boy these two clowns think they can huff and puff, disrespect or patronize someone just because the guy speaking isn’t black therefore in their mind doesn’t know as much about bball as they do, i repeat, clowns! and i’m a C’s fan for life i should be defending perk but i just can’t right now

Perk lost because he can’t articulate his thoughts, but how do y’all think Max is right?

I’m sorry but Harden is not on the same level as AI. Harden is Elite. But AI is all time Elite. And may be the best pound for pound player of all times, between him and Isaiah Thomas.

I love AI…………but that eastern conference was HORRIBLE in 2001. They beat the Bucks in 7 in conference finals and AI shot 34 yes 34% from the field that series

I’ve never cheered for any specific NBA team since after MJ’s Chicago Bulls era. But if I had the choice to buy any jersey throughout all NBA eras it would be:
1. MJ
2. AI
3. Kwame Brown
4. Harden

At this point I believe that Perkins is a robot that can only say what is opposite from facts. At this point First Take should debate who is more consistent with bad takes. Ryan Hollins or Kendrick Perkins
