Still starter quality? His once bad offensive game is now pathetically hilariously sad. He shot 32% from the floor and 42% FTs. I realize offense was never his strong suit, but you can't play a guy more than 15 MPG when that is what he brings to the offense. Defensively he isn't what he once was either. He is still solid, but not a world beater like he used to be.

But would you not put him on a team like let's say... OKC? Camby is a much cheaper option than Perkins, and Camby wouldn't have to be relied upon to score too much.

Perkins is complete dog shit so it's not hard to be a better option than he.

Still Camby shouldn't play more than. 15-20 a night

Rockets should have the Pelicans on speed dial and be asking for Ryan Anderson. He would be a perfect fit for that team beside Howard, and asik would be a nice fit beside Anthony Davis.

I bet this trade happens around Christmas once New Orleans realizes Anderson and Davis are to small to play together for extended minutes.

Doubt it. People have speculated on Anderson to Houston since D12 signed. Common sense dictates you need shooters around Dwight, and Anderson was a killer in Orlando when he played w/ Dwight.

Probably gonna be a tough year with my Celtics, I like Brad Stevens as a replacement for Doc, but the talent is seriously lacking. The Locker room could be a mess with Pierce and Garnett gone this year.

As long as the Heat or Knicks dont win the title, I'll be OK.

not to mention Rondo staying in the locker room. Nobody likes that dude from what I hear. And if they are as bad as you might expect, he will probably be the first to openly bitch about it. Rookie/possible pushover HC?? maybe disaster. They need to deal Rajon IMO.

oh, and don't worry, you won't have to worry about the Knicks winning a title any time soon. no offense Danny, lol.

Heat on the other hand... I would happily take the Heat over the field if you made me choose a champion right this second.

I think Stevens might be able to coach the young guys such as Rondo better than Doc. Doc seems like much more of a veteran coach, while Stevens is obviously more used to young guys coming from Butler. However, Rondo defiantly seems like an asshole, and I wouldn't be surprised if the Celtics unloaded Rondo to a team in need of a PG for some draft picks so they can start rebuilding for long term success, not short term success like back in 2008 when they signed KG and Ray Allen.

If the Cavs don't make at least the 8th seed I cry. Nuff said.

If Kyrie Irving stays healthy they will easily make the playoffs. Probably as the 6 seed.

Irving-waiters-Bennett-Thompson-Bynum with jack, Clark and varejao off the bench is a very good 8 man rotation.

Finally, everyone I've talked to praises Rondo. Glad someone agrees with me on him.

Yeah, Stevens coaches young guys at Butler. However, he never seemed to coach any egotistical, 1 dimensional jerks.
