Kendrick Perkins traded to Thunder, Jeff Green, Nenad Krstic to Celtics

[Naruto-sama]

Shaq/JO front court wont hold up in the playoffs
kristic is trash to be frank but maybe this opens up the door for Sheed to return

Shaaq willl be fiine and bettter offensee than Perrk as loong as he doessn't get huurt and JO can plaay filler minnutes

[DuMa]

i can only see this being good if KG can turn jeff green into a mini-kg at the 3spot.

Bulls matchup better now. Taj vs Jeff Green. Nice
Bradley will get playing time which is good. C's got some scoring off their bench, which they needed, and I think perk was a little injured again so....maybe that's part of why they traded him. But if the C's aren't healthy come the playoffs....could regret this dearly.

[MMM]

Losing Nate hurts too as he has proven to be a goof addition for Boston to give Rondo rest

dumb dumb dumb

With West back Nate wasn't going to see many mins anyway.

Danny Ainge just gave Miami the Eastern Conference crown.

Why in the world would you want to rely apon the health of Shaq and Jermaine O'Neal going into the post-season? Terrible.

Perkins is arguably the best 1-1 post defender in the league, and exceptional on the pick and roll as well.

I know the Celtics lost Marquise Daniels, but Big Depth >>>> Wing depth. Terrible Move in my opinion.

I know it's shocking that Boston would move Perkins mid season... but getting Jeff Green and Nenad Kristic is a good deal. And Perkins is exactly what OKC needed as well.

isnt green a RFA this offseason? Really, I dont like it. Kristic is not great and now they have a limited frontcourt (perhaps perks knee was worse than it has been made out to be?). Are they really going to sign green long term this offseason? Nate was also a little sparkplug for them. Boston just hurt their title chances this year IMO.

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

nate is involved too? i cant find a source that confirms that

yes he is...wow

[chazzy]

Rondo/West
Allen/Wafer or Quis
Pierce/Green
Garnett/Baby
Shaq/Kristic

Is this what it looks like now Boston fans?

[G-Funk]

why boston? I would had rather won a ring and let Perkins walk for nothing than to trade him away and decrease my chances.

[icewill36]

damn..... if only okc had three point shooting they would be extremely dangerous

[kaiiu]

Damn that 3 by green yesterday was the last straw

[Kingsfans818]

Green is the best play in the trade IMO but he doesn't really do much to help Boston. Nate was also huge off the bench @ the playoffs last year -- hit a lot of big shots -- Boston regressed

OKC also loses a lot offensive power with a Ibaka/Perkins lineup because teams can clog the middle.. Green as a stretch 4 really opened the lanes for Durant/Westbrooke.. If nothing else their going to have to insert a shooter into the SG spot now

[DeronMillsap]

Boston gotta bring Sheed back if they're losing Perks.

Do they have room for a 15th player?

[The_Yearning]

Rondo/West
Allen/Wafer or Quis
Pierce/Green
Garnett/Baby
Shaq/Kristic

Is this what it looks like now Boston fans?

They also got JO, Erden, and Harangody.

That's a lot of fouls right there.

[PJR]

Kristic is awful FYI.
