What's Michael Beasleys ceiling?

He is who he is and IMO he'll struggle in the new offense. D'Antoni will not like his game.

 

We saw it

 

Wildly optimistic, 6th man of the year.

 

He has issues playing in a system, he is 100% a guy who needs the ball and can score it.

He has elite scoring ability but it freezes everyone else out, and he is just not good enough to be THE MAN like Harden.

6th man at best.

At 27-28 he's reached it.

 

Beasley was out of the league last season before desperation forced the Rockets to take a look see ..... If he's a rotation player , your team is in trouble.

 

tempered glass.

 

Right below the roof

 

CBA MVP or NBA end of the bench garbage time superstar.

 

15-16 brewer on roids. instead of 7ppg, he'll get a whopping 7.5ppg! on 7.2 fga! talk about most efficient bench player of the year

He was a spark in a shet offense last year

which just says how bad our system was last year when Beasley is your second go to scorer

 

I think he can still be a good role player.....

depending how MDA is going to use him

Ceiling probably at 11 pts and 5 rbg given reasonable minutes

 

He is the next Michael Jordan.

 

Best case scenario, he's a decent rotational guy who can provide a spark offensively off the bench and bring some athleticism and rebounding to the rotation while hopefully not giving up too many points on the defensive side of the ball. Worst case scenario, he's a black hole offensively who kills your rhythm when he comes in the game and shows poor shot selection while being a sieve on defense and ultimately is a strong nightly DNP candidate midway through the season.

But this idea that Beasley is suddenly going to realize his potential this far into his NBA career and be the Rockets' savior is kind of ridiculous. It's far more likely that he's not on the Rockets roster at all by the trade deadline than that he's starting or showcasing 6th man of the year potential.

 

If the season goes well, we do not need another savior.

Sure if the season does not go well, we'll see. At least it cannot get worse than last year.

 

To many guys at the 4
Anderson, Beasley, Harrell, Dmo, Ariza spot minutes

 

Some players 'get it' later in their careers...but that just moves him into the rotation. He'll never be the star some thought he'd be. That ship has sailed, come back to port, sailed a few more times, retired, and been replaced.
