      KD is that dude at the park that’s hella cold at hooping but always jumps on the stacked team an if he can’t get on that team he won’t play hard for the lesser talented team so he can say it’s not his fault they lost 🎈

    Because of Westbrook, Beal, & Deni, they will be a top 10 team in the next 2 years

    If what Perk is saying at the end is TRUE then I completely understand why KD left OKC

      It’s completely true, I’ve followed the Thunder since they moved to OKC. The other part was KD having dinner with Russ, Nick and someone else and telling them he was going to stay. Then he flew to the Hamptons with Draymond, Steph ect and changed his mind.

    Win or lose the media will tear you apart. Might as well win then, KD good job.

    So Stephen A wants him to take a buyout and go to an All Star team.

    He’s got a talent but not for a team, that talent is rather vampiric that sucks the energy of the team, look at the teams he was playing for, he did not bring anything there, but when he left, he left them in ruins- Oklahoma, Houston. The only right decision about Dracula Westbrook is to throw him out, kick him out, donna need your triple doubles Dracula!

    It’s not what we’re saying, it’s what you’re saying SAS……

    How Steven A gonna disagree with someone who played with them? lmao max and perkins beat him in the debate and Perkins usually doesn’t have anything smart to see either.

    Thank you Perk finally we know some facts of what really happened in OKC

    Perk has a tendency to being on some BS but let’s be honest. The media hates Russ, he has definitely been taken for granted. Even if you say he stat pads it takes an elite athlete with a ridiculous motor to do what he does. Also, the media poisoned the Russ/KD dynamic .

    I’m having a Hard time trying to figure out who yells louder, Stephen A or Perkins

    Russell westbrook may have the mamba mentality, but he doesn’t have the high iq mentality!

    And yet these revelations from perk will fall on deaf ears. The media’s narrative of why KD left OKC will always be because of Russ. That’s the story they’ll stick with. Guys like Stephen A. Or Skip Bayless or Shannon, Jalen. They don’t care about these things because it’s not part of their narrative.

    WESTBROOK IS A GOAT. IF DURANT PLAYED AS HARD AS HIM THEY WOULD HAVE WON AT LEAST 1 CHIP. NOT MANY PLAYERS ALL TIME PLAY THE WHOLE GAME AT THAT LEVEL AND ENERGY. KOBE….Ai….Healthy D Rose. OSCAR Robertson.
