Just recently, Skip Bayless came at Kendrick Perkins on Twitter. Bayless started out by saying that Perk was LeBron James‘ new PR guy, as the former is pretty vocal about his support for the latter. This may be a reference to Perkins’ tweet about how LeBron James was the most athletic player in the NBA’s history.
Most Athletic Player in NBA History!!! https://t.co/CJWRoz2cQz

Bayless talked about this on his show ‘The Undisputed’, and later, argued about it with Perkins in a Twitter rant. Bayless started off by talking about all the times Perk has defended LeBron publically by himself.
Almost feels like Kendrick Perkins has joined LeBron's inner circle as No. 1 PR man/public defender. If KD makes case for Best Player on Planet, Perk attacks him. If Kyrie challenges LeBron as the NBA's most outspoken racial-justice activist, Perk discredits him as "distraction."

After this, Bayless mocked Perkins’ belief that LeBron James is better than Michael Jordan.
Kendrick Perkins: LeBron is better than Jordan! (Laughable.) LeBron is the NBA's greatest athlete ever! (Stop it.) What next, Perk, LeBron is Greatest Human Who Ever Graced the Planet? Where is all this coming from, big fella?

That seemed like enough to set Perkins off. He responded to Bayless’ tweet, calling the writer an old man and accusing him of stalking.
Skip did you forget to take your Ensure today old man?! I see you’re following Zero people but yet know every time I say something about Lebron….are you stalking me on the low? https://t.co/zm4BOKVsYu

After this, in some time, Bayless highlighted the latest incident about Brooklyn Nets’ Kevin Durant calling Perkins a sell-out. Bayless implied that KD did so because Perkins changed where his loyalty lies, after playing with LeBron briefly.
Kevin Durant called Kendrick Perkins a sellout bc for 4 years in OKC, Perk was KD's enforcer/bodyguard. KD thanked Perk in his 2014 MVP speech. Then Perk played briefly w LeBron and sold out to him. Now KD is the enemy and LeBron is Beyond Jordan. Mav/Rich/Randy/Perk.

Perk also chose to respond to this, and oh boy, was he prepared! So as to prove Bayless wrong, it seems Perkins went to great lengths to find an old picture of him with LeBron. In the tweet, he revealed that he had been friends with the Lakers star since 8th grade. They also played highschool basketball together.
