Remember how foul trouble keeps Perk out of games and on the bench??? He can now play more aggressive and not worry about fouling out. He will have Big Baby and Sheed for back up. I don't see Mikkie back so someone else will come in. Sheed was a good pick up. Remember how foul trouble keeps Perk out of games and on the bench???

Some stats from another player in his 6th year and at 24 years old: 27.6 min/game 8.4 pts. 6.0 reb. solid low post defender congratulations, you have a slightly better version of.....
