Perk is a Beast!

Although Perk has his obvious limitations he would do wonders to solidify our defense in the middle and can give you 15-20 min. until a real alternative emerges. Would rather bring back Perk than bring in another PF. His contract sucks but is expiring and am sure OKC is going to be moving him at some point. Of course the option is making Sullinger starting center. He can play with size; but with Sully, Bass and Hump we were undersized. Sully and Olynyk maybe.

I don't like Perk alongside Sully or Olynyk. Too slow.

Perk needs a quick footed PF alongside him.

The only way I would bring perk back is getting another 1st rd pick with him . He would turn into the TPE for another 7 months as an expiring contact

NO!  Please, not again.  He was bad enough the first time around.  Why does everyone love this guy so much?  He's like a poor man's Rick Mahorn mixed with Greg Kite.  NO THANK YOU!

Lets bring back Acie Earl too.
Before a game on Christmas against the Pacers, Bird told Chuck Person that he had a present for him. During the game, Bird shot a 3-pointer in front of Person. Immediately after releasing the ball, Bird said to Person, "Merry F!#*ing Christmas!" and then the shot went in.

Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

we're trying to get assets, not dead contracts.

Perk is a Beast!

I think was a beast is more appropriate.   Warrior spirit damaged old man body.

OK, probably bored of all the Mello and Lebron talk to tell the truth. Also frustrated that we are so thin in the middle. We do need a beast in the middle - maybe not perk - but we need someone.

A first round pick to take him back...might be interested.

Anything less...no thanks.

Only reason I would even consider it is because he would be a known commodity for Rondo.  He still has value for limited minutes, but a beast...not really any more.

I would love to bring back Perk also. He would be a great mentor for the young bigs, maybe mentor them on how to compete just like KG did for him 7 years ago

Plus he is like one of Rondo's best friends in the league along with Smith, it might help make it harder for Rondo to demand a trade at the deadline.

If OKC is gonna include picks with it, why not? He's an expiring contract.
