Looks Like Brad Beal is Coming

Clippers Forum » Clippers News & General Discussions

I'm very interested to see how he fits on this team. I love how he can vary his mode of attack. He has a nice elbow jumper, can shoot from the three point range, and drives into the paint. Offensively, he provides a lot of versatility.

I like that his role is defined. He's playing his natural shooting guard position. In Phoenix, they traded a true PG for him and then told him to play a position he wasn't accustomed to and then later on, told him to come off the bench. At least he knows his role here, is starting and is playing his natural spot

Yeah, many Phoenix fans were badmouthing him and warning about how terribly he would do here. But I remember Lakers fans were ready to throw Russell Westbrook into the trash, but when he was here with us, he was fantastic. I think we might see the same turn around here. I don't expect Beal to be a 20PPG+ scorer, but if he can even keep a scoring average of anywhere between 15-17PPG, that is a huge bargain for only $5 mill per year.

I'm even fine with 13-14 ppg as long as it's efficient. No need for any high volume, diva action. Hit 40% or better and I'm good

Same here. He's also not on a team with two other one way players like Durant and Booker. I'd love to see him

Bodonavic, and CP3 play some minutes together. I hope CP3 still has a very good pass to turnover ratio.

He is going to average less than 13 ppg. If he starts, then he will. But there's too many bodies for him to be able to average 13 ppg.

But with that said, he's been efficient his whole career.

His steals have gone down a little.

In 2019 - 2020, Bradley Beal averaged 28.7 ppg at the voting deadline, and didn't make the All-Star team. He would finish with 30.5 ppg. Which shows he didn't let the losing affect his professionalism.

I still don't understand how he didn't make that All-Star team.
