Kendrick Perkins joins SportsCenter to react to the Dallas Mavericks’ Game 4 blowout win over the Celtics in the 2024 NBA Finals. He then makes an analogy stating that he has a better chance of having pancakes with Beyonce and Oprah Winfrey than the Mavs have of beating Boston in Game 5 on Monday.

  1. We should just start counting the number of times that Perkins is right because it will be way easier than counting the times he's wrong

  2. Dunno what is going to happen in terms of outcome but the Celtics definitely aren’t going to let Luka look like a competent defender again

  3. well if the media are picking the cle well i think we got a good chansce mavs will bring back it home for game 6

  4. I hope Kendrick's words taste good because he will end up eating them if Dallas wins game 5.

  5. If any team that can make history come back from being down 3-0 in the finals is Dallas with Luka & Kyrie👍.
    Luka in six career elimination games:
    🔥 35.0 PPG (most of all-time)
    🔥 10.0 RPG
    🔥 8.3 APG
    What does Luka Magic have in storein game 5? 💫

  6. IF ….JUST IF..Dallas find a way to win game 5 even if is just by 1 point, ….oh boy , things gonna look critical for Boston, with game 6 in Dallas and the chance to force a game 7. BECAUSE MY MAN…..anything can happen in a game 7 , it can go either way. So right now, the pressure is on Boston , they just can't allow Dallas to win game 5 . Or this stuff gonna turn really interesting

  7. Mavericks, don't get too excited because you won yesterday. The truth is that MGM from Vegas paid money for the Celtics to lose the game so that the Mavericks wouldn't feel upset in their territory for safety reasons. The Celtics will wipe you out on Monday in game 5.

  8. MAVS can win, if they play even close to last game 👊🏼💪🏼👍🏼❤️☘️☘️☘️💥💥💥🤷🏽‍♂️

  9. All i saw was a Celtic team dat came to win game FIVE. At d end of d 4th its like d C's said to the Mavs, "all dat stuff y'all did today, i'd like to see y'all do dat in gm5,"
