Jesus, if Perkins posted Curry's December numbers of 19.1 p/g and 7.8  
r/g he'd be getting pimped as an MVP candidate. Heck, since the New  
Jersey game Jefferson's posted a 17.5/11.7 line and Celtics fans are  
ready to anoint him a first ballot Hall of Famer again. Curry and Lee  
is probably their best 4/5 pairing as Lee brings athleticism and  
defensive intensity to the 4 (where you really need it due to the  
quality at the position these days), while Curry is light years  
better, offensively, than Frye. I tend to think of Frye as one of  
Thomas's mistakes. He should have traded the kid after his rookie  
year, He's not as good at the 4 as Lee and not as good at the 5 as  
Curry. Of course, Lee's athletic enough to guard 3s, so using a Curry/ 
Frye/Lee frontline gives opponents fits. That is until the opponents  
counter with a small lineup.

"I have never been comfortable with people comparing politicians to  
whores. After all, whores are hard working, rarely think that they're  
better than you, never call the cops on you, and never force you to  
hire their cousin Bernie. All in all I think the world might be a  
better place if politicians were more like whores."
