Kendrick Perkins shreds JJ Redick for not being accountable after scathing Lakers rant
NY Post
ESPN’s Kendrick Perkins is pointing the finger at the man he believes always points the finger.
Following the Lakers’ 119-96 home Christmas loss to the Rockets, head coach JJ Redick ripped into his “terrible” team for the inexcusable effort.
He also lit into his team earlier in the week after another lopsided loss to the Suns.
“Yeah, two words of the day were effort and execution. When we’ve done both those things at a high level, we’ve been a good basketball team. When we haven’t, we’re a terrible basketball team,” Redick said.
He scorched them without mentioning who the real problem from his point of view, but did say it has been “pretty consistent” who has lacked effort and care for the team.
Perkins thought that rant in itself was terrible.
