‘Big Smooth’ didn’t gripe about 82-game season
Posted Nov 9, 2014
Sam Perkins ranks 19th all time in games played (1,286) and 55th in minutes (36,598). The sweet-shooting forward/center known as “Big Smooth” played at least 80 games in nine different seasons and played all 82 three times. At 53, he’s not prone to “back in my day” crankiness, but he does wonder why a workload of 82 games seems too much for NBA players and coaches in recent seasons.
