Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra insisted Wednesday that the insertion of Michael Beasley into the starting lineup at power forward does not end plans to also feature the No. 2 overall pick in the 2008 NBA Draft at small forward.

With Jermaine O'Neal, Michael Beasley and the entire support system coming through for the Heat, Dwyane Wade did not need to dominate in Wednesday's 115-93 rout.

We all know the Heat absolutely, positively has to start Michael Beasley this season. And we all know it absolutely, positively has to start Beasley at the position he should play for the next decade, which despite months of experimenting elsewhere is power forward.

Apparently, the future is now for the Heat at power forward. Michael Beasley, the No. 2 overall pick in last year's draft, is in. Udonis Haslem, a starter the past five seasons and a defensive stalwart on Miami's 2006 championship team, is out.

By Ira Winderman The Overload Factor: With Wade, Beasley and Jermaine O'Neal in the starting lineup, that's a lot of scorers looking for a lot of shots. Figure on Mario Chalmers standing somewhere in the corner and Richardson playing as somewhat of a facilitator.

An alarm sounded around the NBA, heard by all with any interest in, or links to, Michael Beasley. That included a fellow former collegiate star who had faced him in the first round of the NCAA Tournament before getting selected one spot later in the 2008 NBA draft.

While Miami Heat forward Michael Beasley tries to find his niche on and off the court, the affable 20-year-old once again found himself in the middle of an awkward situation that has apparently been taken out of context by TMZ.com, the entertainment website.

No, there doesn't appear to be much to be made about photos of the Heat forward posted Saturday on TMZ.com. But that's not the issue; the issue is that the Beasley buzz again is away from the court, impacting perceptions.

By Ira Winderman Earlier this preseason, there was a rumor of Beasley being linked to a deal involving disgruntled Warriors forward Stephen Jackson. While Jackson's deal runs past 2010 free agency, the money he has guaranteed for 2010-11 ($8.5 million) is not dramatically more than Beasley has on the boo...

In a moment of candor, Beasley acknowledges an extra year at Kansas State might not have been such a bad thing, but says he is confident his career is back on the right track.

A day after social networking led to another uncomfortable moment for the second-year Heat forward, he scored a team-high 24 points in a 96-91 preseason loss to Oklahoma City.

The experiment was put on hold Sunday. Michael Beasley was back at power forward for the Miami Heat, back at the spot where he built his lottery reputation at Kansas State, back where he earned first-team All-Rookie last season.

Michael Beasley, who has been easing into the transition of going from power forward to small forward in training camp, said he's ready for the switch.

Limited minutes at small forward for Michael Beasley and defensive struggles by its point guards get Heat off to a shaky start to its exhibition schedule, with an 87-83 loss to the Pistons

Heat point guard said he never was placed in the NBA's substance-abuse program, and therefore his only offseason punishment for his misstep at the 2008 rookie seminar was repeating the program this summer.

What is it about former Big 12 power forwards having to work their way into starting lineups, even after going so high in the lottery? For his part, Beasley is ready for any challenge the Heat throws his way.

By Ira Winderman So which of the lottery picks is more likely to start on opening night?It could be an intriguing race. For his part, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said of Beasley during his team's media day, "I would say it would be surprising for him not to step into a significant role this season."

By Ira Winderman The official camp roster is what has been reported in this space for days. There are the 12 returning players (Jermaine O'Neal, Jamaal Magloire, Joel Anthony at center; Michael Beasley, Udonis Haslem, James Jones, Yakhouba Diawara and Dorell Wright at forward; and Dwyane Wade, Daequan...

Of course Dwyane Wade has to produce. And, of course, much more is anticipated from Michael Beasley. But the expectations go far deeper on this roster as the Heat prepares for camp. What about Mario Chalmers? James Jones? Jermaine O'Neal? Daequan Cook? Quentin Richardson?

In his first interview since returning from more than a month in a Houston substance-abuse center, the second-year Heat forward apologizes for his actions, explains his bizarre Twitter postings.

