What’s that? Patrick Beverley has an opinion and he’s sharing it with the world without holding back?
That NEVER happens (sarcasm font!). Oh right, it happens ALL THE TIME — just ask the Clippers or Russell Westbrook or Jonas Valanciunas or … everyone.
On Monday, the Minnesota Timberwolves guard appeared on ESPN’s Get Up, and he went especially hard at Chris Paul after the Phoenix Suns got blown out in Game 7 against the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday.
He noted that CP3 “can’t guard.” I think he meant anymore, since the future Hall of Famer is known for his defense as much as his point guard prowess, but either way …
"He [Chris Paul] can't guard. Everybody knows that."

He thought the Suns should have benched Paul!
.@patbev21 says the Suns should've benched Chris Paul instead of Deandre Ayton 👀
"They benched the wrong person. They should've benched Chris."

Here’s more:
Pat Bev just now on ESPN:
"Do i go to bed at 10 pm the night before playing Chris Paul? .. Hell no.
But if i'm playing Steph Curry tomorrow, i'm going to bed at 8 o'clock. Telling my girl not to call me!"
