James Harden a bit kinder than Russell Westbrook when discussing Patrick Beverley.

"I've played with him for a couple years so I know Pat. He competes his butt off, that's why he's in the position that he's in now. I'm proud of him, but tonight was one of those nights." pic.twitter.com/tOI7YmnA44

Or, as Pat Bev so eloquently put it: "I was on his ass."
