Rudy Gay Calls Kendrick Perkins a ‘Clown’ Who ‘Might as Well Play With His Face Painted’

Thunder veteran Kendrick Perkins has been talking a lot of smack this season, aiming barbs at Marreese Speights of the Warriors, and the entire Kings team, among others. What does Sacramento forward Rudy Gay think of all Perkins’ talking? “He might as well play with his face painted, he’s a clown to me,” Gay said, in anticipation of the Thunder-Kings game this week. From Kings blogger Blake Ellington on Twitter, via CBS Sports:

Kendrick Perkins spoke negatively of the Kings early in season. Rudy Gay: "He might as well play with his face painted, he's a clown to me."
