    This interview was pure gold! Beasley said “KD was my best friend and the reason I brought my XBOX out of the house”. LMAO. Real Shit right here! This interview reminds me of back in the day growing up. This is how it was in the hood but we worked with what we had and made the most of it.

    For some reason I always thought Beasley was a lot older than KD. Beasley really seems emotionally stable, someone you need around your locker room.
