Man that presser was hard to watch. My girlfriend was saying the entire time "he shouldn't be up there". Pat is a true warrior, he plays through so much. He bought in so hard to this system and this coach and this star. I wish him all the best, and obviously he and his family are in my prayers.
Beautifully said. I'm sorry for your loss and thank you for sharing that. I lost my grandfather too. He was my father figure throughout my life. To Bev, I know your grandpops is proud of you. Prayers to you and your family.
I'm scared to look at the comments section of the ESPN story on Bev. I saw some smiley faces on Facebook, so there are some soulless people out there.
Wow. Random, but I had no idea Les made that happen for Kim. She is so missed (and ironically, I loved Kim for all of the reasons I love Bev).
Condolences to Bev the person. Tough thing to go through. I just ran into a guy I met last year through business. I asked how his wife was doing and he said she passed away months ago. Just sad to even hear ... Its just a hard punch in the gut, and there's no easy way to deal with it. In a crappy way, its tragic moments that makes people realizes there's important things outside the game. People will momentarily at least put petty things to the side and have more mature perspective
Hey Bev, I remember losing my grandfather that I modeled my whole perspective of life around. I can remember closing the casket on him for the last time and the sounds that came out of me that had never come out of me before. People that cheer for you like your grandfather did are not everyday folks. So everyday you'll be reminded of who he was in your life. But don't stop being you. You are the walking example of who your grandfather was, so to back off of you is to let him vacate the earth. Keep him alive with everything you do, on and off the court. Don G
Beverley has become one of my favorite players because he has no quit. That showed tonight as well. I can't imagine having to lace up sneakers and step onto the court for Game 4 with all of that on your mind. RIP to PB's Gramps. So sad and heartbreaking to watch his post game interview. Wish nothing but the best for you and your fam Bev.
I can't imagine playing through such personal pain but Pat B not only managed but shined. He even handled the media well. I would have been like, "My grampa died, how the hell do you think I feel?" I'm lucky. My gramma's 90 and still with us. Cherish your family, people.
My thoughts are with you, Pat Bev. Grandpa in Pat's Russian jersey @4:43 really got me. Rest in peace, Mr. Morris. I'm sure you are in a better place where you're still inspiring us.
Much love & respect to Pat Bev and his family. It's such a blessing to have someone who has you back like his grandpa did. Pat is a great example of what you can become if you have a strong family like that. Condolences to the whole Beverly family during this difficult time.
PatBev all the TrueRedNationArmy feel this tragedy with you. Thank you for pushing your grief down inside & letting it stoke you're inner fire. Now grieve, heal & come back to this battle against SA. We need you & we will help guide you through the Dark Times.
