LeBron James and Patrick Beverley got into a pushing match during the Cleveland Cavaliers–Houston Rockets game on Sunday.
Patrick Beverley is not scared of anybody… even the best player in the NBA.
The Houston Rockets point guard got into a mini-fight with LeBron James after he took a charge on James during the Cavaliers-Rockets game on Sunday.

Given the tenacity that Beverely plays with, no one should be surprised that he was willing to get into it with James.
Fortunately for all parties involved, the fight was broken up before it escalated further than each pushing the other.
However, the game continued to get chippy following the LeBron-Beverley incident, as Timofey Mozgov and Trevor Ariza started barking at each other shortly thereafter.
Now Mozgov & Ariza getting into it. J.R. Smith is the guy trying to keep Mozgov cool.

Then, James Harden kicked LeBron James in the groin like he was doing a Ndamukong Suh impression.
We’re a few months away from playoff basketball, but when two teams are as good as the Cavs and Rockets are, things are bound to get intense.
The Cavs entered the game with a record of 37-23 while Houston is 40-18.
