By now, it seems pretty clear that almost everyone in the Boston Celtics' locker room disapproved of the Kendrick Perkins trade that sent him and Nate Robinson to the Oklahoma City Thunder in exchange for Jeff Green and Nenad Krstic.
Shaquille O'Neal was the latest player to voice his displeasure, telling reporters that he told Celtics GM Danny Ainge not to do the deal.
"I even told Danny Ainge not to do the Kendrick Perkins deal with Oklahoma City," Shaq told The New Orleans Times Picayune while in the area to be honored with a statue at Louisiana State University. "I told them I might not be ready, and I'm definitely not coming back. Those guys did what they've got to do. I wasn't surprised; I've seen it before. They say all that blah, blah, but you know it's always going to be something different." (via WEEI)
