It's funny how Danny's Defenders now live in an alternate reality where Perkins was the cause of everything that was wrong with the Celtics, until, Thank God, Ainge got rid of him, and now he's the cause of everything wrong with the Thunder.

the thunder are struggling to find someone to guard dirk. do you think jeff green is better suited to guard him than the likes of perk, ibaka, collison?

the thunder might have screwed up in the trade because they brought perk in for the sole purpose of guarding tim duncan, bynum, and/or gasol. clearly that plan failed.

To me, the youth and "too old" arguments are not valid or too over stated sometimes.

I think the biggest reason for breakdowns is fatigue.

When Harden fouled out, a big key component for the Thunder's bench, that took a lot of wind out of OKC's sails.

Coach Scott Brooks didn't rest his stars enough.

Young and aged veterans are not immune to physical and mental fatigue.

Even Lebron James is not immune, hence the "he quit" label last post season.

Dirk seems like too much for Green to handle.

I know we collapsed a lot in fourth quarters but not many times did we have an epic collapse of 15 points in under 4 minutes. That was crazy. I nodded off when the Thunder went up 15, opened my eyes with 6 seconds left to see Dirk hit a tying free throw. I couldnt believe it, what an epic epic collapse bu the T men.

Didn't the Cs have one like this against Miami a couple weeks back?

Uh, it seems like Danny's critics are the ones who indulge in magical thinking about how Perk would have solved every problem Boston had this past post-season, no matter what the numbers say he's producing for OKC.
