This is where we kill time while we wait for the preseason by tying Suns players to songs in our music collections.

It's as simple as the title makes it out to be. You can twist the meanings of lyrics or just go with the mood of a song. Bonus points go to posters who can avoid tying a certain forward to songs referencing a certain substance and posters who use tunes that aren't explicitly basketball-related.

I'll kick things off with Michael Beasley & "Zero" by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

You're a zero -- He's number zero.

What's your name? No one's gonna ask you -- Beasley has been in the NBA long enough that he can't ride on the name he made for himself as an ultra-dominant college player.

Better find out where they want you to go -- He needs to listen to the coaching staff's advice about shot selection.

Try and hit the spot, get to know it in the dark -- He needs to fall asleep watching game footage every night until he learns where he gets high-percentage shots.

Get to know it whether you're crying, crying, crying, oh, oh -- He shouldn't dwell on his past deficiencies. It's time for a new and improved Beasley.

Can you climb, climb, climb higher? -- Can he realize his untapped potential and climb into the ranks of the superstars?
