OT: ^THANK YOU, he's been trolling the Heat board for days now. I asked him the exact same question in our GT... :lol: He also said something about being our future 5'11 center...

As far as Perkins goes If I were OKC I would literally think about starting Collins over him and giving Thabeet more mins. Perkins is just so useless out on the floor that it's just funny...


Imagine if the Thunder had Tiago Splitter in the middle. Better finisher, just as good of a passer, greatly improved foul shooter. The post D would weaken a bit but the pick and roll D would be pretty good.

Been saying that Perkins is the worst starter for years now. I simply don't understand how this guy a starting C for a championship team. Perkins is also the slowest NBA player I have ever seen in my life.

No one, but they probably shouldn't have given him that ridiculous contract extension in the first place

Perk sucks. But OKC will need him when teams like Memphis (Gasol, Zbo) and Warriors (David Lee, Bogut) etc. face them in the playoffs

Perkins suffers from the Bruce Bowen effect. Strong defensively but so bad on offense he more than nullifies his defensive prowess. Only players with near legendary defensive prowess can pull this off - Ben Wallace, Dikembe Mutombo, etc. Perkins isn't a strong enough defender to justify his paltry offensive contributions.

He had size and girth and is a banger down low and it was idiotic for the C's to get rid of him at that time.


What are you talking about?

First of all, the Celtics lost to LA in 2010, not 2009 (Lakers-Magic).
Second of all, the Celtics didn't get rid of him until 2011; he played in the 2010 Finals but blew out his ACL in game 6.

I get the Perkins hate but when I think "worst ever" names like Michael Olowokani and Kwame Brown come to mind not Kendrick Perkins.

Sold. I'd like gift wrapping and you can put the receipt in the bag. San Antonio's too old, time to blow it up, starting today. :D

Kwame brown would actually be an improvement on a lot of nights.

Bruce Bowen could knock down corner threes, that and not turning the ball over makes him a Kevin Durant level efficient when compared to Perkins.

All of you are really overrating perk.

Probably not the worst ever but has a case for one of the worst that play significant minutes. Him logging 25 minutes a game is a joke.

It's "my" most hated player, he should probably get to decide.
On the other hand, if Perkins isn't he answer, something IS wrong.
