...and has always been, fake tough.
My friends that I watched Mavs games with back in the day called Kendrick Perkins "Mean Face". He wasn't any good, and he wasn't even much of an enforcer. He just built a bit of a reputation as a tough guy by making faces on the court. Fake tough.
KG did this too but he was actually good at basketball.
Anyway, it just struck me that Perkins is at it again. He's attempting to build a media career in the same way that he built his NBA career. He's just verbally, or in print, making faces at Porzingis. He's doing his fake tough thing again.
He's taking a page out of Skip "The Fraud" Bayless' book. Make your way in the media world by pitting yourself against someone who people actually care about. It's coattail riding.
Always was, and still is, fake tough.

Always was, and still is, fake tough. Can't say I have thought much about Kendrick Perkins lately, but agree that his tweets are super-annoying in the same way that his play was on the court, lol.
Someone used to retweet him pretty often, and I did something to silence him, so I will now return to my blissful lack of consciousness of his existence.

There is nothing wrong with what Perkins tweets about the mavs. He calls it like it is. Says Luka will win the MVP soon and Rick Carlisle is overrated. Is he wrong?

PS. I really don't care for Kendrick Perkins and never did. He is attempting to be a professional. We don't have put up with them. We simply turn them off.

I guess. Except the shot fired doesn't make sense. I might have gotten my feelings hurt if I could figure out what I have in common with Perkins.

I mean, I've seen this brewing for the last week or so. His post makes him seem like the Perkins in all honesty.
