Kendrick Perkins Reveals That James Harden Was Awful In 2012 Finals Due To Partying In Miami Strip Clubs

A lot of noise had been surrounding James Harden before his trade to the Brooklyn Nets.

It started when the All-Star missed his practice start with the Houston Rockets, due to COVID-19 protocols after attending the birthday party of Lil Baby and hanging around in various Vegas and Atlanta Strip Clubs.

We knew that James Harden has a thing for strip clubs, one has his jersey retired, and there even is a direct correlation between Harden’s bad road games and the quality of strip clubs in the respective cities.

But according to Kedrick Perkins, Harden frequently visiting strip clubs hindered him to perform well in the 2012 NBA Finals, which makes sense since half the games were in Miami. 

“When we went to Miami we couldn’t get a win to save our life, Russ and KD came to play, I had a couple double doubles, Serge was doing pretty good but man James ain’t gives us shit and you know why. Motherfucker, King Of Diamonds caught a hold of his ass. In San Antonio he didn’t have a damn thing to do, when we got to Miami there was everything to do and you couldn’t get that motherfucker to buy a bucket in that motherfucker,”

Houston fans don’t like me tweeting it, so here’s the clip for reference and also for proper credit. If you don’t already listen, Matt and Stephen are great! (Disclaimer: NSFW/language) pic.twitter.com/x03GMxR5dK
