The L.A. Clippers Patrick Beverley had a series of arguments on Twitter with ESPN’s Will Cain on Wednesday afternoon.

The job of a general manager in the NBA is a thankless job, one that is always criticized yet offers very little praise when you get the job done right. And when you fail, you are ridiculed and maligned beyond measure! Well, sorry GMs, but that’s exactly what we plan to do as we recall […]
