Didn't watch the game. How did the ghost of Michael Beasley

[sananspursfan21]

Beasley was an enigma but these Bucks will give anyone a run for their money. Our guys have been blowing teams out of the water lately, everybody relax

[cjw]

In a playoff game, Pop manages that differently but was experimenting tonight given lineups. Milwaukee is a tough team to guard given size and this was without Giannis in the second half. Green SHOULD get manhandled by Beasley; he's 6'10" and 235.

Almost felt like flashbacks to game 5 of 2014 when Beasley was the only guy on the Heat bench who could score.

More fair question is given what a corpse DRose has become, which of the two guys picked 1-2 would you rather want from here onwards? I'd almost have to lean Beasley.

[Kawhitstorm]

Call me crazy but maybe Kyle size would bother Beasly? I mean, at least he couldn't have been worse than Simms and Danny on defense tonight

Middleton also killed Danny/Simmons in the post last season.

[playbonner15]

Almost all his jumpers went in and he backed down anyone who guarded him on the low post (mostly Green)

These oversized athletic players are a problem for the Spurs. Don't have enough athletic players to guard them. Beasley has always been a problem for the Spurs.

They should have put Anderson on him and had scrub vs scrub cancel each other out.

Couldn't watch the game. Why in the world was Danny Green guarding Michael Beasly?

Why didn't LaMarcus play? Did he surpassed allowed monthly stats in the past weeks?

[$pursDynasty]

is Beasley, a Blake Griffin type player, 6'10" athletic type sf/pf type that is the Spurs Achilles heel defensively? we seemed to have the same inability to stop him, that we typically have with containing Blake.

Bucks are a super long team, I think they were running Beasley at the 2/3 all night.

Meh, even in le years we would routinely give up 20+ points to players that were half a step away from the D-League.

Random scrubs have always gotten hot against the Spurs.

That's insane.. wish we had someone to burn a a big SF/PF playing out of position like that.

Agreed. Might be by design mostly, though I don't appreciate losing games to that

That might actually work, the help defense will be more alert in providing help since they know Fathead is slow & laterally challenged, and Anderson added length/strength + better rebounding will be more beneficial in a physical clash with Beastley.

I like the Bucks idea of rostering several small forwards that can shoot, dribble, and mostly defend. They effectively used Beasley against the smaller Spurs defenders. I still think Pop could have used Anderson on one of the two bigs. Yes, he sucks and yes, he will miss layups, but he did at least show he could play defense and Beasley was using his size on Green and Simmons and his veteran know how on Betrans. I think Anderson might have been able to at least slow him down given that Beasley, at the heart of it, is a scrub and shouldn't score 28 points against a good defensive team like the Spurs.

[Leetonidas]

Can't believe Pop never tried Anderson on Beasley...seemed the obvious move when Beas was getting hot

[SAGirl]

Only Leonard was able to guard him.

Pop tried Simmons and DG and It didn't work at all. He abused both.

He's too big IMO.. Dude is a legit forward at least 6'9-6'10 and gifted offensively... the only reason he made it this far with so many issues..!
