Despite being a 6 year NBA veteran, Miami Heat F Michael Beasley is still one of the youngest players on the team.  Recently Beasley spoke of enjoying being the "young" guy again and perhaps he wasn't ready for the "veteran" role that he was put in during stops with the Minnesota Timberwolves Phoenix Suns.  

"The last three years I was the veteran," Beasley said. "To come back and be the young guy again, it's a little different. I'm taking it all in stride.....Being around these guys is amazing, especially coming from a troubled past....I got guys here to keep me in check."

"If I come here and we don't win, I'm the one to blame. There's pressure and then it's not. It's not pressure because I'm playing with some of the greatest the game has to offer. I'm really not that worried about that now. It's good and it's bad. Like I said, I'm working hard and taking it day by day."
