NBA Twitter is surprised by former player turned analyst Kendrick Perkins and his Top 5 Centers in the NBA list, roast him for the same

In the last few years, we have seen the rise of retired players turning into analysts. We see players like Dwyane Wade make appearances on Inside the NBA. There are players like Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley who are regulars on Inside the NBA. We also have Richard Jefferson, Kendrick Perkins, and a lot more. A lot of other players have their own podcasts and talk shows.

All this has given the players a better platform to express their views. However, it’s not always a good thing. A lot of the time takes by these players turned analysts are quite off the mark, which leads to public reticulations. One such ex-player who has been at the receiving end a lot is Kendrick Perkins.

Kendrick Perkins gets roasted by NBA Twitter

Kendrick Perkins is known for his quite bold takes and his “CARRY THE HELL ON”. Recently, he took out a list of Top 5 centers in the NBA.

He added Nikola Jokic, Joel Embiid, Rudy Gobert, Deandre Ayton, and Clint Capella.

As expected, this list did not sit right with the good people of Twitter. They wasted no time in letting Perk know the same.

Well, it’s safe to say that Kendrick Perkins screwed the pooch with this list. Not including Karl Anthony-Towns, or Bam Adebayo, whilst taking Clint Capela?
