Perkins recently talked about the feud between Garnett and Ray Allen on reporter Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson’s show.

Question: "After Ray Allen joined LeBron's Miami Heat, KG treated him as if he didn't exist?"

Perkins: "The key is not what was done, but how it was done. You know, I was no longer with the Celtics when Ray Allen left, but the Heat and Celtics were The tensions and conflicts between people are real - the same is true for the confrontation between Paul and LeBron. That kind of conflict is no lie. "

"And you have to understand that the Celtics had just lost to the Heat, and Ray Allen was not satisfied with his role in the team. He started to appear as a substitute. Later, he rejected the contract offered by the Celtics and chose to join Miami - to be honest, he didn't even say hello to his old teammates beforehand. When you win a championship with a group of teammates, you feel like that team is a family and will always be connected to each other - no one should break that connection and maintain some form of communication no matter what. "

"But Ray Allen failed to communicate this at all, so the core of the problem lies in the way he left. His departure caught Garnett off guard, and Garnett must have been thinking, 'Damn! Not even a phone number? Not even a chance to have a meal together and explain things clearly in person? ’ You see, when LeBron left the Heat and returned to the Cavaliers, he had dinner with Wade and Chris Bosh and told them his decision in person. What Garnett cares about is this attitude towards his family. "
