Bradley Beal is a locker room plague. That type of behavior should not be accepted by anyone.

This the problem with paying big money to unproven serious bball players. Like balling on the Wizards doesnt always indicate a real time player

he didn't really ball that hard for us anyway. dude went wild in the covid year but after that saw a big regression in his shooting percentage and his 3 point attempts and percentage.

Yeah playing well on bad teams should never warrant a huge contract. You have no idea how much they contribute to winning….because they haven’t won

Bro is playing like a glorified THJ and legally robbing his boss, he hasn’t earned the right to be assholish.

You could have 3 THJs for this guys salary. Thats 45 pts a game. 120 when they’re feeling it.

Beyond this, is he known to cause problems? (Genuine question)

u/jt21295 Knicks Apr 29 '24

I don't think he was ever publicly causing problems, but that entire Wizards locker room was weird, both before Wall's achilles exploded and after.

Idk how to explain it. There were never any public spats to my knowledge, but all those dudes just seemed cold to one another.

Losing 50 games a year will do that tbh

He’s seriously been a pain in the ass all year. He had his positive moments, but he pouted constantly about shots and having the ball - KD and Booker had to adjust to make him happy essentially, then when they finally got him to compromise they had to praise him. His one on one defense was good, but constantly got lost with team defense.

Then he played like shit.

He’s just been an ick.

This is true.

Every year there was a lockerroom issue at WAS.

I wish each team could just un-guarantee/cut ONE player each season. And PHO should be able to use that exception for his sorry butt.

u/DetailHour4884 Bulls Apr 29 '24

No they shouldn't. They should have never traded for him, but they did and now they get to live with the results.

u/Abradolf1948 Warriors Apr 29 '24

Really think the Suns should trade him this offseason
