Great news for Cavs fans. Kendrick Perkins gives us that needed depth in the frontcourt and gives us a nasty force inside. Perk is one of those guys that if he’s not on your team you hate him, but if he’s on your team you absolutely love him. I HATED Perk when he was with Garnett and the Celtics playing the Cavs in the playoffs in LeBron’s first stint here.
He’ll add toughness and tons of playoff experience while providing a veteran presence to help our young guys out. The more I think about this and the more I type, I think Perk may be my new favorite player.
The best thing about adding someone like Perkins is he doesn’t take shit from NOBODY. Here are some of his past brush-ups with players currently on the Cavs.
1. Just blatantly decides to sit on Mike Miller while he’s down
You can’t watch the above video and not laugh
2. Kendrick Perkins rips LeBron James after LeBron tweeted about Blake Griffin dunking on Perk.
3. Just this year, Perk almost murdered JR Smith with a pick
I doubt this has any effect on the current Cavs but it’s funny to take a stroll down memory lane and see who Perk has pissed off in the past. Enjoy being a big man in the eastern conference and having to play Mozgov and Perkins in a 7 game series.
