Brad Miller doesn't look that bad in comparison to Perk, but I'd rather go with a defensive big. Perks 1 point and 1 offensive rebound against the Nets is unexplainable. No one can defend it.

I see no reason to change anything. Perk is playing fine as a starter and Big Baby is adding something off the bench. Plus of course the team is winning, no reason to fix what is not broke.

Are you nuts. We should be starting threads about how Perk has transformed himself into one of the 5 best defensive centers in the league. That Bobcats game seemed like the first time all year someone has scores consecutive points in the paint against us. KG has benn getting a lot a credit and frankly IMO a disproportionate amount of it esp when it comes to Perk.

Also his offense is so much better this year its not even funny. He is dunking way more now than ever and has developed a very reliable hook shot in the center of the key. Yes he can turn the ball over if he puts it on the floor but in the grand scheme of his improvements that is a very trival quibble. Lets just be happy that we have a damn good center who is loyal to the team locked up at a discount price.

What a "frickin" ridiculous post.

Yes we did thanks to the Big 3 and the bench.

So what the **** does it matter what Perkins did?!

This thread should've been called "have BBD on the floor at the end of games" because I would agree with that...

If Baby would have started we would have probably won by more. Perk should only be used for extended periods against guys like Dwight Howard and Ilgauskas.

Exactly. The dynamics of substitution patterns in basketball tends to be a foreign concept to some. My perception is that the start of the game is primarily to get your main scorers in rhythm and to keep the game in check, defensively, so that you are not falling too far behind and pressing your offense.

To defend Perk to an extent, the turnovers would seem to be more a function of adapting to a new role and new teammates. As his assist/turnover ratio in past seasons was fairly respectable for a center. His hands and finishing should be called into question. But as you allude, it's quite relative to what is going on around him.

Why does it matter how much we win by? Are you serious?

Which way is the wind blowing now on this idea?

Big Baby is still better then Perk so I guess Baby still deserves the start. Preferably both would be backups though.

Glen Davis just needs to play consistently. He's the BEST player the C's have off the bench. Posey needs to play the 3 and Doc needs to allow Pierce to slide to the 2 on occasion. I'm sick of the Posey/BBD front court rotations. It's stupid, it sucks, and it's stupid.

The C's frontcourt rotation is passable as long as KG/Perk/BBD get the majority of the minutes with Pollard, Posey, and Scals being sprinkled in in that order.
