Kevin Durant and Kendrick Perkins
Kendrick Perkins was brutally honest when talking about Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets who were absolutely dominated by the Jayson Tatum led Boston Celtics. The series which was expected to be entirely one-sided in favour of the Brooklyn Nets due to the presence of “the most talented duo” in their squad seems to have no answer to the questions being raised in front of them. The questions come in form of the locking up of Durant and Irving by the Celtics defence, Tatum scoring one point after the other etc.
Kendrick Perkins is known for his honest opinion on any topic, no matter what it may be or who it specifically involves, the Ex-NBA Player always keeps it real and straight to the point, which is exactly what was seen when he spoke about Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets being absolutely crushed to defeat by the Boston Celtics who have Jayson Tatum doing all the job for the team. The most peculiar stat that came from the game was that Tatum had scored 7-more points than the combined total of Durant and Irving in the game, which in itself is a testimony to the terrible state of the Nets.
The way things have been going for the Brooklyn Nets and their star-studded squad which was expected to dominate the entire league, it seems as if there is no end to their misery. The team is now on a 3-0 deficit against the Boston Celtics, just one game away from the series defeat, which will throw them out of Championship contention, the hopes of which seem negligible for the team right now. Perkins was on NBC Sports Boston to talk about the Celtics vs Nets game and more specifically about the latter, who have shown that currently they have the worst possible form.
Let us take a closer look at the things Perkins said about Nets and Durant, as he minced no words in his aim of taking straight shots at the team which had been overhyped since the beginning of the season.
Kendrick Perkins ridicules Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets for 3rd straight defeat to Celtics
Boston Celtics managed to dominate the Brooklyn Nets and keep them down for the 3rd straight game in the first round series of the playoffs this year. The team has not only managed to keep itself away from the jaws of defeat, which is something that most of the people were saying in the first game where they won only because of Tatum’s heroics, but have rather showed why they deserve to win games against the Nets, increasing the margin of victory to a comfortable 7 in the 2nd game and 6 in the 3rd game.
After the Nets 3rd straight loss, Kendrick Perkins went all out to blast the Nets and their star player for a terrible performance this series.

Perkins was asked his key takeaways form the Nets vs Celtics game, to which the first thing that he had to say was, “The Celtics have snatched the Nets soul… they done made Kevin Durant quit.” And he also stated that the Celtics were punkin’ KD and the Nets entirely. Perkins also highlighted that Durant seemed as if he had no interest in playing the game against the Celtics. He also commented on statements made previously talking about KD and Kyrie being the most talented duo and he emphasised on his point stating that the Celtics made that duo quit.
Perkins was absolutely brutal in his assessment and didn’t hold back for even a second while making these comments on the Nets who now stand just a loss away from being thrown out of the playoffs. Let us take a closer look at the reactions people on twitter had to these statements made by Perkins.
