    Beat me to it....Battier won't be going to Boston. Wish we could've gotten Perkins.

    If Perkins can stay healthy this is a very good pickup.


    No clue why Boston did this deal. No clue at all.

    Solid trade for both teams. I like Green on Boston.

    Awesome trade...but the numbers don't seem to match up, is another player heading to OKC?

    Weird move by Boston, all their size was their big advantage over Miami come playoff time.

    On the other hand, OKC is much better now that they have a legit, defensive big.

    damn jeff green for 6th man of the year. that guy can prolly come off the bench in boston and still put up the same numbers as a starter in oklahoma because dude can back up multiple positions.

    Great trade for OKC - get rid of 2 of my least liked players on the Thunder. (Green should be a 3 not stuck at 4 like he was in OKC.)

    I'm not sure why the celtics traded away Perkins. :confused:

    When they said Boston wanted Batt but the Rockets didn't want anything from the Celtics, I hope they didn't mean Rockets didn't want Perkins.

    Multiple sources on ESPN are saying OKC also got Nate Robinson. Now I'm really confused. The only logical explanation is that Boston's trying to build a group for Rondo when the Big 3 retire.

    Huge deal for OKC.

    I'm sure Morey was talking with Boston, with their rumored interest in Battier and surely they like Lee as well. hard to tell Boston's motives right now and why they would take Green and Kristic, though.
