Bucks' Pat Beverley addresses Game 6 behavior on podcast preview: 'I have to be better'

Milwaukee Bucks guard Pat Beverley often encourages fans to subscribe to his podcast in postgame interviews After teasing Wednesday's version of the "Pat Bev Pod" on social media on Tuesday, he'll likely get a few new listeners.

Calling his behavior near the end of the Bucks' Game 6 playoff loss to the Indiana Pacers "absolutely wrong," Beverley briefly explained how and why he got to the point of throwing a basketball in the crowd twice at Pacers fans.

"It's an unfortunate situation that should have never happened. What I did was bad and that should have never happened. I have to be better and I will be better," Beverley said.

After admitting he was at fault and taking some accountability for the incident, Beverley claimed that multiple Pacers fans also crossed the line verbally with him during the game.

'Regardless of what was said ... it was more than, "Cancun on three,"' Beverley said. "Let's just say it was more than that. I've been called a lot of stuff in this league, I haven't been called that one. Still inexcusable, it doesn't matter what was said. I have to be better and I will be better."

Beverly also said he could have asked security to have had more than one fan removed from the game, but he thought that would have been too extreme.

"I'm not the guy to get fans kicked out neither, the things that were said to me, I could have got four, five fans kicked out," he said.

"Literally, security walked up to me. 'You wanna get that fan thrown out?' You can say anything when you winning, that's what happens when you win, you can literally say anything. People who spend money to watch us play. I'm not getting them kicked out."

Beverley's full podcast will be released Wednesday.
