Patrick Beverley is quite an annoying player and he just got under the skin of King James. After Beverley failed in his attempt to draw a charge on Bron, the two players started tussling on the floor, where it looked like Lebron was manhandling him with just one arm. Double technical fouls were called and play resumed, but it’s apparent right now this game is heated.

Up until this point of his career, Rockets guard Patrick Beverley is most known for being the player who injured Russell Westbrook last year. After last night, he better be thankful that is still the main image that people think of when they think of him. After he fouled out in a loss to the Warriors, Beverely was walking to the bench when apparently a fan said something that really got to him. He immediately turned towards the crowd and quickly was moving as if he was about to jump over the bench and you could see his body language was dead serious. Luckily for him some quick thinking teammates grabbed him and defused the situation, otherwise who knows what would of happened. Hit the jump.
