NBA2K12 Gives Perk Super Powers

Now, I've always held the belief that Perk has super powers. After all, he can stop a charging Howard with single coverage. That's a pretty good super power. Now, NBA2K12 shows that they share my opinion by giving Perk the ability to walk through players. I love it!!

Perk Hosting at Bayou Place

Vic Elmo & Kendrick Perkins (With Perk's wife Vanity in the background) 

I can go weeks without seeing a mention of Perk in the news in the offseason, especially when he's recovering from not one, but two off-season surgeries.  Today, I got two Google Alerts in a row with mentions of Perk. The first was the Hoops card below and the second was that Perk hosts Live! on Fridays at Bayou Place.

I had no idea what Bayou Place was so did a search and found that they describe Bayou Place as Houston's premier entertainment destination, featuring world-class establishments. Bayou Place is where Houston goes to play. I learn something new every day. So, I guess that along with rehabbing from groin and wrist surgery Perk is doing a bit of hosting in Houston, Texas.   Let's just hope that no crazies hang out there.  Stay safe, Perk.
