It is impossible to say whether such fans were already tiring Beverley's patience or whether it was just a random outburst of anger at the frustrating situation the team was going through.

The player still decided to cause harm after the end of the match, when he refused to answer questions from Melinda Adams, from the North American “ESPN”, even asking her to leave the interview area.
