No Perk tonight against GS. Hope his shoulder is OK.

Ugh. We have no length at all behind him. Sprained shoulder - which is a perpetual liability with Perkins.

Further proof that a move for a big has to be made.

well, maybe we'll get to see if POB is worth his salt during some "meaningful" minutes...

I don't get it. When KG is out, Doc plays Scals for the rotations don't get messed up. But when Perk is out, he starts Powe?

Scal is a PF. KG is a PF. Perk is a C. Powe is an (undersized) C. See a pattern there?

Powe and Perkins only operate in the block, down low. Complicated to play them together. KG is in/out and Scal is more perimeter oriented. Scal+Perkins and KG+Powe are the more balance pairs.

Who do you want him to start at C? Scal? POB isn't an option at this point. Perhaps BBD is a possibility, but Powe stays around the hoop like Perk does.

we missed the beast tonight . . no doubt about it - we looked soft . . . oh wait we looked very tough with belinelli pulling a gasol impression flailing around all night . . . we seriously need to outlaw Europeans from playing, they ruin the game . . how does this no name get the benefit of the doubt against ray allen . . . terrible
