David Kahn: Micheal Beasley smoked too much marijuana last year

[Mike-Dub]

According to a league press release, Kahn and the Timberwolves have been fined $50,000 apiece, in what seems to be more than a slap on the wrist for an odd comment (and Kahn's comments were definitely kind of odd). It's not explicitly stated in the release nor has it been reported elsewhere, but it's possible that Kahn's fine isn't a result of his comments per se, but rather his disregard for the confidentiality of player drug tests.

Lol this is pretty much Kahn being fined for his stupidity lol.

But Kahn continues to speak highly of the former No. 2 overall pick's potential -- in part because Beasley has assured him he's done with dope"He's a very young and immature kid who smoked too much marijuana and has told me tha he's not smoking anymore, and I told him that I would trust him as long as that was the case," Kahn said this morning, during an interview that will air at 1:40 p.m. on 1500 ESPN Twin Cities

Kahn has to be the biggest moron in a NBA front office, why would he even bring this up.

Oh by the way if you think that Beasley isn't going to be doing bong load after bong load in the freezing winters of minny, you must be smoking something yourself .

Yeah I suspect old sleepy eyes will be toking strong this Winter.  He told me he's not smoking anymore because he's gotten so much mature over the past few weeks.. lol

This is great. Here are my thoughts:
1. Beasley is not very bright to tell a gm that just traded for him that.
2. Kahn is less intelligent than Beasley for saying that to the media.
3. As long as he wasn't high at the games the only reason it would hurt Beasley's game is conditioning wise.
4. This is a terrible cop out for Beasley.
5. Do I believe he will stop smoking? In a word no.

I gotta disagree with you there sir.  If you smoke weed only every so often, then yes I agree with you.  If you smoke weed every day, nearly every day, or just on a regular basis period, it kills any kind of motivation, makes you lazy as hell, and turns you into a complete bonehead.

i dont think Beasley will stop smoking either, but I do think being sent out of the environment in South Beach is the first step in getting him to turn his career around.  Either that or he just goes off the deep end playing in a nowhere city like Minnesota.

Hey - Watch with the stereotyping now. I smoke everyday. I'm super successful in my field. Completely motivated. Work-a-holic. Educated. Travel the world. Started one business. Planning another.

Just cus you don't have the iron lung, doesn't mean you gotta hate!

LOL!!!

Kahn just cost himself $50,000 and the Timberwolves team $50,000 more because David Stern decided his comment s were inappropriate!!

Ya think?!?!?!

That's not stereotyping it's the truth.  Most of the time weed does make you lazy and kills your motivation when you smoke it daily.

This is the guy who compared Darko to C-Webb in front of C-Webb.  Should we be surprised he say something to this caliber of stupidity?

omg reading that made me go look it up.  "he's a great passing big man" says kahn.  "woah" says webber. hahahah
