Zach Lowe, Richard Jefferson, and Malika Andrews participated in a passionate debate about the Los Angeles Lakers in a recent episode of NBA Today. Kendrick Perkins was virtually participating in the chat. Their debate centred on a hot topic: who would win the NBA title this year, the Golden State Warriors or the Los Angeles Lakers?
Richard Jefferson, LeBron James‘ ex-teammate, confidently asserted his belief that the Lakers had a real shot at winning the title. However, it was another former teammate, Kendrick Perkins, who made an audacious statement in favor of LeBron. Perkins boldly proclaimed, “First of all, when it comes down to the head-to-head matchup. Between LeBron and Steph – Steph without Kevin Durant? LeBron got Steph in his back pocket, that’s No. 1.”
