Kendrick Perkins ripped Royce White in defense of Jared Dudley, noting that the veteran fits perfectly with the Los Angeles Lakers. Via Twitter, Perkins sent out a series of tweets to analyze White's comments on Dudley. White made some pretty interesting comments on how LeBron James and the Lakers passed on Carmelo Anthony and got Dudley.

Perkins admitted that he had to think twice before joining in on the discussion after seeing White's veins in his neck.

Perkins believes that Dudley is the type of player who'll do the little things for his team. He also reminded Perkins of James Posey — a player who can defend and knock down shots from deep. Posey was Perkins' teammate during his stint with the Boston Celtics when they won the title.

Perkins believes that the addition of Anthony or Dudley will affect Kyle Kuzma — seen as the Lakers' third scoring option behind Anthony Davis and LeBron James.

For Perkins, not only is Dudley the best fit because of his playstyle, but he can also serve as a mentor to Kuzma. He's not discrediting the talent that Anthony has. He simply is not suitable for this year's version of the Purple and Gold.

Do you agree with Perkins' points? Does Dudley fit like a glove with the rest of the Lakers? Or like White, do you believe that Anthony is being ‘blackballed?'
