Please explain

Explain how he is. Because at the end of the day, all he's doing is playing hard, aggressive basketball and makes the offensive player uncomfortable by killing their space, regardless of who he's guarding. That isn't dirty, that's just extremely aggressive basketball. His type of defense fades a lot in college, and is virtually non existent in the pros so of course pros who are accustomed to naturally getting space get frustrated when guys like Pat Bev don't willingly or easily give them that space.

I loved that dude at Arizona.

Now someone needs to sign Hassan Adams please

Hassan Adams was so chubby this summer at the drew league

 

[alphawolf]

Jalen Rose still have that fresh hair cut/line up after all these years

 

[shoeking2101]

Tell that to a Thunder fan lol

That wasn't even a dirty play though no one would even be thinking about that play if Westbrook's injury doesn't occur.

 

[moe200069]

Patrick Beverly the next bowen?

 

[markangelo]

your avy reminds me of

My dirty title comes from the Westbrook incident. That was a dirty play. Period. He the type of cat that plays like that on purpose. Then he attempted to do the same thing this week when they played

I'd have to agree

 

[alphawolf]

The game is 80% mental. If you can intimidate or make the opponents feel uncomfortable then you likely to get the W. Beverly is one of those smart dude who know how to take advantage of the mental game.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

I wouldn't say Beverly is downright dirty but he does do extra. I don't mind it, I think every team should have a dude like that on their team. I would prefer it be a big man though.

I'd have to agree

Not raunchy enough.

Only player whose allowed to defend with there hands straight up and not get a foul is hibbert.

Your being silly man that wasn't a dirty play. Prior to that westbrook incident, I've seen that play done countless of times. Players will occasionally try to get a quick steal when the offensive player takes his eye off the defender as he casually takes the ball to the half court for a timeout. That isn't a dirty play. Just an unfortunate freak accident.

For the aforementioned reasons above, Beverly did it again this past week. It isn't a dirty play. He isn't going to change his style of play because one player got injured because of it.

Parsons is a very underrated player. Doubt HOU gives him the money he deserves though.

Hibbert skill set = being able to his arms straight up

Don't think he's underrated. A lot of people from what I see appreciate his knowledge and value to the rockets. The question is how good does one think he actually is? And how much is he really worth?

If they can dump Lin and Asik, they'll try.

or he can be packaged along with Lin and Asik for a great player.. Dare I say Melo? 

 

[steebie j]

There u go Parsons

hopefully that gives him enough confidence to take shots instead of hesitating 

 

[imlive365]

Another under cut by Beverly.

 

[EddieDoyers]

It's always nice to see Oden doing some work.

 

[herbshuttles15]

It's always nice to see Oden doing some work.

I just hope he doesn't get hurt, just on the mental side of things

 

[alphawolf]

Lebron looking like he's a step slower.

 

[Peep Game]

Lebron looking like he's a step slower.

He's been looking like that since the last time he's played the Rockets I blame it on Wade
