MICHAEL BEASLEY (by Jack Jensen)
All previous off-court problems and lack of haircuts aside, both Michael Beasley and Luis Scola have become two of the most solid role-playing forwards in the League. Whereas I’d be happing having either guy grace my team’s frontcourt right now, Beasley has a better feel for the game.
Not only does Beasley’s future burn brighter than Scola’s, he has the chance to become a perennial All-Star... Read Full Story
(Getty Images) Young NBA star Michael Beasley seems eager to take Dennis Rodman 's place as the league's tatted-up, hard-partying bad boy. The 20-year-old forward for the Miami Heat checked into a Houston rehab center at least 2 weeks ago for substance abuse. Many think the plastic bags in the background of this photo contain marijuana. (From Twitpic) "All I can tell you is that it's true that Mike is in Houston, and he went there to work out," Bruce Shingler, Beasley's friend and live-in... Read Full Story

Shhhh.
The Miami Heat have been quietly, if not deceptively, making arrangements to take over the NBA. The cunning ability and foresight that made Pat Riley one of the greatest coaches of all-time is about to launch him into the stratosphere on GM’s. By the end of the next decade, we’ll be talking about how Pat Riley changed the game of basketball in the summer of 2010. I can’t... Read Full Story

It became pretty obvious during the Heat’s brief playoff run that they need to find more playing time for Michael Beasley . In the last three games of the first round, the rookie averaged 19 points and nine boards in 30 minutes off the bench, and was often the only other viable scoring option behind Dwyane Wade .
Beasley was Miami’s sixth man all season (24 mpg), a role he couldn’t really... Read Full Story

In just his first season, Mario Chalmers proved he could make the transition from March Madness hero to a solid NBA player. The former Kansas Jayhawk put together a very nice rookie campaign. He started all 82 games for the Heat and averaged 10 ppg, 4.9 assists and 2.0 steals - which was fourth best in the NBA. In the playoffs, Chalmers bumped up that steals average to nearly three a game and was a key contributer to a Miami squad that pushed the Hawks to seven games.

Think back to about 12 months ago: Back when Michael Beasley was terrorizing all of college basketball, before Derrick Rose shot up the draft board and Beasley was a lock to go #1 whenever he decided to go pro. Back then, if someone had told you that B-Easy would do anything less than destroy Matt Bonner during crunch time of a close game, would you have believed them? Of course not. But that’s what happened down the stretch of Heat/Spurs last night... Read Full Story

We’ll start with the Twitter-sponsored portion of Smack: Over the weekend Michael Beasley closed his Twitter account after he took some heat (no pun intended) for posting a pic that may or may not have been bags of weed. Nothing too major, but this is the exact kind of thing that kept Beasley from being a surefire #1 overall pick a year ago. No disrespect to Derrick Rose , but you take a lefty power forward with Beasley’s game and Tim Duncan or Blake Griffin ’s... Read Full Story
