Kendrick Perkins Beast Mode

[RoundMoundOfReb]

Where do you guys rank Perkins compared to the other centers in this league? I say he's number one based purely off his 100% win record while playing this year.

Top 1.

Why are people so obsessed with stats?

Making the opponent miss, box out , intimidating people are something that doesn't add to the stats. Look at how opponents score when Perkins is not around..

this!

boxscore doesnt record those 20 illegal screen per game

[Fudge]

Telling you, we've been playing 4v5 for whatever minutes he plays a game for the past 2 or 3 seasons now. It's not fair.

[KobeClutchAsFK]

Dude is a complete scrub outside of his incredible illegal screens.

[TheCorporation]

They won though, you couldn't see his contributions because they go beyond the box score.

How great is our god? Kendrick Goatkins

[DuMa]

he threw some pretty good backdoor passes

[Mr. Jabbar]

lmao even his former nick name " the dwight stopper" holds little to no value now

Perkins gives this team things that no box score could ever record. In case anyone missed it, here is Perk's one rebound from the game. He may only have had one rebound but it was glorious and shows why he is the heart and soul of this team.

Holy shit. Look at that outlet pass to Westbrook right afterwards. Are you ****ing kidding me? That's the type of plays that don't show up on the stat sheet for you stat nerds to read.

Yep, people should stop lookin at the boxscores when it comes to GOATkins.

1) Everybody knows that the less blocks you average, the better, as you put yourself out of the position for getting a rebound or a box out when you go up for a block. We see this with Ibaka, who jumps on every shot and opponent ends up either inbounding the ball, getting an easy basket from a dumpoff to a bigman or getting an offensive rebound.

Perkins makes people miss without putting himself out of the position on the next play. He does not need to jump, because he scares people and makes them miss. This is supported by his Synergy stats

2) Perkins boxes out. Anybody who ever played ball knows, that boxing out is the most important thing about getting a rebound. Perkins makes twig Durant grab 8 rebounds per game and stats support the fact, that Durant rebounds much better with Perkins on the floor. That is why his raw rebound numbers are low, but he is the best at boxing out.

3) Offense - Goatkins gets regularly double teamed and thus creates easy shots for Swagbrook and Durant, who both shoot better with him on the floor.

4) Intangibles - nothing to say here. Perk brings experience, leadership and winning mentality. He is the brain and heart of the team.

Perk is a glue guy, the heart & soul of the team. His value does not translate to the box score, guys! You can't just look at box score, as Perkins does so much more. He definitely passes the eye test.
