Patrick Beverley's hatred for Chris Paul has no end

Patrick Beverley has been one of the NBA’s better defensive guards for the last decade, but he might already have his second career locked down after retirement. Beverley went on ESPN Monday morning to talk about the NBA Playoffs and ethered Chris Paul and the Phoenix Suns almost as badly as the Dallas Mavericks did in their blowout Game 7 win. The Mavs smoked Phoenix by 33 points in Game 7 to advance to the conference finals. It was a shocking end to the season for the Suns after they won a league-high 64 games during the regular season following an NBA Finals appearance last season. One person who was not surprised is Beverley. The Minnesota Timberwolves guard went on TV and picked Dallas to win before the game. His victory lap on ESPN the following day was one of the more brutal public assessments you will ever here from an athlete when talking about a peer who is much more accomplished than he is.
