Patrick Beverley is a dog.

We need a guy like you to win a championship. When it's time for the kiddies to get out of the pool, you dive down to the deep end and give the superstars atomic wedgies. You get better when the pressure goes up, and best of all you're the ones who prepare their whole lives for these moments. <IMG SRC="http://media-cache-ak1.pinimg.com/550x/cd/26/c2/cd26c21bdb28355f21ae5c2a88db5488.jpg" WIDTH="400" HEIGHT="450"> Good luck.
I never got the Sura love despite the fact he was hard nosed as well. He was overrated on this board. PBev is just an energizer bunny.
Sura got the love because he so hard nosed on a team full of soft fluffy ponies. Bev is such a pleasure to watch, especially with his 3pt shot becoming more and more consistent.
Anyone have that play where he got the steal, block, pass and then saved it from going out of bounds? I was off my seat. Never saw that kind of hustle before.
If you give this thread anything but a 5 star, you are NOT a Rockets fan. So think before you move your mouse.
P Bev is well on his way to becoming a Houston favorite if he continues to go all out. He looks like Rondo out there hawking Lebron.
Great post, but you forgot someone...even though he does it differently, he sacrificed his body many...many times.
Need to include Vernon MaD Max Maxwell as Dog in those picks. Beverley is the heart of this team. I hope the perimeter players follow his lead a start playing tough D.
