He doesn't excel at one more than the other, tbh..one of the rare players that seems to play as effectively at both..
I haven't gotten to see a whole lot of him since he left Miami, so for those who have...what position does he fit better, PF or SF?
IF he were to join the Lakers (w/o Pau leaving), would he be better suited as a backup 4 or a starting 3?

he gets raped on defense as a pf. he is exclusively a sf in minny, but there is a bust that gets minutes ahead of him
Beasley has played almost as many minutes at PF, over the last 2 seasons, as he has at SF, according to the numbers..
Yes, Wes Johnson is terrible, but Beasley is a cancer, unless he's a 6th man..
True, that's been the case...but he's also only been on young teams with young or inexperienced coaches--until this season, where he's been mostly injured.
He's 6-10', immensely talented, but wildly inconsistent...what former Laker does that remind you of? The difference being that one has maturity issues while the other has emotional issues.
Mr. Potato Head is a ty coach (and I'm not one who puts a lot of weight on coaching anyways), but he can coach defense, and if Beasley can buy into that then he's worth the TE, imo. It's a team stocked full of longtime NBA Championship vets, so I think that atmosphere helps him grow up.
It's well worth the risk, b/c being last in PPG in the WC is not going to cut it. We need youth, athleticism, and offense and he provides all 3
Lakers rejected Beasley for a 1st rounder...
Just saw that now.... . They better have something good in the works then
Tbh, Beasley is 6'10 like JJ Barea is 6'0
Pau to Houston for Lowry/Martin and Scola is beginning to look likely, if not imminent.
Lowry is not being traded.
Just read from Woj that nets turned down Monta for Lopez. Lakers interested in Monta for Pau type package?
If you thought Bynum didn't have enough touches before...
