Can we talk about Bradley Beal being a bum?

I got a hot new idea for Adam Silver to change the league some more: hand out an official Worst Contract of the Year award to a player so they're at least motivated to defend some of their reputation. We can call it the Paul George Unachievement Award or something along those lines. @JoelB

I will never understand players getting more heat than the GMs who decided to pay him, or decided to trade for him. If you give me 50 mil, of course I am taking it. Wizards took a huge gamble and it didn't work. But by the time Suns traded for him, we knew what he was yet they still made that trade. He should be getting zero hate. I send him respectful comments to his IG every day to make sure he is in good spirits.

All of this is true


It's still weird for him to want to stubbornly stay at a spot that doesn't want his services anymore, this could easily go bad if people start harassing him and his family

We already seen it with Westbrook when he was in LA.

I don't want Beal to go out like this and I'm not even a fan of his like that, he was already on a bum ass team in the Wizards for a decade, can't get no worse than that, let the Suns trade you to a team you can actually go back to hooping on

He has wife and kids so he probably doesn't want to get moved every 2 years. Also I feel like the more he gets traded, the more fanbases will hate him. He's just trying to get by this contract and then be done. But I really don't understand trashing the guy for being overpaid, that isn't his job. The FO should be getting all the hate. The only time a player should get hate is if he is purposefully throwing games or not caring and I don't think Beal is that, he's just washed.

Hell nah if he actually plays good he'll be aight

He's playing like dogshyt :francis: I'm not tryna have a whole city shytting on me, he can only shield his wife and kids from it for so long


And even if Beal is washed you gotta admit this fall off was so quick, it comes off like he's completely checked out

Westbrook is washed but you can easily spot the effort and that's why people still rock with him despite being a liability alot of times

Tommy Sheppard was fired by Ted Leonsis though.

The Johnny Davis pick and then giving Beal that contract in the same offseason :wow:

Traded KCP for Monte Morris and Will Barton’s corpse too that summer.

Will Dawkins and Michael Winger getting out of that deal while not giving up assets deserves a statue outside Capital One Arena.

That's the thing, I don't think he's capable lol. His biggest issue is injuries, when you are out so many times its hard to get rhythm. Westbrook for all his faults is a tank. He is still capable to help here and there because he's healthy.

Tommy had like 20 problems, his firing was going to happen eventually lol.

Fans are bitter about the money the players make for playing a "kid's game" (99% of adults couldnt survive 1 practice). Plus players are out there and you see their faces and know their names. FOs play on this all the time, especially during CBA negotiations. And fans fall for it everytime.

This is correct. He doesn’t want to move his family all around the country, he has small kids.


We often forget there’s a human component to sports.. I don’t blame him if he’s settled in Arizona. He negotiated the NTC, it’s his prerogative to use it
