Kendrick Perkins on Reggie Jackson
After the match-up of Los Angeles Clippers and Boston Celtics a tweet from Kendrick Perkins targeting Reggie Jackson via his personal Twitter handle was out. He isn’t really impressed by Reggie’s performance against Boston Celtics which was a win for the Clippers.
In the absence of Paul George and Kawhi Leonard, Reggie came up while dropping 17 points, 7 assists and 3 rebounds for the win also while playing some tough defence on the other end. Kendrick took on him after the game with a tweet saying: “Reggie Jackson will give any Coach a headache! He so damn careless with the ball.”

Kendrick called him careless since he had six big time turnovers in the game which resulted in loosing the ball while gifting free points as the Boston Celtics cover up the lead and bring it to a close contested game. Such mistakes can really be a headache for the coach while missing on his star players and having a close lead.
Reggie Jackson is one of the important pieces of Los Angeles Clippers since his synergy with Paul George in absence of Kawhi Leonard has helped the team to acquire many buckets. Since Reggie can take the offensive reins and create shots not only for himself, but for his teammates as well. Kendrick Perkins and Reggie Jackson have also been teammates at Oklahoma City Thunder where their journey together didn’t really had a good ending.
