  1. it doesn't matter who wins tonight …….. Nuggets are gonna win the championship who ever picks Heat or Boston over Denver needs be drug tested !!! Perkins must be blind idk what basketball games his watching maybe his own highlights cuz its not what everyone else is watching …..

  2. who does take Perkins seriously at this point? his takes are a joke, his basketball IQ is joke, and his predictions are laughable.

  3. Lets keep it real if the Heat go to the finals they would get swept by the Nuggets. Would not be a good series if the Heat go I rather see Boston which would be a better match up

  4. Celtics win game 7 in overtime by 13. I know it sounds hard to believe but they are about to do something that's never happened before

  5. Jokic led Nuggets into playoffs without Jamal Murray for two years. Jokic’s playoff resume is just as impressive as Jason Tatum’s. Nuggets just weren’t healthy but made two straight conference finals with a healthy roster (2020, 2023).

  6. I imagine They dont give a fck who is front of them, they have the best player , and maybe the third best player in the series and a well balanced ,unselfish and deep team, chemistry and a 2 time MVP very motivated whose name has been disrespected most than anybody's , maybe not Ben Simmons's..

  7. I REALLY gotta stop getting surprised by Kendrick’s horrific takes… He needs a whole segment just for him.. “ PERK OFF A PERK”

  8. The lakers were the #1 defensive team after all star break including playoffs. To think nuggets afraid of the Celtics after going through KD, Booker, lebron and AD lol please 😂

  9. So i wasn't a jokic believer but i am now. We have to stop thinking denver is overrated they are that team

  10. What’s up with Perkin’s beef with Jokic, this man didn’t do nothing to Perkins and Perkins is the same guy that said the Celtics had 0 percent to beat the Heat and now he’s all the Nuggets don’t want to see them oh please, worst analyst I’ve seen, bring in McCullum or Rondo who know more than this clown

  11. Well considering it’s perk…. Bet everything you have on the nuggets. Dude hates on jokic to the point of ridiculousness. Hope espn cuts him loose

  12. Perkins has to have dementia. Hes picked against the nuggets every round except maybe the first.

  13. Whoever comes out of the east needs to be worried about the Nuggets 🤣 they been resting since Bron sweep

  14. Perk said the same thing last year oh the warriors don’t wanna play Boston in the finals Boston will win in 6 etc and the dubs won in 6 and Tatum in games 5 and 6 choked the same thing will happen this year if they win tonight and play denver it’ll be nuggets in 6 and the joker will win FMVP

  15. Speak on that celtic pride big perk speak on it, they underestimated the defending eastern conference champions .🙌

  16. Gentle reminder the last time Celtics played Nuggets Jokic won with a 30 point triple dozen in 30 minutes.

    Bam can't hold Jokic but Horford can? Perk just outta pocket as usual. You simply cannot compare Jokics performance in the playoffs to Tatums. Jokic has played transcendentally. Dudes breaking WILT records ffs. Celtics had ugly games and moments in every series whereas Jokics WORST performance was a 50 point triple dozen in a losing effort.

    Perk hating so hard yet again and can't give flowers.
