This is where worlds collide. The sentimentality behind rooting for Kendrick Perkins or supporting the man of the moment Greg Stiemsma. This is a debate that only exists on blogs and forums but that’s also kind of what we’re here for. So in addition to the 15 page topic currently going on in our forums, the fine folks over at Red’s Army decided to make the case for the Stiem-boat. The Perkins (more…)

Technically speaking: Doc tops in techs
Bob DeChiara/US PresswireCeltics coach Doc Rivers isn’t afraid to voice his complaints.PHILADELPHIA — Somewhere, Kendrick Perkins is proud of his old coach. After picking up his eighth technical foul of the season Thursday night in Milwaukee, Doc Rivers not only topped the list of coaches’ technicals, but owned a two-tech cushion on the rest of the field (heck, only seven other coaches have four or more technicals this season). Rivers has already (more…)

Rondo Has A Dry Sense Of Humor
If you’ve watched Rondo be interviewed for long enough, you know that he likes to deadpan responses that may or may not be 100% serious. I think deep inside he’s smirking at the whole world. Not everyone gets him, but I get the feeling if you knew him well (like Perkins and others) you’d find him to be extremely funny. Two examples from the All Star media session. Ben Goliver of Blazers (more…)

Former NBA tough guy Charles Oakley went on the Jim Rome radio show this week and sounded off on both Kevin Garnett and Kendrick Perkins. Here’s the key quotes: * Oakley on Garnett: “Garnett left Minnesot and hollered and screamed and all that, but he’s not a tough guy. He’s one of the weakest guys to ever play the game. He’s a complementary player and went to Paul Pierce’s team and won (more…)

I go way back with J.A. Sherman of the Thunder blog Welcome to Loud City, so it only made sense for us to do a Q&A prior to tonight’s game. You can find my answers to his questions on WTLC. Here are my questions to him. 1) So, if you had to do it over and had the first pick in the draft, would you pick Durant or Oden? Seriously though, how (more…)

LeBron James Is Pulling The Victim Card
This is kind of amusing in a sad sort of way. Who knew that a dunk in a game that LeBron James wasn’t even a part of could have created such a backlash against him? For his part, LeBron says that he won’t apologize. LeBron James won’t apologize to Kendrick Perkins, tired of blame game – ESPN “Did I call him out? I mean, did you read the tweet? Did I call (more…)

This Just In: Blake Griffin Dunks Well
Normally I wouldn’t bother sharing highlight dunks with you (though maybe I should) but this one kind of grabs your attention. And it also involves an old friend so… Daily Dime – ESPN So forget about the Clippers beating the top two teams in the Western Conference (Oklahoma City and Denver) on back-to-back nights. Or their barrage of four 3-pointers in a 51-second span in the second quarter. Or Chris Paul’s sublime (more…)
