“He’s a young guy just like us, just a couple years older. But he’s been through...”
– Kevin Durant on Perk
Aww, I still miss Perk, but it makes me feel better to know that he’s joining a team with such great character guys on it.

Floppy McFaker. Love the backwards flop like he’s going into a pool.

Perkins: 'There was a lot of crying' →
Sigh.
“There was a lot of crying, lot of hugging going on,” said Perkins. “And a lot of it was me.”
Ok, that’s it for emo Perk posts. Pinky swear. :p

It was nice to finally hear from Perk.

Damn it. Now I feel even worse. Perk is my favorite player. :(

A great All-Star weekend →
Now, you know I love Boston fans. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again that they’re some of the smartest, most passionate fans in the game. But come on now, where is the love for No. 34? I do have to call you guys out for voting for Ray over me on my survey last week – but I guess it’s cool as long as I’m losing votes to a teammate. But I got my eye on you now, so you know. We’re gonna need...

KG still has some fans →
For every Joakim Noah, Charlie Villanueva and Dwight Howard; for every kid who grew up idolizing the Celtics star, only to become disenchanted after meeting him face-to-sweaty face, there’s a young pro who still sees Garnett as the player they’d one day like to be; who doesn’t take his affronts as a sign of disrespect, but more a means for victory; who doesn’t care so much about KG the bully as...

Making nice with enemies →
I freakin love me some Paul Pierce.
In the weeks since calling out Allen for the 3-point competition, Pierce has combined trash talk and trickery, because, well, an opponent is an opponent.
His latest, and probably greatest, ploy came Wednesday night during Allen’s pregame shooting routine. Allen was at the far end, getting shots up, when Pierce had someone roll out the basketball racks,...

Pierce a member in good standing →
This article has some health updates. Looks like good news on everyone but Shaq (he’s not healing; he’s older than hell) and Marquis (won’t be back any time soon). On page two, this paragraph made me giggle:
Rivers on Rondo’s attempt to edge into a Miami oncourt huddle: “I didn’t like the huddle thing, honestly, I don’t think we ever need to do that stuff. The point he...

Von Wafer doing more than scoring →
It was interesting watching Von Wafer in person. He’s a total spaz sometimes, but hit some really critical shots in that Heat game. Every time he took off with the ball, I held my breath. It was a classic A/B scenario where you figured he’d either A) Nail a great 3-point shot that we desperately need or B) dribble into a crowd and lose the ball. I chuckle when he makes ‘em and...

Ray Allen eyes record tonight →
Celtics guard Ray Allen enters tonight’s game two 3-pointers shy of breaking Reggie Miller’s all-time NBA mark of 2,560. If Allen breaks the record tonight, he will have done it in 309 fewer games played than Miller. Allen has a career 3-point percentage of .398 to Miller’s .395.
Go Ray go!!!
