"Skip Bayless, go to bed man!": Kendrick Perkins tells infamous LeBron James hater to go sleep after his surprising take on the Mavericks

Former NBA Champion and NBA analyst, Kendrick Perkins cannot handle this hot take by Skip Bayless regarding the Dallas Mavericks

The Dallas Mavericks came to Staples Center and annihilated the home team two straight games in a row. They took Game 1 113-103 on Sunday and won the second game 127-121 tonight. The Mavericks seem to have not forgotten the first-round humiliation they suffered at the hands of the Clippers in the bubble. Despite big performances from Kawhi Leonard and Paul George tonight, the Clippers still could not seal the win. Kawhi scored a game-high 41 points, whereas PG scored 28 points and grabbed 12 rebounds.

Luka Doncic led the way for the Mavericks, scoring timely buckets whenever needed. He scored a team-high 39 points, to go along with 7 rebounds and 7 assists. Tim Hardaway Jr. added 28 points, and Kristaps Porzingis made 20 of his own.

Kendrick Perkins tells Skip Bayless to pack it for the night

Tonight was not a good night to be Skip Bayless. He got to see LeBron James and his Lakers win, while at the same time, his team, the Clippers, gave up a game they could have won. It was the three-ball that ruined the game for the Clippers, as they could not seem to contain the Mavericks. The Mavs shot 18/34 from the 3 point line, as compared to the 13/33 by the Clippers.

After this performance, Skip posted a ‘hot take’ of his, where he claims if the Mavs keep shooting like this, they might win it all this year.

The next episode of Undisputed would sure have a lot to offer, as the hosts would talk about tonight’s matches and a lot more. As for the Mavericks, they would like to continue their hot form as they head home for the next two games of the series.
