VIDEO: Patrick Beverley gets in ref's face, Scott Brooks rushes to object
The Thunder and Patrick Beverley of the Houston Rockets have a long history going back to Russell Westbrook's injury 18 months ago. Beverley gets into it with a lot of teams, but nearly every time with OKC and Sunday night was no exception. Things started getting heated in the third quarter, and then after a series of altercations, this whole thing occurred.
So Telfair says something, and Beverley goes over and gets in Bill Kennedy's face. Like, very much in Bill Kennedy's face:
And then Scott Brooks comes charging in.
And the result of all that is... a tech on Telfair. Sure.
Beverley redefines what "pest" is. Thunder and Rockets battled all the way to the final minutes.
