"They have officially become the nursing home for the NBA" - Kendrick Perkins makes fun of the Los Angeles Clippers for bringing in Chris Paul

The Los Angeles Clippers have been highly active in the offseason following their third consecutive first-round playoff exit, aiming to bolster their roster around stars James Harden and Kawhi Leonard.

However, ESPN analyst Kendrick Perkins mocked the team as the "nursing home of the NBA" after they acquired 40-year-old point guard Chris Paul, questioning their strategy for championship contention in a competitive Western Conference.

Perkins argued that the Clippers should have pursued younger, high-energy players to support their aging stars and preserve their health, but instead added older veterans like 37-year-old Brook Lopez, re-signed 36-year-old Nicolas Batum, and signed Bradley Beal, who lacks confidence.

He specifically criticized the addition of Paul as a ball-dominant player who may not mesh well, suggesting it could create confusion and chaos on a team already lacking in depth, particularly at the wing position.

While the Clippers might appear improved on paper, Perkins highlighted concerns about their speed and athleticism, predicting they will struggle against younger, fast-paced teams like the San Antonio Spurs or Oklahoma City Thunder.
