Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green has chimed in on the whole Patrick Beverley controversy. The Minnesota Timberwolves veteran has made headlines of late after he decided to spew some slander toward Chris Paul after the Phoenix Suns were eliminated by the Dallas Mavericks in the second round.
The Warriors stud shared his thoughts on a recent episode of The Draymond Green Show and he's made it abundantly clear that it is in his belief that Beverley did not do himself any favors with his tirade:
“I respect him standing on what he said. I just think it did him a huge disservice in showing what he's capable of from the TV side because that immediately became what it was about,” Green said (h/t Doric Sam of Bleacher Report). “It became more about Patrick Beverley talking about Chris Paul, than about ‘Man, Patrick Beverley is actually breaking the game down and telling us things that most people can't just see and make out.'”
Beverley has some history with Paul and it seems that he used his platform (and the opportunity) to vent out a bit. Green, who himself is the host of a highly successful podcast, thinks that this was not the right move from Beverley. The Warriors star believes that Beverley had some good insight about the game, but that it was overshadowed by his attack on CP3.
“I've seen more than just the Chris Paul stuff, and I actually think he's said some good things,” said the Warriors vet. “There's been times on there where he was very particular in breaking things down, he went in-depth on things. So I think people can really learn some things from listening to Patrick Beverley.”
