Perkins is Montross. 8 - 12 points, 8 rebounds, 1.3 blocks a game. Solid NBA center, but not the prospect Lampe was, bad buyout contract or not. suppose, like ML Carr did, down the line, when he's more developed, Perkins can be traded for a better center or player. Banks is a bad long range shooter and he commits lots of turnovers. Very dissapointing. And listen to O'Brien's comments. Ray
