Besides Orlando, the C's don't have that much to worry about being killed in the center position. The Finals could be different if they are fortunate to get that far.

However, the Celtics will end up being a 3rd seed.

I don't like the Perk trade. The only way this becomes a good trade is if he doesn't come back 100% for OKC. The Celtics are in WIN NOW mode so signing him or not resigning him at the end of the year makes no difference to me.

One.

Yup.

I guess you could say Chicago too, but he is not a threat offensively.

So the thinking is: we get the 2 or 3 seed.  Miami gets the top seed and takes out Orlando in the 2nd round, and we don't ever have to contend with the one center in the East?
Yup

Howard eats this team alive if we see him in the Playoffs. I was never worried about Orlando, but loosing this inside presence definitely worries me a little more than it should.
