"I think it all turned when he went to the Lakers and left," Beverly claimed. "I think he had a cloud over his head that was dark. Teams didn't know if he was a team player. Teams didn't know if he was a good locker room guy. I mean, he was a teammate of mine, one of my favorite teammates. You're talking about sacrificing the MVP? Mind you, me and him got beef. They starting me, got him coming off the bench. I can laugh about it now because it's partly entertaining, but they got Russ coming off the bench and got Pat Bev starting in front of him. You know what I'm saying? "So, like, he still kept it core. He still was professional. He still came in and did everything right. Every team dinner, every on time, everything stretched with the team. He did everything correct, man. He did everything correct. So, bittersweet to me because I'm going to keep it a buck." BasketNews
