I can't wait for Beal's next bad game for everyone to turn on him.

"He's the future best SG in the game"

three days later

"He's an overrated bum"

It's going to happen.

His first game was pretty terrible and I don't remember any slander.
 
45pts on 18-47 in 2 games. With no defense.

And this isn't the first time he's played like buttcheeks in the playoffs

the slander is earned

Everyone just lets a couple games influence your overall opinion of a player, though.

I get that the playoffs are important.. and if you're awesome all season but suck for four straight games and your team gets bounced.. that's something to notice and comment on. But let's not pretend that James Harden isn't a top guard in the league, because he is. He's awful on defense and struggling right now, but still..
 
Thing is, most of the 2 guards today, what they lack is they either can't shoot, or can't get to the line. One or the other. Those qualities are what makes 2 guards so great. Most of the two's in today's game don't have those qualities.

nah, the reality is 2 gaurd is a historically not great position, we overrate it because of Jordan.
 
Beal just has to continue to make strides as far as playing inside of 20, 25 feet and getting to the line a bit more. He has the athleticism and size to do so though. Also gotta stay healthy as well. Don't know if he'll ever be a good playmaker though.
 
Damn...the shooting guard position really is weak. The guy that suppose to take that next step can't even do **** in the playoffs

. Wade and Kobe are just not the same. Who is going to save this position going forward?
Real Deal Beal

hes been bad in three straight playoffs. a bunch of guys in here have said mid season that his game (looking for fouls) will not work in the playoffs

lack of offense, combined with literally 0 effort on defense = not that great of a player
 
the shooting guards in the league are too young...but i expect most of them to make major jumps....Demar is going to continue to get better, Beal is only 20 years old...give him some time and James Harden is still talented
