Kendrick, please tell us how you really feel!
NBA legend Kendrick Perkins has thrown fuel into the fire regarding tensions between Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James and the media. Perkins’ comments came after an interview with LBJ about the “Pat McAfee Show.”
Win the title 2008 With the Boston Celtics, Perkins has the problem with James’ constant complaining about how things are covered within the NBA. While talking to McAfee, James said he started a podcast with Lakers head coach JJ Redick as the league escaped “from the essence of a basketball game.”
“He needs to stop. LeBron James needs to stop. I’m so tired of him, because ‘Oh, how is the league covered?’ and he wanted it to be covered in a certain way that he wants to cover,” Perkins said in ESPN’s “First Take.” (Related: “This Man is in His Emotions”: Stephen A.

“This is with LeBron.
“And I’m a big LeBron fan. …The problem I have is everything that comes out of LeBron James’ mouth. No. 2, we’re in 2025, it’s a different era.
Perkins noted that legends like Michael Jordan, Allen Iverson and Magic Johnson all received criticism during the day, and that today’s reporting was no different from those at the time.
“In today’s game, these players are very sensitive. They are so sensitive that they don’t care.”
Stephen a Smith has just nurtured LeBron’s unleashing Kendrick Perkins on social media. Perk continued, “And then I blocked him on my phone.”
