Reports out of Miami say Pat Riley doesn't like Beasley. The Sun-Sentinel suggested the Heat send Beasley and assorted contracts to Memphis for Mike Miller, Kyle Lowry and the Grizzlies pick at No. 5.

Yippee! Where do I sign! (I mean, if fans can now sit in on workouts, can't sports columnists now make trades?)

Put Beasley with Gay and Conley, and the Grizzlies would have three guys to work with. Put Beasley with Gay and Conley, and the Grizzlies would start the long trip back from an NBA punch line to an NBA franchise.

So that's the move, Grizzlies. Never mind the happy proceedings at FedExForum Monday.

Despite what you've heard, Love is not the answer.

Nope. Beasley is.

Try Lopez, Love, Mayo... Not everyone is sold on that 1,2, and 3 thing. Minny could take a big man over Mayo if they cant land a late pick.

Memphis Grizzlies: The team is rebuilding and is at a good spot at No. 5. But they also have assets that could net them a higher lottery pick.

If they were to offer Mike Miller and Kyle Lowry for the No. 2 pick, would the Heat bite? Maybe, if the Grizzlies were willing to take back Mark Blount or a combo of Marcus Banks and Udonis Haslem in return to make the numbers work.

I wouldnt do it if I were the Heat, but if they think Mayo will still be there at 5, then I could understand.

I'd really LOVE memphis to get Beasley...but I don't know about giving up Lowry...he's pretty dang good, plus has loads of potential. But I guess they still have Crit and Conley.

And it would be good to get Blount back, I'd say he is easily the starting C if that happens.

If the Heat like this and the Girzzles then they should do it. I'd like to see it happen, the Grizzles would be one of my new fav teams(just to watch Gay Bealsey and Conley...I wouldn't root for them).

Doubt it happens though, but it does seem the Heat don't want the number 2 or Bealsey, there's been like 15 rumors about them trading it due to them not liking Beasley.

They'd be one of my favs, cuz I like 3 of there players...Meaning I'd only like to watch them cuz there 3 main players are fun to watch. Besides I couldn't watch them except when we play them.

lol...ok. So you like 3 players on their team, and want to watch them (and I'm guessing) want to see them do good, yet not cheer for them....ok.
