You know Nba players have lives outside of basketball right? Unless there is something involving basketball that you didnt post, it could be anything. He could be talking about changing the channel...

I wouldnt think anything of this, other than the fact that he deleted the tweet. Seems more suspicious now...

He only played 16 minutes last night. He wasn't in at crunch time. In terms of minutes played, he ranked 9th out of the 11 man rotation. He was probably frustrated, then sent a stupid tweet out, then was either told to delete it or realized it was immature.

I think he sees him self falling out of favor in the rotation, and probably would like to play more. I really doubt OKC moves him this year however.

With him deleting the tweet just makes it obvious it was about basketball.

I know NBA players have lives outside of basketball. I mean if it's a personnel issue then why post it online for everyone to see and read? Personally Perkins is a little frustrated because of his playing time, however I could be wrong. It's strange to see him post his thoughts then delete it.

Everyone was always going to jump to the conclusion that it was about basketball. The fact he deleted it, coupled with his lack of playing time in the previous game made it seem like that was the case.

Regardless of what it is about, Perkins will no doubt be in OKC for the foreseeable future. Even if he wanted out, who on earth is going to take him and what could OKC even get in return?

Maybe the change he's hoping for is related to making a positive impact on the game? :)
