I wonder if he's still got money or has he spent it all.

Semms like a pretty safe bet that he's spent most of it. Steve's been in bad shape/embarrassing himself for years.
I don't even mean to pile on about it. Looked like **** in the mugshot.

I wonder what he's doing for money then?

He'll need a lot more of those to make up for all the games lost due to injuries.

He's got plenty of time. Beal's only 5 months older than the 6th pick in the 2016 draft Buddy Hield.

Heat forward Chris Bosh missed his 41st consecutive game over the weekend, triggering an insurance policy that now covers more than half of his salary, reports Ira Winderman of The Sun Sentinel.
Bosh has been sidelined since the 2016 All-Star Break with blood clot concerns. He had hoped to rejoin the team in training camp, but a failed physical left his career in limbo.
Under Bosh’s contract, the Heat paid $9.5MM of his nearly $24MM salary for this season up front. The organization will continue to issue paychecks, but it can recoup the money from the insurance company. Cap experts Bobby Marks of The Vertical and Albert Nahmad of the HeatHoops blog have determined that Miami can get back about $41MM of the $76MM left on Bosh’s contract through insurance.
“It doesn’t take over,” explained GM Andy Elisburg. “You’re allowed to then file for insurance. You’re still responsible for paying the salary. It isn’t something that’s the assumption of the salary. But you now have the opportunity to make an insurance claim, and it’s a per-game basis.”
The Heat are expected to eventually petition the league for a medical exclusion, which they are eligible to do on February 9th, the one-year anniversary of Bosh’s last game. That would wipe the final two seasons of Bosh’s contract — totaling more than $52MM — off the team’s cap.
Bosh, who is currently vacationing in Southeast Asia, is hoping to catch on with another team once his situation with the Heat is resolved. He continues to occupy a roster spot and is being listed as inactive for each game.

Embiid dropped 17points on Whiteside in the 16 minutes they were matched up. After the game Joel posts a picture of him facing up Hassan, and tags Whiteside #BBQchicken LOL

food is a common metaphor used in rap/hip-hop culture.. Shaq calls big men getting roasted BBQ Chicken all the time on the TNT broadcasts.
Ahh.. ok .. thanks. Did not know that. That's really good to know.
Would "I'll munch you like a Big MAC" be a cool phrase? I dunno...

No. "Eat the booty like groceries" is much cooler, i'd suggest using it whenever appreciable. It's a real party pleaser.
That's a nice one. Thanks man, I'm new to all this.

If you want a masterclass on this check out some Action Bronson mixtapes, Blue Chips 1&2. He's an ex-culinary student and easily has the best food references in the game. Has a cooking show called "**** thats delicious" on the Vice channel and everything.

Also check out "Fried Chicken" by Nas ft. Busta Rhymes it's a pristine example of the versatility of food metaphors.
Action Bronson really does make you hungry when he raps.

Keeping with the rap theme. Gucci Mane got engaged at tonight's Hawks game during a timeout.