By Ira Winderman Will Michael Beasley see considerable time at small forward or even start there next season for the Heat? Riley recognizes the need for more firepower on the court, especially if Udonis Haslem and Mario Chalmers are the other starters.

By Ira Winderman But what sticks out about Lottery Night 2008 is something that seemingly factored into the entire 2008-09 season: Heat President Pat Riley never fully embraced the No. 2 selection.

It's unfortunate that the last game in that series was a blowout, but the Heat are still young and have plenty of room to grow. The Beasley-Wade combo will be interesting to watch next year. For now, The Hawks get to advance to the 2nd round...to face ...

By Ira Winderman So after an entire season of explaining why Michael Beasley isn't a small forward, the Heat's first substitution was Beasley for small forward James Jones. The best Heat center in the building was Alonzo Mourning, who again was on hand to lend support.

 FL Otherwise everything stays the same for the Heat tonight. We can only hope that James Jones continues shooting as well as he has been, and maybe, just maybe Michael Beasley will break out of his amazing slump. I'm just curious to see how the Heat ...

By dberri As for Chalmers…a few days ago I noted that he’s producing at a level similar to what we see from Derrick Rose.  If you recall, Rose was taken with the first pick in the 2008 draft.  The Heat took Beasley with the second choice, and then waited until the second round to take Chalmers.  At this poin...

By David Friedman(noreply@blogger.com) Several Eastern Conference teams clearly improved in the offseason--most notably the Philadelphia 76ers, who acquired Elton Brand. The Cleveland Cavaliers hope that Mo Williams will not only solidify the point guard position but that he will also be the best second scoring option that they have had in the LeBron James era; no James sidekick has averaged 17 ppg, a mark that Williams has exceeded each of the past two seasons. The Miami Heat not only added second overall pick Michael Beasley but they look forward to having a healthy and explosive Dwyane Wade for a full season. The New York Knicks will almost certainly improve now that Donnie Walsh and Mike D'Antoni are running the show but there is no reason to believe that even in the Eastern C...   [read the full post]

By J.E. Skeets Key Players Added: Michael Beasley (draft, Kansas State), Superintendent Mario Chalmers (draft, Springfield's school district), Yakhouba Diawara (free agent, Denver), the baby-faced assassin James Jones (free agent, Portland), Jamaal Magloire (surprisingly, free agent)

There were reports. There were whispers. There was a cloud of suspicion that maybe Miami Heat rookie Michael Beasley had been involved in that Rookie Transition Program hotel room party that got Darrell Arthur and Mario Chalmers sent home and in trouble.

By noreply@blogger.com (FLCeltsFan) Herald House call for Celtics Heat rookie Michael Beasley fined $50,000 NBA.com Dumars takes Pistons' standouts off the market FL's Take: This doesn't surprise me. The Pistons were looking for too much in return for their players and the players were petitioning for one more chance. I think a lot of the Pistons' problems stemmed from being over confident. They felt that they could coast for much of the game and then turn it on at any time but they found out that against a defense like the Celtics, they couldn't do that.

By noreply@blogger.com (David Friedman) Between the draft and some recent trades, the Nets added Lopez, Chris Douglas-Roberts (who claims to have never lost a one on one game in his life, a more useful--if harder to verify--trait than Ajinca's one on zero prowess), Ryan Anderson, Yi Jianlian and Bobby Simmons. Mark Jackson said that New Jersey has made a "tremendous upgrade." Van Gundy liked Milwaukee's moves, which include acquiring Richard Jefferson from New Jersey plus drafting Joe Alexander and Luc Mbah a Moute. Bilas praised the Heat, who added Beasley, Mario Chalmers and Darnell Jackson. Of course, the reality is that it is far too early to know who the real winners and losers are but I think that Jackson, Van Gundy and Bilas' choices are reasonable based on what we currentl...   [read the full post]
