Hawks with jeff green my god
fukk outta here with this. you've been nut hugging GS and OKC because of their perimeter guys. you've been hating on the grizz because "they only have ONE(emphasis on one) who can create their own shot. now suddenly you only applied that to one team. you're better than thisAnd that is exactly what? Please don't tell me you're using what I said for what the Grizzlies need, then applying it to OKC as if one-size-fits-all?
it's not because the defense has been great, or that z-bo has been the PF the last month. no, it can't be that .it's been because jeff green.By the way, Memphis are 9-1 since trading for Green.
Yes I applied that to one team, because that's ALWAYS been the weakest link on the Grizzlies for the last 2-3 seasons (once Rudy left) - they haven't had a WING that can create his shot. I said they'll keep falling at the same hurdle if they don't get a proper wing. OKC have never had that problem and now the Warriors don't have that problem. And the difference in me talking up the Warriors' chances is because they have a COMPLETE team, they have inside scoring, outside scoring, players that can put it on the floor etc etc and I've always mentioned that OKC's dumb ass coach is holding them back from reaching their potential. Don't act like I've been targeting Memphis as the only team whose shyt stinks.fukk outta here with this. you've been nut hugging GS and OKC because of their perimeter guys. you've been hating on the grizz because "they only have ONE(emphasis on one) who can create their own shot. now suddenly you only applied that to one team.
You're better than to take what I said out of context and act like my 'wings that can create their own shot" statement is the be-all and end-all of a team's chances. That was only meant to be applied to Memphis, because that was their area of weakness.you're better than this

And so many people thought he was a scrub
Bet the Thunder want that trade back real bad
I said in the first month of the season that OKC should've capitalized on PJ3's production and traded him to Boston with Perkins for Jeff Green and Tyler Zeller.
as a celts fan i woulda blown my brains out and i really like PJ3
Boston really didn't get anything for Jeff.
PJ was looking legit then and I figured he could continue to grow on a young team that lacked real wings. Especially under Stevens.
Rondo would've been reunited with his BFF.
OKC would've won the trade in the long run.
It's funny but no one remembers how good PJ looked when KD was hurt.
he did look good. and i loved him out of HS and baylor..but green and zeller were my two favorite players on the team at the time. trading them both and having to try and survive an olynyk/perk rotation without any hope of them throwing olynyk in the bushes would have been the death of me. zeller is more valuable and perry jones too imo
Perk's contract is expiring tho. And I figured it would kill two birds with one stone.
1.) it would help with tanking.
2.) it would make Rondo happy.
Zeller at best is a 3rd big off the bench.
I also felt that Boston was better off finding a starting 5 in the 2015 draft.
I don't disagree with how Ainge has operated tho. He looks like a genius in regards to how he handled the Rondo trade.
