OKLAHOMA CITY -- Chicago Bulls center Joakim Noah and Oklahoma City Thunder center Kendrick Perkins exchanged some heated words inside the Thunder's locker room late Thursday night.
After the Thunder's 107-95 win, Noah's former teammate with the Bulls, Thabo Sefolosha, came into the Bulls' locker room to talk to Noah and other Bulls' personnel. A few minutes later, Sefolosha brought Noah back into the Thunder locker room, which was still filled with reporters waiting to speak with Thunder stars Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook. That didn't sit well with Perkins, who immediately lashed out at the Bulls' star center's presence before chasing him out of the locker room.
According to a transcript from The Oklahoman, which was recording an interview with Sefolosha at the time he brought Noah to his team's locker room, Perkins had the following testy exchange with Noah:
Perkins: "They just let anybody in the locker room?"
Noah: "C'mon man."
Perkins: "I'm just asking though."
Noah: "C'mon man."
Perkins: "Just let anybody in the locker room now?"
Noah: "You want me to wait outside?"
Perkins: "I'm just saying, though."
Noah: If you want me to wait outside, I'll wait outside."
Perkins: "Get your ass up outta here"
Noah: "Aight."
The two players then crossed paths again outside the locker room. More words were exchanged as Noah walked towards the Bulls' bus, but ultimately nothing else transpired.
The Bulls have an open policy regarding former players walking into their locker room. Former players go in and out all the time. Judging from this exchange, the same policy does not exist with the Thunder.
5min left in the game, up by nearly 20pts, westbrick and beta still in the game padding stats
wouldnt give 2 s if they got injured for padding stats
noah is french right? why he telling a fake ass thug to wait for him outside, either the french guy is going to get a beatdown or the fake ass thug not turning up...thats the only 2 scenarios i can think of
lol perkins fakeass tough pork
OP is a got
Thunder just being the most unlikeable team in the league per par
Perkins is such a got, tbh
I've never seen a team full of fake-ass s try to be hard as much as they do, tbh
"You talking 'bout meeeeeeeeehhhhh....????? "

The Thunder have always been es, they are just going alpha on the meter
they're still most liked by the refs though.
Maybe Thabo was trying to recruit Noah and Porkins felt threatened by another center
Perkins finally played some defense. If only he could protect the rim as well as he does the Zombie Sonics locker room.
Porkins is just a tier Dejuan Blair imho. They perform good against soft bigs but they're indeed mediocre players overall. I'd still take my Blair over pork any day since my has way better work ethic and his rebounding is twice as good imho.
