Transcripts
Patrick Beverly followed up an excellent

he throws a ball at a group of fans not
once but twice and then after the game
he insulted a reporter uh to her credit
Melinda Adams who was the reporter in
question tweeted this this morning I
want to thank everyone for their kind
words and support I am humbled Patrick
Beverly just called me and apologize I
appreciate it and I accept it the Bucks
also reached out to apologize I've been
in news for over 40 years and kindness
and Grace always when Brew your
reaction just terrible on Patrick
Beverly's behalf I mean it it was just
first of all and what you didn't see you
mentioned he threw it into the crowd
twice he first kind of lobed the ball
into the crowd and it hit a woman in the
face she's not looking just surprisingly
hits her in the face thankfully he
didn't throw it as hard as he did this
time where he fired it and there's a
little girl there that was in the line
of fire he missed her thankfully
but he could have easily hit her and
then what he did to the reporter I mean
that was just straight bullying I'm not
going to jump on any of the reporters
but I I wish they all would have walked
away in support of Melinda Adams that
was just terrible and um he has he I
don't know that he's issued a public
apology about the reporter I know he did
about the the ball the fans and things
like that but he should I'm glad he did
call the reporter but um I think he
should get he should be susp suspended
fined of course but suspended for at
least the first five games of next year
and I know that sounds a lot I wouldn't
even be mad at 10 because this is just
uncalled for you can't be doing that to
fans and I don't think they can bake in
the situation with the reporter into the
fine but just that reporter the reporter
stuff tell me if you agree brew and then
I'll let you finish the reporter stuff
is like a separate category entirely I
think it shows to me it's about the Char
and that but I don't think you get
suspended for the league for being a
jerk to a reporter the stuff with the
fans in Indianapolis of all places you
know what I mean I the is where I think
you're saying where he could be really
punished for yeah I mean we all know
what has happened in the past with the
fans and players and you know heckling
occurs as long as it's not Beyond you
know uh the boundaries and there's no
evidence that it was the reports are
that they F yelled Cancun when the team
broke in the Huddle and they said Cancun
and so um look 10 might seem harsh but
again you the potential for what you
could have done you could have hurt
somebody had the fans been more
aggressive they could have gone at you
and now you start a a a Ruckus so yeah
five games at least I'd like to see
wouldn't be mad at 10 next year so I've
seen the whole journey Pat and I'm going
to go through it for the audience cuz
it's as embarrassing as anything that
happened last night from when you got to
Houston I was there you were thrilled to
be in the league happiest guy in the
world hanging out at Onyx at 3:00 in the
morning with your ridiculous fake chains
cuz you couldn't get into dreams yet I
understand I was in a similar spot buddy
and you went from that to whatever
you've become a delusional cheap shot
artist misogynistic clown promoting your
podcast at the expense of your career
which to its credit let me check
while still behind Andy rodic's tennis
podcast and your own teammates pod you
are ahead of beer bear grease by Klay
Nukem so good luck with it so how did
you get here and how did Pat Bev become
a guy that we talk about despite the
basketball reference page a creation of
your own delusion in Houston oneand done
every year that you played you know how
they broke through to make the
Conference Finals I don't know but I
know you were out that year then they
didn't have another playoff run till
they traded you and then promptly made
another Conference Finals so what
happened then you went to the Clippers
and you beat Kevin Durant in a
basketball game and talked about it and
then he promptly dropped 50 on you and
reminded everyone who he was and who you
were that off season you then declared
to anyone who would listen the next five
years are mine Steph Curry's had his
time by the way those five years ended
literally last night it's been 5 years
since then how did that go those 5 years
well the first year what happened in the
bubble you started the bubble by
disrespecting Michelle Roberts in front
of your colleagues and they had to talk
you down from it you ended the bubble by
being a key part of the biggest gag job
in the last 30 years in the NBA what did
you do the next season the next year
tylo's big adjustment the one time the
Clippers are going on a playoff run you
remember what it was sitting your ass on
the bench that's what turned that
playoff run around how did that playoff
run in oh yeah with Chris Paul having
the best game of his life on you and you
dealing with it by shoving a man in the
back when he wasn't looking and then
going on TV and calling a legend of the
game a cone what then happened after
that 2022 you won your Championship
unfortunately it was a playin game and
you celebrated like it was and then
20123 to 2024 you have been on the Jazz
the Lakers the magic the Bulls the
Sixers and the Bucks and not a single
one of them wanted to keep you around
and you ended that tenure by throwing a
basketball at a woman's head getting it
back throwing at another fan and then
yelling at another woman in the locker
room because she doesn't listen to your
terrible podcast so if if this was your
last moment in the league good riddance
won't be missed won't be memorable I I
mean congrats for creating something out
of thin air like The Wizard of Oz that
never should have existed to where
you're a guy that's talked about but
unne necessary from start to finish
