NBA – Teammate of James Harden at the Rockets, Patrick Beverley has come to play with him again at the Sixers.
After Joel Embiid, it’s the turn of Patrick Beverley to try to convince James Harden to reconsider his decision to leave the Sixers. The two arrived at the Rockets together, and they played for five seasons together. They shook the Warriors, before finally the management exchanged Patrick Beverley against Chris Paul.
Six years later, Patrick Beverley finds James Harden, it’s on the side of the Sixers, and he wants him to stay!
“The players are there to play, and this decision is clearly beyond my skills, but we cannot redo a James Harden”, believes Patrick Beverley. “So yes, we want him here. We want him in the locker room. We want him here from the first day of training. If I decided to come here, it’s because James Harden was there. So I hope he stays. I hope everyone can find a solution and put this behind us moving forward. I think it is important. »
“James, I love you…Stay!” »
The day before, Joel Embiid had held the same message, and Patrick Beverley insists: ” I love it ! James, I love you! Stay… I’m very connected to James, and I’m very happy. I am very happy that it is moving. He knows I’m here. We’ll see… “
At almost 35 years old, Patrick Beverley has signed up for a season, and he will bring his usual qualities: defense, leadership, enthusiasm and even exterior address.
“I played five, six years at the Rockets… I played four, five years at the Clippers… We know exactly what it’s going to be like. We know where there will be shots to take. You have to work on those shots” he explainsbefore discussing the ambitions of his team. “There’s an MVP, there’s a fullback like James Harden. There is a young fullback like Maxey. I’m not even talking about Tobias as a “role player”… I think he’s a star, who can become a superstar depending on the situation… There’s all that in this team. You add a new staff, the dog mentality of PJ Tucker and me, around the young people who must be trained to become pros in this league. I think a lot of NBA teams would like to have what the Sixers have.
“But for the most part, I think the agreement is the most important. The closer you are, the more the team wins”
Result: for Patrick Beverley, the ambitions remain the NBA title, but also and above all to pass this milestone of the conference semi-finals. The team has come up against this obstacle for six years.
“The objective is obviously to always win a title”, he concludes. “But first you have to start with the Eastern Conference Finals. I think that’s the mindset, that’s the goal. Of course, at the end of the day, it’s the title. But for the most part, I think the deal is the most important. The closer you are, the more the team wins. And we saw it with Denver this year. That said, we have everything you need. Now it’s about putting it all together, cohesively, agreeing and doing all the little things. »
