In the second round of the playoffs, the top-seeded Phoenix Suns fell to the Dallas Mavericks in blowout fashion in Game 7 on Sunday. Following their disappointing loss to end their season, veteran point guard Chris Paul came under fire for his performance in Game 7.
Following the blowout in Game 7, Patrick Beverley didn’t hold back in a fiery appearance on ESPN’s Get Up on Monday morning. While discussing Paul’s performance, Beverley explained the difference when having to prepare for a game against Chris Paul, versus his preparation for having to guard Steph Curry.
CP3, is he going to be a Hall of Famer? No question about it. Do guys in the NBA go to sleep early the night before playing the Phoenix Suns? Hell no. No. I’m going to Steak 44 over there in Phoenix; I’m going to have me a nice little wine, probably sweat it out in the pregame shootaround and get ready for Chris Paul. Steph Curry? I’m going to bed at 8 o’clock. Mom, don’t call me. My girl, don’t call me. I’m locked in right now. It’s two different monsters.
