Kendrick Perkins - Canton's Enforcer

[Kypus]

Yeah, I'm thinking it's almost completely moot at this point too since Marion is back and we can't run a 10-man rotation in the playoffs, obviously.

I'd just give him enough burn here and there (maybe 8 mins) in blowouts to keep him from becoming a complete corpse.

Its almost impossible to believe he was starting for okc not long ago. I'd almost prefer Haywood because he is really big.

Watching Haywood run makes me feel really sad and empty inside. I just can't believe he's in the NBA. Perkins isn't much better, but at least he doesn't always look like he's walking on fire.

Im not sure what OKC games some of you watched if any the last two years, Perk is playing the exact same no better, no worse. He never was going to be more than 3rd big off the bench here or hell most play off bound teams.

I don't really agree.. Kendrick has zero lateral quickness (to say the least) - he can't stay in front of almost anyone currently in the NBA. So he leans on guys and when that fails starts slapping away. He just... he barely belongs in the NBA anymore.

Okay. Thanks for weighing in. I didn't want to trust only my eyes.

Since joining the Cavs Perkins' foul rate has nearly doubled. I'm not sure how you can have this guy on the court at all.

Was the MVP tonight.

Where's the gif with him and Shump?

 

[melecoaze]

Dude's automatic from mid-range. Can't wait until we unleash his 3pt shot in the playoffs.

Beautiful

Well - We did bring him here to be the muscle from tuscl - #PerkinsIsJerkin

 

[Surge]

He sucks but he's ours so.... Go Perk?

 

[Nathan S]

7.4 Fouls per 36. So the people talking beforehand about how he can give us 6 "good fouls" a game must be thrilled, right?

 

[Ohdang]

All he has to do is clothesline James Harden one time in a Cavaliers jersey and I will forever love the signing.

Big Perk telling it like it is.....someone talking some sense to these reporters.....

Kendrick Perkins says you’re blowing the LeBron James/Kevin Love thing way out of proportion

“What people don’t understand is that this is not a place that requires you to be best friends,” Perkins told CBSSports.com before the Cleveland Cavaliers practiced at Baruch College on Thursday. “I think sometimes people don’t realize that this is work for us. So when you go to work every day, that doesn’t mean your co-worker has to be your best friend. This is our job. You don’t have to be best friends to come out here and work together…”

“I turn on ESPN and I see, ‘No Love for K-Love,’ or something like that, and it’s kind of silly to me,” Perkins said. “I haven’t seen anything to the point that it’s drama. … I don’t think Ray and KG were best buddies in Boston. I was best friends with Rondo. I hung out with KG a little bit, but I wasn’t best friends with him.”
