    Well, I wouldn't count him out. A few years ago he was bouncing around Ukraine playing ball, so he's shown he can soldier through adversity.

    It's hard to match his tenacity, though this competition isn't really the best match for his skills. Hope he practices and shocks the world.

    Yeah, when it comes down to it I'll root for him during the challenge, but man... this was completely out of left field.
    Let's not be homers, Bev is not exactly who you would think of when you think of elite NBA point guards lol.

    My first thought when I saw this thread was that Clutch had brought back the annual April fools joke. Then I realized its only February.

    Y'all turn far too quickly on a player. I swear, on the game thread tonight, someone questioned Harden's FT ability because of a couple of misses. Pretty ridiculous. I'm not happy with Bev's play thus far in the season and would much rather trade for a capable player to replace him. That won't stop me from rooting for him and wishing for his success. He is still a Houston Rocket, and he has done nothing but give everything he has to the team.

    I'm glad Bev finally came back with a damn better game.

    This is the thing, I know this is a opportunity to be recognized by your peers but I would like to see PatBev take some rest and rehab on that knee. He is playing like he is spent as of late and needs some time off to recharge.

    Now they've added a 3 point shot, it's probably going to pretty much come down to the 3 point shot, lol, the rest of the stuff i could do on 1 or 2 tries

    I am happy for him. Hope he does well. He showed his value to the team and to the fans against the Suns. Go Pat Go.

    The lynch mob mentality among you people against Pat Beverley is so predictable.
