Phoenix Suns forward Michael Beasley scored 25 points against the Golden State Warriors on Friday and said afterward that he was more productive because he decided to tune people out.

Beasley's teammate, Jared Dudley, told Arizona Sports 620's Doug and Wolf that he doesn't understand why he would stop listening to the coaching staff.

"I don't know why he would be tuning out the coaches because sometimes when he may be tired of people getting on him all the time, they're trying to stay on him to become a better basketball player," Dudley said. "He shouldn't take it as a negative, it should be a positive.

"I would say there's got to be a better balance. Don't tune them out, listen to them but play your game in a concept of what the team wants you to do."
