instead of being drafted back then when he was pushed into the power forward position.

[@michaelbonhomme3677]

@@braddouglas8004 He was my favorite college player inside of 30ft growing up. Sadly from watching his interview on I AM ATHLETE, his reactions to his life struggles ultimately created his downfall. There are SO MANY Earl Manigaults, Hook Mitchells, and Len Bias’ who are arguably a level ahead of Iverson, Jordan, and Steph NATURALLY, but instead lose the bag to mental illness, crime, and poor decisions Beasley is above these guys because he made it to the league and displayed that he belonged, but -Miami Nightlife -Family imbalance -and Poor Coping skills did him in
