A real MVP! Durant publicly mocked his former teammate Perkins for not being ashamed to invite credit

On May 23, Beijing time, Suns star Kevin Durant reposted a remark from Thunder's former teammate Perkins on social media and ridiculed him as a "real MVP".

The Thunder will play the Timberwolves again at home, currently leading 1-0 overall, and they are expected to reach the Finals for the second time since relocating to Oklahoma City, the last time going back to the 2011-12 season.

When the Thunder reached the Finals in 2012, Durant and Westbrook were the core of the team, but in the end they were defeated by the Heat led by James and Wade. At that time, Thunder center Perkins said that he was the key factor in the Thunder's ability to reach the 2012 Finals.

"Cumbersome? Let me give you some facts. Before Perkins joined, the Thunder had never made it to the Finals," Perkins said, "and they couldn't get past the Lakers with Bynum and Gasol's 'twin towers' ......"

"In that Finals trip, Perkins was tasked with defending Dirk Nowitzki in the first round, and we swept them...... In the second round, Gasol and Bynum will be faced, so let's take a look at the stats. Look at what they did and what they didn't. They did absolutely nothing. ”

"Then, it's time for the Western Conference Finals. Guess who has to defend the greatest power forward in history (Tim Duncan) alone? It's Perkins. "

In that playoffs, Perkins averaged 4.7 points, 6.2 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game, and as a starting center for a championship-contending team, his role seems similar to that of the 2008 Celtics.

As a true star in the Thunder's Finals journey, Kevin Durant responded to Perkins' bold remarks. He wrote: "A real MVP. Obviously, Durant is publicly mocking Perkins' invitation, and the relationship between the two has not been good before, and Durant has expressed his dissatisfaction with Perkins more than once.

Perkins did play an active role in the Thunder's playoff journey, but he seems to think too highly of himself. - Especially when Durant averaged 28.5 points, 7.4 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 2.7 steals + blocks per game in the Finals.

Some media posted a photo of Brownie in Durant's comment area, with the caption: "Perkins MVP." There were also fans who posted Jefferson's face on the show, and when Perkins said those crazy remarks, he was trying to hold back a laugh.
