I don't see this happening... mainly because Beaz hasn't really proved to be anything but an underachieving sporadic scorer in the NBA thus far. I hate saying it, but he's kind of a bum.  :(

Welcome to the site nster,

Beas could have  used a couple more college years to mature

I can't agree with you on that EMAW. He's not going to be a star in a star city like Miami. If you put him on a good young team in Minnesota that's only one game out of a playoff spot where he can "hide" he has put up some decent numbers (12 points/game 5 rebounds/game).

I can't every decide on Beasley.  I mean.. the guy broke so many of Durants college records, there was 0% chance he was coming back for another year.  He was flat out a beast in college, so going Pro made sense.  How one 19yr old matures vs another (Durant vs Beasley) is hard to tell till the time comes calling.  Durant got called on to lead, and Beasley never did.  That being said, I think he is ready to hit up a new team and define his role.  LA would be a nice stepping stone.
