I hope somehow the Celtics and Magic meet up in the 2nd round and they have to go up against Dwight.

We'll see how little Perks' impact is when Dwight is going ballistic on their frontline.
What's ballistic for Dwight? 30 pts, 15 rebounds? I'm just wondering bc I'm pretty sure the other 4 starters on the Celtics (all of which are all stars this year and 3 of which have a chance at the HOF) will be playing also. I also don't believe their now relegated to throwing a skinny 6'5" guy on the post to guard Howard and his Hakeem like array of post moves.

Point is, yes... they will now be weaker against Dwight Howard. No, that doesn't mean they are weak against the Magic. Just bc we saw how Doc decided to go against the Magic last year and it worked with Perkins playing a big role, doesn't mean they can't find another way to beat them without him. Most teams don't have someone that can stop Howard one on one but the Magic are far from the best team in the NBA. Perkins is not Bill Russell.

Re: Kendrick Perkins Traded to OKC

^^ Yea I just received a text about that. ^^

I wonder what the numbers are. This must of been another Carmelo situation (not exactly). But in that he wanted to sign a new deal before the CBA ran out.

Still kind of surprised the Thunder would trade for him so badly when he was hurt. He is young. So he has more time to add a few more things to his game. You forget sometimes with his old face that he is only 24 years old.

Reasonable price for a starting C.

Jap,thats what was reported. And if I know correctly, they couldn't offer him more due to their cap situation while OKC did a special deal to offer him more.
IMO you cant blame Aigne on this, they got something back for him while it was pretty sure that he would have left.
