Bibby calls out Perkins - Celtics Blog
With a throng of reporters waiting to talk to him, Mike Bibby took his time getting ready in the Hawks locker room. “He's got all these people hot and bothered,” said teammate Joe Johnson, who was sitting next to Bibby. “We don't want no problems.” Apparently Bibby does.

More Bibby Smack
RedsArmy.com - The Voice Of Celtics Fans — ... awful, I can’t remember a quote I heard 3 minutes ago. But I will paraphrase: “Perkins had a worse game than me. Who is he to talk? All of a sudden he’s some tough guy. Until he does something in this league, he shouldn’t say anything.” I’m guessing Dickerson bolted into the Celtics locker room and said, “Perk, Perk, wait until you heard what Bibby said about you!” UPDATE: The Globe’s Gary Dzen has the comments and Perk’s response. ...

Don't Make Them Angry. You Wouldn't Like Them When They're Angry [Nba Closer]
Deadspin — ... When Kendrick Perkins heard those comments, he had a rather terse response: "He said what? Coming off a 2-10 night shooting, you'd say something like that, too."

Player Poll: Perkins, Stevenson a Little Too High on Themselves
FanHouse — by Tom Ziller Filed under: Celtics, Wizards, NBA FansI love Sports Illustrated's Players Polls, in which player (or sometimes coaches/executives) are asked their opinion on a league matter. The veil of anonymity and distributed disrespect allows a look into opinions that'd almost assuredly never get aired in the normal flow of the world. The latest edition has players naming the player who most thinks he is a lot better than he really is. And we have a tie: Boston blowhard Kendrick Perkins and Wizards (um) blowhard DeShawn Stevenson. The leaguewide laughter at Perk's magical reformation as a star (as ...
