    Kendrick Perkins/ Nate Robinson traded for Jeff Green and Kristic

    I think OKC got the better end of this deal, if Perkins can stay healthy...

    not sure what to think yet.
    Perk has not been my favorite Celtic, and lacks offensive skills.. he's also not
    good at setting screens, always gets called for it.. but his overall defense is very very
    strong and should do wonders for OKC.
    OKC needs an enforcer like Perkins.
    Perk also is a lingering injury question, along with needing a new contract, and C's
    are moving first, because it was starting to look like Perk may end up in Miami.
    Robinson, well, no surprise, he hasn't been shooting well this year, although his defense
    has been better. I think they wil both add to OKC.
    that's one side of it.. I don't hate the trade.
    Jeff Green is an exciting talented addition who will learn
    with all the Celtic vets including Shaq. Kristic is good bench.

    as far as tonight's bet, it's bad for Boston, but they are still
    more than capable of winning and covering.

    Celtics had drafted Green in 2007, trading him along with Delonte
    in the deal that brought Ray Allen to Boston.

    this could ultimately mean that the C's are in the hunt for Dwight Howard
    in 2012. Kristic is a fine backup for Shaq this year and next.

    this is a great deal for thunder and a terrible deal for celtics...they gave up 1 good and 1 average player for 1 good and 1 bad player.

    C's just waived SEmih Erden and Luke Harangody.
    more to come. 2 roster spots need filling.

    btw Gerald Wallace is a trailblazer now.

    this is a really interesting trade....it seems that it doesn't make any sense for the Celtics

    I agree and they got Nazi Muhammed from the Bobcats. I can't believe they were able to get two decent big men. They went up a notch with these trades.
