Patrick Beverley made headlines recently when he appeared on ESPN's show Get Up to give his opinions about the Dallas Mavericks-Phoenix Suns NBA Western Conference Semifinal series and its Game 7.
"He can't guard anybody. Everybody in the NBA knows that," Beverley said during the show. " What do we call him? A cone. You know what you do with cones?"
"Like in the summertime, you have a cone. You make a move, what does the cone do? ['Stay still', Mike Greenberg replied] Exactly, he's a cone," he expressed. "Stop playing, man, everybody knows that. You just don't want to accept it."
Having heard the comments, current Philadelphia 76ers player Danny Green did not hold back his words during his podcast "Inside the Green Room with Danny Green".
"People target you too, PatBev, you aren't playing no defense out there," Green pushed back. "You ain't stopping Luka. Time and time again, Luka says 'he's too small' and went right at you every chance he got. When you play Luka, you're a cone too, how would you like that?"
Some shots were fired yesterday in the ESPN studios. Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Pat Beverley was a guest on the show 'Get Up', which is co-hosted by former NBA player J.J. Redick.
During the show, Pat Beverley heavily criticized Chris Paul for his lack of performance in the series that the Suns lost to the Dallas Mavericks in the Western Conference semifinals.
Those comments, though, didn't sit well with Matt Barnes, another former NBA player and now an analyst for ESPN.
Barnes, during ESPN Today, called Beverley a clown for his comments regarding Chris Paul, saying that the Minnesota Timberwolves guard was way out of the line.
"I feel like what Pat Beverley did today to Chris Paul was completely disrespectful and out of the line", Barnes said during the show.
"Beverley is talking like he's that guy, well, you're not that guy, plain and simple", Barnes continued. "Chris Paul played terrible in this series and his numbers are still better than your career numbers have ever been".
"All he needed was the red clown nose cause he was out there talking like a clown today", Barnes said of Beverley. "CP3 is a legend of this game, we were role players in this game, so have some respect for the guy. He played terribly but he'd be the first to tell you that, Bev's comments were out of the line".
Minnesota Timberwolves' defensive cornerstone was clear: "Luka Doncic and Dallas Mavericks".
"I got to go with Luka, who I faced last year. I got to, the boy was cookin' me. He has played in Game 7. Besides Chris Paul, I do not think anyone on the roster has played Game 7 (for the Suns). Obviously, JaVale McGee but no one for sure in the starting lineup. I have to go with Luka, he has been playing well and Dallas has been on a roll," Beverley spoke.
Last year, Mavs lost in the playoffs' first round against the Los Angeles Clippers with Beverley in the squad for the second consecutive season in seven games.
Doncic had great series, averaging 35.7 points, 10.3 assists, and 7.9 rebounds.
