Pat Beverly gets the hype that Jrue Holiday deserves

[@offwhite6483]

For real

[@tubbylemon]

Pat is a little overrated yes because he got no offensive game at all. Jrue is a better defender and on ball defender and off ball defender than pat. I believe pat is a better defender when it comes to bigger players because he’s so feisty with his hands. Also pats trash talk is also a factor, no matter how annoying he is, he still gets in some people’s heads and messes up their game. Pat is also a better hustler, dive on the floor, go for loose balls, crash the O boards. However Jrue is def the better defender because of his defensive skills and discipline

Facts jrue is one of the best guarding guard's he play's rough Lillard isn't lying at all

[@danielroth3714]

He was incredible guarding Dame in the first round of the 2018 playoffs. Probably the worst series Dame has ever played by a margin which goes to show how good Rondo/Jrue/AD could defend

[@numbereleven168]

He plays extra strong on offense too. He uses his body alot. Alot of people don't realize how big Jrue actually is. He's not no little Guard, at all.

[@a.phelephe9220]

But context matters jrue probably best defender in the league but he didn’t shut dame down by himself, dame said it perfectly they trapped, double teamed him the whole series tho. Last time they played each other dame dropped 30 some and had sick move on jrue when bucks didn’t double or triple team

KD also said on an interview with jj that jrue holiday's really good at defense; gets over screens really well, moves his feet well, quick strong hands, can guard multiple players, etc. Said he gained a lotta respect after playing him in the playoffs.

[@JonReynoldsESQ]

Uses a lot of tricks too...he's old school...Stocktonian even...with the little grabs and nudges where the ref can't see.

[@johnkennethcosa311]

Kd also said years ago that jrue is the best defensive guard in the nba right now

[@SL-pg4dh]

@@JonReynoldsESQ Like Jrue said the refs let you get away with much more when you have a reputation of being a good defender. Kobe literally used to tuck his hand into the off hand of the ball handler, preventing them from switching hands.

[@TJAvant95]

I think you guys DO NOT understand how DOPE this is! These are the best of the best in the game, giving it up to one another, respecting each others craft. JRUE is the best defender and he is telling you how hard it is to guard Dame. then , on the other hand, Dame is one of the best players overall in the NBA. He is then saying how great of a defender JRUE is. This right here shows all NBA players are so gifted and when it is time for the great players to step up against one another...its showtime. 🔥🔥

Jrue’s offense is so underrated I get that he’s a lockdown defender but bro is a bucket too

[@freedbyyeshua533]

God doesn’t want anybody in hell because He loves us, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). We’re not sinners because we sin, but rather we sin because we’re sinners. Sin is the nature of our flesh that we are born with due to the sin of Adam in the garden. For someone to be justified before God they have to be sinless. We’ve all sinned (Romans 3:23), and the the law demands death for those who sin (Romans 6:23). God is righteous, so He must punish our sin, which is what He did through His Son Jesus Christ on the cross. Jesus is Holy and sinless, yet He received our sin when He died on the cross, so that we can be righteous before God (2 Corinthians 5:21). When He died on the cross, He said “It is finished” (John 19:30), which means He paid the full price for all of your sins (past, present, and future) to be forgiven. He was buried and rose again from the dead. God will forgive anybody who puts their full trust in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. We aren’t saved based on our good deeds, but only by the grace of God (Ephesians 2:8-9). His precious blood that He shed is the only reason why we can be forgiven of our sins (Hebrews 9:22). If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised Him from the dead, then you’ll be saved (Romans 10:9). You are born-again with the Spirit of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17), and are not only legally justified before God, but also are accredited His righteous (Romans 4:24). Believers live for Christ now, so get to know Him through His Word. I recommend reading the book of Romans and the gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), and watching Pastor Joseph Prince’s online sermons
