[Video] Patrick Beverley stuffs Dirk Nowitzki

for those who say he wasnt playing defense....he consistently got key rebounds for us among other big defensive stops....

 

Posted this in the Beverly thread, but they had a segment on this on SportsCenter. Gave Beverly props for blocking a guy a foot taller than him, and joked that Dirk was frustrated and "what do you do when you're frustrated...you push Carlos Delfino."

 

Very impressive. I love Bev's hustle. Hope he stays on with the team for a few years at least.

 

Dirk is a dirty player man...i saw a lot of stuff last night that i had never seen from him before.....

something about players reaching their twilight..

 

The first tech was called when Dirk swung at Robinson (19 seconds in the video, replayed at 51 seconds). The second tech was called by another official for yelling at the official (automatic tech, players can't react to the call and this was much more than that). At 26 seconds the official knew he already had a tech and was about to signal to throw him out. The other official stopped him.

Dirk should have been thrown out and the Rockets should have been awarded two free throws.

Props to Beverly.

 

Beverley got some good rebounds~ And I Hate Dirk.

 

Cleverly disguised Lin's defense sucks thread.

 

if you looked, Dirk was T'd up twice by two different officials but the main official called off the second tech. The first tech happened right after the play and was whistled...the second when Dirk walked away... why they let him stay in the game?? FIXED

 

Even on a down offensive night for Bev, he brings it. He has the perfect mentality for the Rox back up PG and I hope he sticks around.

 

Patrick Beverley is a closer (Lame attempt at trolling).
The truth is, Beverley has earned those opportunities.

 

Almost as good as Nate Robinson blocking Yao.

 

Reminds me of Nate Robinson and Yao Ming.

 

That was just great, especially since it was against Dirk.

Thanks Clutch.

 

liked how trob said something back to dirk for tripping delfino.

 

lol and the oscar goes too... delfino!

best rockets reaction since jon barry's rolling on the floor courtside when tmac "sucked the gravity right out of the building".

 

Past two games dirk has looked like he is really frustrated. Scoring 8 pts, I can understand being mad, but this speaks more. Nothing against him but it makes me glad to see the slide the mavs have started to take.

 

Thanks for the video, Clutch. Great defense by Beverley. Curious as to why someone would rate this less then 5 stars....actually I'm not at all. We've got some angry LOFs who can't stand to see another player do well. How pathetic.

 

Kinda looks like a flop by Delfino.

 

Remember he's playing with pain in his elbow, I felt for Delfino.
