Lopez average 8 reb a game last year which is really not that good in a team that shoots so poorly and this hear is is averaging a terrible 5.6. There are guards in the league getting more boards per game. Rebounding is all about desire and timing (just ask Kevin Love) and Lopez has very little of both.

Also to say no one could match Lopez and Favours in a few years is just stupid. That combination would be solid but I'd have plenty of PF/C combos ahead of them. Hell even Mozgov and Amare would be better!

Baron Davis has been traded to the Cavs for Mo Williams, a couple of 1st rounders have been swapped and I think Moon is going to Clippers as well.

No.

Shooting is a rhythm thing. Rebounds is more an effort thing.

Celts traded Perk and Nate Robinson to the Thunder for Green the Clips 1st rder they own. Love this deal for Oklahoma - not so sure about it from Boston's end

Yeah, i like this for my OKC boys too. The defense wasn't that crash hot this season but a starting lineup of Westbrook/Sefolosha/Durant/Ibaka/Perkins sounds pretty good to me.

Perkins can play the solid low post defense and Ibaka can fly in for the blocks :D

I did like Jeff Green but he really wasn't a PF and obviously he's not taking over Durant's SF role so he kind of had to go eventually. I still wish we got Tyson Chandler in that deal last year but this is good too. Nate should be a handy scoring punch off the bench too hopefully.

As far as Boston go, i think Green will play well for them but a lot is going to ride on Shaq's health now.

Problem with OKC is now you have 3 nobodies on the offensive end, so I'd like to see Harden start ahead of Sefo, cause you now have Sefo, Perkins and Ibaka who can't really play offense..

For the Celts, it's baffling, Perkins was the only big in the East who could match against Howard. Green doesn't play defense at PF, he's too small, but he's not good enough a perimeter shooter to play SF. I guess we'll be seeing him as backup at PF/SF with Davis being the backup C. Man Celtics just got small...

After looking at it a bit more i can see why the Celts may have made the move. Perkins has played only 12 games this year so they have the record they have without him. The Kristic back who is ok offensivly but again not great on D.

Green could be a very nice piece for them down the road and the Clips pick (top ten protected till 2016) is another nice piece they can either trade or use to get younger.

This should help their bench depth as Daniels is hurt and they are struggling to find a guy to spell KG & Pierce. It also gets rid of Nates terrible contract.

Maybe they thought they couldn't win this year so the decided to get younger and save some money.
