http://www.undeniabletv.net/home/kendrick-perkins-deletes-twitter-account-after-griffin-dunk-.html … I really feel sorry for the guy lol but he choose to contest the dunk of the human springboard that is Blake Griffin . This happens to the vest of them I wish get would of handled this better but by the looks of it he’ll actually have a reason for his angry face next time he plays

Let’s pretend that Blake Griffin tries that same dunk over Kendrick Perkins ten times. Perkins blocks that shot five times out of ten. I absolutely do not think any worse of him because of that dunk, nor do I think he was stupid for trying to contest it. People get dunked on. It happens.

 Lets not take away from Blake’s freaky athleticism… I think Blake dunks that 6 out of ten times, gets fouled 3, and blocked maybe once… With that being said, Kendrick did what he is paid too do. He holds down the paint and its his job to go up and contest that. He protects the paint. 

[BlazermannParticipant]

I agree with you 100% ! That’s his job and he’s one of the best at it

Umm if someone doesn’t try to go up against blake Griffin going for a dunk then they shouldn’t be in the NBA.  Defense isn’t where you defend whenever they can’t embarrass you.  If Perk would’ve blocked that to the second row we would all be laughing about it.  He was doing what he is known for, playing defense.  If players just start hiding to keep from embarassment they should go off to europe.  Perk knew what he was in for when trying to block the best dunker in the game right now,  but the fact that he still tried with all he had to block it showed his character.  Its not like the thunder aren’t the best team in the West still.

 Agreed that eveybody eventually gets dunked on…….BUT NOT LIKE THAT!!!! CAN U SAY BAPTIZED LMAO!!!!

At first I felt sorry for him, but now he is just being a sore loser. So what, you just became the recent victom of the human pogostick (Blake Griffin). Guys get dunked on all the time. Yes, it was a vicous dunk, and yes Perkins prides himself on a being a defensive force, but get over it. Everyone has got to learn, everyone makes a mistake. Doesn’t Perkins know that good offense always trumps good defense no matter how great the defense may be?

I mean you don’t just go and delete your twitter account just to get rid of public humiliation. If anything this is only going to incite the public even more. All he is doing is feeding the fire. The press loves humiliating someone, anyone, especially members of one of the best teams in the league. What he needs to do is just laugh with the public humiliation he will receive, learn from his mistake, and do better next time. Basically just forget about the posterization. Things like this happen all the time, deal with it.

Actually he been deleted his twitter account.

[Jlv2011]

was not a dunk.  Nice hard layup though.

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

By deleting his account, he’s just made it even worse.

 @ Jlv

Are you serious with that statement?

[GronounoursParticipant]

Hi guys, here I go for my first post on the site. I hope you’ll pardon my English, I’m from Belgium (great BB nation as everybody knows).

To be dunked on is something that happens all the time; in Europe, people don’t see it as a humiliation (or less so). When you see a great dunk, you see just that : a great dunk. Not a "poor posterized guy, go and hide yourself, haha!". As someone else already said, a defender is supposed to try and block the shot ; if he does block it, perfect, if not, nice try.

To be honest, this "posterizing humiliation" is quite childish to me. Missing a dunk, airballing a free-throw: that’s humiliating. But being under the rim when someone happens to dunk?? What kind of "humiliation" is that?

[CodySLCParticipant]

 He deleted his Twitter because he tasted Blakes nuts thats funny stuff.

[Johnny Chill]

Perkins will flagurant foul the next person that tries to dunk on him.

[GrandmamaParticipant]

Deletes his account for getting bammed on…put this man on suicide watch

[CoolidgerParticipant]

Boy, I wouldn’t wanna be Ian Mahinmi tonight.

 

Or any Mavericks player intending on taking the ball into the paint, for that matter…
