Patrick Beverley on Russell Westbrook: 'I can tell him things other people can't'
Since then the two point guards seem to get on well. Beverley even called Russ his best friend on the team. The 34-year-old point guard told more on his appearance on Cold As Balls with Kevin Hart. “Me and Russ have the same strength and conditioning guy. I’ll come in a workout 6:15, Russ is already there. We see him, like, is this the time we get his ass kicked? 6 o’clock in the morning, nobody there. Is this the time? It went from that… “I can tell him things other people can’t and that’s the beauty when you got two guys… if you only got two rams, you can only understand things from the other ram. So I’m able to tell him sh*t that nobody else can relay to him.”

Russell Westbrook was just T’d up. He was arguing a no call on the other end. He thought he was fouled by Jalen Johnson on his drive to the basket. – 8:30 PM

“Chris Paul was on the Clippers,” Patrick Beverley said. “Then he left and I came on the Clippers. The Clippers went to the Western Conference Finals the only time. They didn’t go there with Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and the Lob City. They went there with me. -via YouTube / December 30, 2022
“For them to come in and ‘We’re only looking for you get 5 or 6 million dollars,’ I felt like that was the ultimate spit to my face when I literally just changed this whole organization around, we went to Western Conference finals. I didn’t think I got the fair end of the stick.” -via YouTube / December 30, 2022
