Would he really decline such a massive amount of money? Is that really happening? Well, one thing is certain, it is news to Beal himself.
Beal tweeted this out when the news broke. Looks like he is in disbelief about his own decision.
Wait huh? Lol

A Tatum and Beal one-two punch would be lethal. Adding him to the current Celtics roster is like bolstering a tank. Indestructible.
Kendrick Perkins, however, has other wishes.
“Bradley Beal & Luka [Doncic] together would be a force to be reckon with. It would arguably be the best backcourt in the NBA… That would be deadly.”

Wow, imagine that, a Luka Doncic and Bradley Beal backcourt. The number of points they would score. Insane.
The possibilities are endless and Beal is one of those players that deserves a better team. Whatever happens, it will be fun to watch it unfold.
