Michael Beasley Busted For Weed. Can’t He Smoke During the Lockout?
While the NBA can’t comment during the work stoppage they may take action after but what else are players gonna do?
#MichaelBeasley #weed #Supercoolbeas #GorillaBeas
Minnesota Timberwolves forward, Michael Beasley, was “caught” with weed last week while speeding in a Minneapolis suburb, but got off far more lightly than expected. The 22-year-old former #2 NBA draft pick was pulled over at around 3 a.m. after being clocked at 84 MPH on a Minnetonka highway. Police searched the car alleging a strong herbal aroma and found 16.2 grams of marijuana under the front passenger seat. Beasley claimed it belonged to a friend who just got out of the car and the officer bought it (perhaps along with a autograph for his son but hey) Beasley was ticketed for possession of marijuana and speeding, but not arrested.
Look, Beasley’s a problem child. He likes his weed just like I know a lot of NBA players do. But he’s been in the league only 3 years and already gotten involved in a few situations. Remember when he got pinched with a fine for $50,000 by the NBA when he was caught with two other players at Rookie Symposium chilling with chicks and smoking trees? Then didn’t Pat Riley later make him go to rehab? But should this latest incident be another black mark on his NBA record?
So what happens now? Traditionally such actions would get Beasley a call to come to New York and sit with Mr. Stern but hey, its a lockout right? Technically he’s unemployed right now. Should we care what recreational activities he participates in? If the league can’t be responsible for any injury he incurs during the lockout should they not be able to take any disciplinary action against him if he gets in trouble during the same time period. He didn’t get arrested, and according to the officer, the summons was punishment enough for his actions. What do YOU think should happen? SOUND OFF!

I think he should be free to do what he wants. BUT if he’s gonna want some weed, then he needs a YES MAN to go get it for him. Stay out of trouble and let a grunt worker go deliver the goods. And people PLEASE STOP TAKING PICS OF YOURSELVES IN RESTROOMS! ESPECIALLY GUYS! That shit is real lady like and looks stupid. I can’t stand when people do that shit. And Beasley, throw them corny ass green glasses away….and that Spawn t-shirt. LOL…
Lol. I saw the picture and knew you all would have a field day with this one. This was back when he was snitching on himself tweeting. He has since shut down his account.

I agree with you. If you’re a millionaire with a habit you need to pay someone to cop for you.
If your rich and you have a habit of some sort.
rule# 1: Get a phantom, bentley, maybach, limo, whateva and get a damn driver! Quit trying to see the city lights while you get “right”
Rule# 2: Get a go to guy to go and get it for you or find yourself a better dealer who delivers!
Rule# 3: Quit taking gay ass pictures of yourself, where are your friends at? WTF
LMAO! Cosign! These dumbass athletes who are carrying a gun and weed are always speeding! and it’s always at 2-3 in the morning! That is why cops wanna search your car, dumbass: you up to no good at that time of night, driving around doing 84 mph!
When I was a young man (Mudbone voice), if I had anything on me that meant jail, I drove the damn speed limit, used my signal lights, gave other drivers the right of way, whatever! I never got stopped! I should do a damn training for the NBA/NFL/MLB/NHL…I’ll call it “DON’T BE A DUMBASS!” LMAO!
The problem EL is even at the Rookie Symposium which is supposed to warn players about these pitfalls he got busted in a cypher. I guess when you’re always high you can’t think straight long enough to BE smart.
@Eru420
I was going to say “gay ass pictures” too but I didn’t want to offend anybody on here LOL!!! He does look suspect in that pic though!
Beasley is the exact example of a kid that should hav stayed all 4 years in college. I thought this kid was gonna b the next the way he dominated at K State but his maturity is that of a 15 yr old. Dude dissapointed me so.much during his stay at Miami. And son hop off the weed and clubs and get in the gym cause nba will comeback and ur conditioning is already suspect
So’s his game.
Nothing better than a weedhead with Skill, even if the T-wolves drop him he will be picked up…
Guys like this give weed smokers around the world a bad name as President of the responsible weed smoking union I’m hereby revoking Beasley’s card not for getting caught with the sweet chiba but for still having braids in 2011 and wearing those dumb ass glasses!
On another note son got bagged with over a half ounce and the cop let him slide? He definitely gave dude an autograph, or something else!
@ 4pl……lmao, that shit is defintely true.
@ Auchamp22 yeah some team will pick him up because they can buthcer his contract and probably get it to where he pays them…..all they gotta do is keep him in the kush…lol
@ ElDiaz….you need to get on them “Don’t be a dumbass” classes ASAP….lmbao…
Is it me or does dude look like an athletic Kid Cudi?
SAY NO TO DRUGS.
